The BEST FIFA World Cup Group Stage Goals! | 2002-18

[@mr.h9948]

Robin Van Persie's "Flying Header" against SPAIN is my favorite goal to this day.

That diving and croos spam header :)

both the Kroos and Özil ones hit different for me I was screaming and jumping both times

[@austinkispotta3561]

I remember seeing it live. This goal is even more crazy when u see that the opponent knew that Kroos will be shooting it exactly that way because of the way he is standing near the ball with Reus on front. And yet, the goal keeper couldn't save it.

[@mikie123]

Shaqiri's as well

[@alis1637]

bloke had mad skills. underrated player in the german team

[@padmystr]

@@JozoTm what always took away from that Van Bronkhurst goal for me was the fact a few seconds earlier Van Bommel had absolutely assaulted someone. The player wasn’t injured and got up and on with it but Van Bommel went in studs up over the ball trying to do the guy, nasty. So as great as the goal was it never should of stood, ref should’ve blown the whistle and shown a red card IMO. Netherlands were a filthy dirty team in 2010, it was a relief for every neutral when they lost

[@ThomasAng-kc5ng]

Germany 7- 1 Brazil is the most unforgettable result in my memory.

World cup 2006 to 2014 were the best so many legends and beautiful moments, I don't think we will ever see a world cup like those sadly

[@annastulli3549]

2010 and 2014 are my favorites. There was just something special in the air. From the football all the way to the atmosphere. Our country didn't get far in neither of those, but boy did I enjoy those two World Cups. I was still a teen then so it was even more special watching it through a child's eyes. It was just amazing.

[@Drissky]

@@annastulli3549 I agree man, I put 2006 as well because I was a little kid watching the final in a cafe with my uncles and it was amazing as I was the only one there supporting italy

[@theturkey4018]

We will. That's just the way it is. Not to discredit you, as I don't know you, but people tend to cling onto the past too tightly, believing it's insurmountable. You say this for 2006 to 2014, and younger guys will say the same for the current world cup (which is shaping up to be my favourite so far just because of the insane number of upsets) and the same will go for the future generations saying it for 2030or something, just as older guys pick world cups in the 80s/90s as their favourite that has yet to be surpassed. I find it always best to live in the present, as you could be missing something genuinely amazing as you keep looking back. But that's just me, and as I said, it's fine if you think this way

[@annastulli3549]

@@theturkey4018 I think a lot of today's WC has become too technical. There's just too much hair-splitting, centimeters, millimeters - all of it serving sometimes even as a prioritized resort for even a bit of an advantage. I'm not saying those things weren't present before, but in much, much less intensity. There was just more play, more fun, it was just more alive. Another part (personally) that's an issue is the time it takes place. The WC has always been a summertime thing, so that's also (again, personally) a bit odd now. Nevertheless, the thing I really like about this WC is all the (widely underestimated) African countries breaking through and getting stronger. This WC is just full of surprises and unpredictability, which adds to the excitement and tension. But also, I agree with you and the context of your take. I think a part of our love for 2006-2014 was the fact that we were young then. Teens and kids watching today's WC will surely remember the 2022 WC as a nostalgically better WC than the ones that will come when they're adults.

@@Hussein.27__ Nah I can't remember this one either. Distantly remember the player though. Probably not as popular as it should be because the goalie had a touch on it. But the chances of it going in were so high, if not 100%, no matter who was in goal. Overhead kicks, Taekwondo goals from Ibra, Rooneys goals from over 9000 yards, nobody can really make a direct comparsion as to how amazing a goal is. But there are very few goals like this, a player believing in himself so much and scoring from that distance with a volley. Maybe it's just because of the way he waited for the ball but he looked pretty confident, even though shots like this have a microscopic chance of going in.
