The GREATEST Signature Moves In Football History Pt.1

[@ricardolombardini]

PEOPLE! Signature means they were the first to use it successfully, consistently and made the move popular. They don't have to create the move itself.

[@kristinnkristinsson1369]

By that logic the elastico should have been credited to Ronaldo. His highlight reels from his Barcelona and Inter days are chock-full of elasticos.

[@ricardolombardini]

@@kristinnkristinsson1369 you mean Ronaldinho, he made it popular in the 2000's

[@Zuk789]

Ronaldo made it popular towards 1999-2000s even before Ronaldinho . The Ronaldo we are talking about if El Phenomenon not CR7​@@ricardolombardini

[@jahmanihenry7513]

That robben cut inside still scary

[@bezoekers]

Le cut inside man 😁

[@123Todayy]

1:36 thats so brutal for no reason

[@ManavGoplani-w8d]

I would absolutely love to see the pt 2

[@nickabella876]

Jay jay o. Created the rain bow flick and did it more times.

[@jamesmccreery250]

Same is true of the Elastico.

[@salehseby9138]

I agree 💯

[@jamesmccreery250]

Correction, the Elastico was around well before Jay Jay Okocha. It was widely attributed to the great Brazilian midfielder Rivelino in the 1970s.

[@jzavaletavirasoro]

Di María scored his goal against France last World Cup using the bounce kick. When I saw it at first I thought he had gotten lucky. After learning he actually wanted to do that made my appreciation for the goal sky rocket.

[@ErikVomMars]

Not including Zidane Roulette is a crime! And I just recently learned about the rainbow flick, everyone I know just calls it the Jay Jay Okocha

[@michaeltrumph121]

*Maradona* was executing the *roulette* way before Zidane.

[@Jack-ht3fr]

no ronaldo chop 😢

[@jonBON12]

He hasn't used it since 2014

[@m3tyyy694]

​@@jonBON12 he does it all the time

[@Alphoric]

It’s not really a skill beyond the level of a step over He also wasn’t the first to do it - it’s like calling a half turn a foden turn just because he does it a lot

[@thegift9948]

And thank goodness for that 🎉

[@josukey619]

​@@jonBON12 😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹 bro disent watch football 🤣😭👍

[@souravkarmakar2515]

Zidane's roulette is one of the iconic skill move.

[@michaeltrumph121]

*Maradona* was executing the *roulette* way before Zidane.

[@hijisfriend9030]

​@@michaeltrumph121Yes, but Zidane was using it everyday. Also, it's not like one can't have similar signature moves. Messi's body feint is fundamentally different than the rest because how he mastered it but anyone can have it since it's a body feint.

[@michaeltrumph121]

@@hijisfriend9030 Zidane did it mostly at Juventus, at Real and France not so much. And he did not use it everyday, his use of it isn't that much more often than Maradona's

[@lwandomadikizela2213]

Part 2 should be: Ronaldo Chop by Cristiano Ronaldo, McGeady Spin by Aiden McGeady, No touch driddle by Lionel Messi, Berba Spin by Dumitar Berbatov, Paneka penalty by Paneka, Bolasie Spin by Yannick Bolasie, Hop kick penalty by Jorginho and Bruno Fernandes and the Step kick by Ivan Toney.

[@cheesecakevanila5624]

zlatans acrobatic goals

[@Alphoric]

Along with stepovers and kickups Like what are you talking about the only actual signature skill there is the McGeady Spin

[@mectrom]

Michael Laudrup's spoon pass.

[@ShaneGallager]

@@cheesecakevanila5624 They are just good goals, not specific skills.

[@ShaneGallager]

You have to show Zidanes 360 spin/ roulette, and the Redondo back-heel dummy. Djalminha's Rainbow flick was way better than Neymar's as well, he used his right foot to move it up his leg & his left foot to flick it over player's heads the one he did against Real Madrid is the best, he did a nice Rabona as well. Redondo did that amazing back-heel dummy against United. Hagi did drag-forward dummy, it's like a drag-back but you're pulling the ball in the opposite direction around the opponent.

[@brianhkdk]

As a Dane I was happy to se Eriksen on the list. A surprise to besure, but a welcome one 😉

[@michaeltrumph121]

La croquetta was made famous by Danish great Michael Laudrup , who led Barcelona to multiple league titles. Michael Laudrup was Iniesta's childhood hero, hece why he aquired the move from him

[@dylanjackson29]

Do a video on technique vs skill (e.g. Thiago/Zidane vs Neymar/Dinho). Either one’s history & efficiency

[@arthurqueiroz368]

really enjoy your work man, very nice to see kerson getting recognized, cheers from brazil!

[@michaeltrumph121]

*So much DISINFORMATION in these "signature moves" videos:* *1.* *The elastico* was invented by a Japanese guy called *Sérgio Echigo* - a Brazilian former footballer of Japanese descent who played as a midfielder for Corinthians. Brazilian legend *Rivellino* acquired the move from him, perfected while they were teammates at Corinthians, and made the move famous world wide in the late 60s and 70s. Ever since, the move has been copied by many Brazilian greats and greats from other nations too. *Ronaldinho* was simply lucky he played at the beginning of the social media era, that's why many associate the move with him. However, he did not perfect it one bit and there are others who have done it way better, especially in Brazil, *Ronaldo* being the one who did it best. *2.* *Maradona* was executing the *roulette* way before Zidane. *3.* Nobody knows exactly who invented or first did the *Cruyff turn* , however Pele clearly executed it and made it famous way before Cruyff. *4.* *Djalminha* was executing the *rainbow flick* when Neymar was still a toddler. *5.* *La croquetta* was made famous by Danish great *Michael Laudrup* , who led Barcelona to multiple league titles. *Michael Laudrup* was Iniesta's childhood hero, hece why he aquired the move from him *6.* *Maradona* was doing rabona's when Lamela wasn't even born.

