Already a Barça regular at the age of 20, there was an inkling that the wonder goal wouldn’t be his last. Almost 17 years later, Messi has secured his status as the greatest footballer of all time.
the goal which he scored 17 years ago was so stunning.
3.Zinedine Zidane vs Bayer Leverkusen (2002 CL Finals)
Zinedine Zidane scored so many deciding goals either in the World Cup or in the Club side. one of the greatest goals, perhaps the greatest, in the history of the Champions League. And out of all games imaginable, it happened to be the winning goal of the final of the Champions League in 2002.
In that game, Raul Gonzalez gave the lead to Real Madrid. Brazilian center-back Lucio scored the equalizer for Bayer Leverkusen. Zidane scored a winning goal giving a real 2–1 victory.
4.Marco van Basten, Netherlands vs USSR, 25 June 1988

Marco attracted world football from the last of the 80s decade to the beginning of the 90s decade. He played the game in the highest Dutch tradition. His goal against the Soviet Union at Euro ’88 was always memorable.
5.Roberto Carlos vs. France (1997)
Known for having a rocket in his foot, Roberto Carlos has scored some amazing goals in his career. He is known for swinging the ball. In a friendly match against France in 1997, Brazil was playing France in a lead-up to the 1998 World Cup. At one point in the match, a foul was called in favor of Brazil.
Roberto Carlos lined up the ball and Fabien Barthez placed his wall, then the Brazilian took a massive shot with a strange spin that not only got through the wall, but angled and got past Barthez. This remains one of the most head-scratching goals you will ever see.
6.Ronaldinho Brasil Vs England -June 21, 2002
On the morning of June 21, 2002, Sven-Goran Eriksson’s side were hoping to beat Brazil rather than expecting. The Three Lions boasted a fabulous team containing the likes of Paul Scholes, Rio Ferdinand, David Beckham, and Michael Owen – yet they were nowhere near as glamorous as Luiz Felipe Scolari’s future champions.
Now and again, a Brazilian outfit emerges that’s incomparable with the rest. This was certainly one of those teams as the likes of Cafu, Roberto Carlos, Rivaldo, Gilberto Silva, and Ronaldo – not to be confused with a Manchester United legend – inspired the South American nation to their fifth and most recent World Cup crown in South Korea and Japan.
Owen pounced on an uncharacteristic mistake from Bayer Leverkusen center-back Lucio to make it 1-0 to the underdogs in the first half. At that stage, England was just 45 minutes (or a bit longer depending on extra time and penalties) from a semi-final against Turkey – a game they would’ve been favorites to win. Yet their hopes came crashing down when Ronaldinho placed the ball 40 yards from goal.
Ronaldinho also set up for Rivaldo with brilliant run and footwork.
7.Zlatan Ibrahimovic Ajax vs NAC Breda 2004
Zlatan Ibrahimovic started his career at Ajax and showed the whole world what talent he possessed. In this goal, he even shook the cameraman at one point.

Without any doubt Alessia Russo’s backheel, a goal that summed up the atmosphere among the Lionesses on their way to a historic Euros title. That’s why it is listed top 10 goal of all time. It also resulted in one of the tournament’s best bits of merch, inspired by everyone’s favorite Swedish superstore.
9.Diego Maradona vs England (1986)
Perhaps the greatest goal in soccer history was scored by one of its greatest players ever… Diego Maradona. After “cheating” by scoring the infamous “hand of god” goal by using his fist to punch the ball into the net to give Argentina a 1-0 lead in the 1986 FIFA World Cup quarterfinal, the Napoli legend would score a goal for the ages.
At Azteca Stadium in Mexico, Maradona would get the ball in midfield; and with 11 touches in only 11 seconds, he would dribble past every England player that was coming after him. While falling to his side, Maradona would pass the ball past the England goalkeeper for an incredible second goal for Argentina.
10.Carlos Alberto vs. Italy (1970)
Known as a solid right back or midfielder, Carlos Alberto was not known for his scoring touch but rather for his hard work. In the 1970 FIFA World Cup final against Italy.
In the 86th minute and up 3-1 Brazil would set up the fourth goal with an impressive team build-up. Eventually after dominating the ball on their end of the field, Pelé would receive the ball at the edge of the box and lay it off to the on-running Carlos Alberto. The team goal would seal Brazil’s third World Cup title for one of the best teams in FIFA World Cup history.
