I know it's hard (heh heh), but who do you think is currently the best at it, and who is the best at doing it (all time)?

Gianfranco Zola's not bad. And that Macedonian bloke Sakiri looked pretty handy to me :(

Not a corner, but I remember seeing a goal where Roberto Carlos did a hard cross that ended up going in, no fault to the goalie.
Mobile: Why is Seamen still in goal? You tihnk they would've learned after WC2002...

Real vs. Tenerife in '98. An absolutely amazing goal, nothing the keeper could do about it. I actually have a clip of it on my comp, watch it every once in a while, along with my other clips of RC (footballs human highlight film).

Not a corner...
Den Haag goalkeeper that kicks out the ball. But the wind is so hard that the ball is blown back... straight into the goal.
Weirdest goal ever I think.

Steve Staunton got about 4 in his career which has to be decent.

If any of you have the file sharing system Kazaa, search "Strange Goal" on video. Its a great laugh.

Nope. But i DO have Kazaa so I could try and look for it. Problem is that this was in 198? or beginning of the 90's so I'm not 100% sure if it's actually Den Haag... but I think so.
I'll ask around. Something that unbelievable should be seen :D

I actually saw that happen, too, over here. One of the local Victorian leagues, in Ballarat, the wind was so strong that the ball basically boomeranged into the 'keeper's own goal from a goal kick. I wish I had that on home video, as well...
As far as scoring from corners, when George Best was playing for the San Jose Earthquakes, I remember seeing him do that, and late in one game, IIRC from my foggy memory of my youth...
Cheers,
