1
Carlos Alberto (Brazil)
Brazil vs Italy (4-1) 1970
This goal was a fitting end to the world cup winners Brazil campaign as they swept from one end of the park to the other without an Italian touching the ball. And the goal was scored in a world cup final !
2
Saeed Owairan (Saudi Arabia)
Saudi Arabia vs Belgium (1-0) in 1994
Known as the Maradona of the Arabs, I remember watching his amazing run form his own half and thinking he would be tackled but somehow he beat about 5 players and scored!
3
Pel� (Brazil)
Brazil vs Italy (4-1) in 1970
Pele scored with a brilliant header and this was the 100th Brazil goal in the world cup. His amazing leap to win the header illustrated what a great player Pele was.
4
Roberto Baggio (Italy)
Italy vs Czechoslovakia (2-0) in 1990
Baggio was a class player and he went on a mazy run beating several players to cooly slot home a great individual goal. All was forgiven for that ponytail!
5
Dennis Bergkamp (Holland)
Holland vs Argentina (2-1) in 1998
Bergkamp always shows great skill and he showed majestic control to bring the ball down and beat a defender in one turn before slotting home.
6
Archie Gemmill (Scotland)
Scotland vs Holland (3-1) in 1978
This goal was voted goal of the tournament in the 1978 world cup finals. Gemmill beat three Dutch defenders including a cheeky nutmeg before chipping past the keeper with his left foot. Class goal!
7
David Narey (Scotland)
Brazil vs Italy (4-1) in 1982
Ok you can tell I support Scotland but I always remember this superb goal that put Scotland 1-0 up, unfortunately Brazil stepped up a gear and turned on the style to win 4-1!
8
Manuel Negrete (Mexico)
Mexico vs Bulgaria (1-0) in 1986
This was truly a magnificent goal. An acrobatic and well executed scissor kick volley from outside the penalty area. Many youngsters would try and copy this goal over the years!
