I'm partial to a few...

Giggs vs Arsenal 99 FA Cup Semi Final replay..

That goal by Bergkamp

Roberto Carlos that Freekick against France

Gasgoine Euro 2000 lifted ball over defender and volley

Rivaldo's divine hattrick

ooh ooh and Dino Baggio's shot from a mile in the 94 world cup

I'm partial to van Basten's volley as well, for sheer improbability value.

Pele's first goal vs. Sweden in the 1958 final - lifting the ball over the last defender and then a volley into the net.

Ari Haan vs. Italy in 1978 - a great shot from 35-40 meters out

Maradona's first goal vs. England in 1986 - Maradona beats half the English team single handily to score one of the best goals in WC history, but only the second most famous goal of the game.

Carlos Alberto vs. Italy in 1970 - Nice buildup, sublime pass by Pele and a world class finish by Carlos Alberto.

Four different type of goals, all on the highest stage the world has to offer. Depending on what type you like, one of them is probably the "best goal ever".

While long-range goals, volleys and team moves are all great, I personally prefer 'individual' goals that contain skill and a bit of cunning. I also like goals where the player opens himself out to make the angle for himself when putting the finishing touch to a flowing move. Meh, here's some to look at...

Bergkamp versus Newcastle
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vx16V...mp%20Newcastle

Ibrahimovic versus Italy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_UcN...imovic%20Italy

That Zlatan solo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ITRu...ch=Ibrahimovic

Cantona chip
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suoSo...search=Cantona

Rooney versus Newcastle (chip)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZD78...ey%20Newcastle
