Yes Bergkamp. I don't know if you have seen any goals he made, but I Nnver seen anyone like him when it comes to scoring.
His most famous:

Though this one, earlier the same season, is similar and arguably better:

Argentina have a multitude of attacking players to pick from. look at the likes of Messi, Aguero, Tevez, Crespo, Lavezzi, Higuain and the list goes on and on. but why do they fail against brazil? can anyone answer that question for me?
When they would do it, they´ll be invincible. 😞
Messi is an overrated player.
Nowadays the multimillionaire interests behind football provoke that as soon as a kid has some talent, everybody rushes to place him on a pedestal and all the brands start preparing their TV ads.
It is in crucial matches like Argentina-Brazil where you can see who is a monster player, capable of deciding a match (e.g. Kaká, Luis Fabiano) and who is just, well, talented (e.g. Messi, Agüero)
Originally posted by shavixmiryep its true, even now they still gripe about it. when Maradona came to Scotland as Argentina's coach for friendly, he gave a press conference and was asked about comments made by Terry Butcher who was, believing it or not , still on about the incident almost twenty years later. Maradona cited England's propensity for cheating and was met with loud jovial howling and laughter by the Scottish press. He is the greatest footballer that we have ever seen in our time, Messi, Ronaldo etc pale into insignificance, Maradona was a force of nature! i remember well, my own Argentina kit at the time, to the Scottish he was and will always be, a legend and folk hero!
You do realise that the only people in the whole wide world who don't appreciate Maradona are the English.
Now, why would that be? Because Maradona scored two of the best goals ever made against them? Yup. More than likely.

Originally posted by Dr StrangeloveI'd gladly lose a little dignity if it meant scoring the most famous goal of all time as well as the goal many consider to be the greatest goal ever scored in the same game
Maradonna was the one who lost his dignity, by cheating.
Maradona is one of the 5 greatest players of all time and only an idiot would argue with that!
