Default Best goal almost scored.

Inspired by the other thread.... what I meant that beautiful play that did not end up as goal.

This one is when Ronaldo and Zidane were tearing up La Liga.

This is a video of Francesco Totti and Antonio Cassano vs. Reggina in 2003. They were almost telepathic with their passing, starting at midfield and winding up in the box. The video doesn't work at the end, but I'll tell you the ending: Cassano shot is saved.

Too bad that this two could not get along with each other. And i could not see the last 3 seconds. So I do not know the last shot.

Marcelo balboa's bicycle kick for USA vs. Colombia in 1994. What a goal that would have made. We were 2-0 up at the time and would have been 3-0. Instead we wound up winning 2-1

Well, they were practically like brothers at Roma, but once Cassano became stubborn and decided he didn't want to re-sign and left for Madrid, then Totti got mad at him. But on the field, their connection was almost telepathic:

That would have became one of the top 20 goals in WC history.....

Never heard that, are you sure you don't mean Materazzi/Zidane?

I forgot where I heard it. May be even over here in bigsoccer. Cassano used to hang around Totti's house. One day, Cassano was rude to Totti's mother and Totti confronted him or something liked that.... it could be an urban legend.

Hmmm who would be the leaker of such a story, Totti, Cassano, Totti's mom? Or there were other people present?