[@fjr30093]

Arjen robben is sad❤! He is going left… and only left… and in the same way everyone knew what was coming 😂❤

[@SODAMNSPOOKY]

Make part 2 for sure this video was great

[@officialballculture]

Thanks, part 2 just dropped 🫡

[@jamesmccreery250]

The elastico wasn't Ronaldinho's, Jay Jay could do it with the ball in the air. If you asked Ronaldinho where he got everything, he says Jay Jay.

[@Josepllop87]

no, this is not correct either. The elastico was the most popular move performed by Rivelino, brazilian World Cup winner in the 70's. There's even a documentary of him talking about the move.

[@jamesmccreery250]

@@Josepllop87 The Mechanic! Rivelino was the engine room for some great teams. Read closely, I didn't attribute the move to Jay Jay, just stated that Ronaldinho got it from Jay Jay.

[@Josepllop87]

@@jamesmccreery250 yeah I know what you mean. Just saying that everyone in Brazil knows the move, Dinho meets JJ in PSG (if I’m not wrong) he was his mentor in many things indeed. The point is if you are Brazilian you know about the move and rivelino, but idk just my 2 cents logic lol

[@jamesmccreery250]

@@Josepllop87 I probably do over estimate Jay Jay's influence over particular skills for Ronaldinho. I have seen many gushing interviews of Ronadinho speaking about Jay Jay. I love Jay Jay too much! I have huge respect for Brazilian football and believe the top three players of all time are Pelé, Garincha and Ronaldo Nazario. Garincha has got to be the most underrated footballer ever from my perspective. Thank you for the correction and the opportunity to chat with someone who knows football!

[@jamesmccreery250]

@@Josepllop87 Ronaldinho certainly had some stuff of his own invent as well. Just not the Elastico, as we've been discussing.

[@DamianKnox11]

You missed Pepe and his leg break move.

[@senorbit2868]

The scoop was used extensively by Kanu Nwankwo, but his was more of a feint and scoop unlike the classic feint and chop

[@bardock2525]

For the mesut ozil technique, you should have also used the clip showing the most famous usage of that technique - angel d Maria in the world cup final 2022 vs France!

[@adrinebizi2319]

That Eriksen flick was first perfected by KANU Nwankwo

[@thandomvimbi1558]

I hope Zizou roulette and Jay Jay okocha step overs are here

[@adamluck3165]

Absolutely outstanding vedio, am die hard Middlesbrough football club lucky boro fc liveforever by order of the peaky blinders 🎉

[@cnovw]

Scoop turn should go to Romario! Some good ones you didn’t mention: Ronaldo chop, Messi body feint, Iniesta’s la croqueta (or Laudrup), Okocha stepover, Maradonna Spin (or Zidane Roulette). Honorable mentions: Ronaldinho stepover, Mcgeady Spin, La boba Di Alessandro, Robinho step-overs… there more of course such as Lamela’s Rabona, CR7/Bale/Honda/Juninho Knuckle ball, the Stanley Matthews, Panenka penalty, the Rivelino, Henry fake pass, R9 drag to outside foot nutmeg, Zlatan’s karate kick volleys…

[@fernandosousa6074]

The cruyff turn pele perfected first Elástico rivelino perfected first The scoop turn Romario perfected first

[@perfectcell1157]

robben's "cut inside" not veing included here is criminal

[@tluangteachhakchhuak9272]

The scoop turn is also used effectively by Robin Van Persie

[@ShaneGallager]

Djalminha did the best rainbow flicks look at the one he did against Real Madrid, I think he scored a free-kick in the same game.

[@dami007]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the "scoop turn" wasn't popularised by Christian Eriksen. It's been erroneously attributed to him. Nwankwo Kanu "brought it to the masses" during his playing days and that was his signature move.

[@Merkurio84]

Ronaldinho's the elastico move is actually The Culebrita Macheteada from Jorge "Magico" Gonzalez from El Salvador, look it up

[@iyiziraeli]

Neymar touch? Berbatov turn ( only seen him do it once but still cool), Zidane roulette, Robinho step over, Ronaldo chop, Marcelo stopping the ball dead

[@michaeltrumph121]

Maradona was executing the roulette way before Zidane.

[@iyiziraeli]

@@michaeltrumph121 ziziou was spamming it, so i relate the move to him. same thing with neymar and rainbowflicks. brazilians been doing rainbowflickz but neymar spammed the move

Absolute criminal not having the Ronaldo chop, probably the most iconic signature move

[@danc472]

Toni kroos when he receives the ball makes a little feint that confuses the defenders, works every time. ButvI don't know how is called

[@sykes5000]

"Rainbow Flick" first time I'm hearing that Neymar's signature move.. it's literally named after Okocha Should have done diving or crying for Neymar, his mostly performed move on the pitch

[@JR-yr6gr]

⭐King of la Croqueta 'Michael Laudrup' ⭐

[@irikefedavidjason8754]

The rainbow flick doesn't belong to neymar. It was made by Jay Jay okocha. Don't get it wrong

[@oghenovokarieren5343]

Jay jay okocha Created the rain bow flick and did it more times. we all as children tried to replicate jay jay's rainbow flick

[@Harooniey]

4:10 'That, and diving'. Oof

[@John14vs6_]

Please you forget the greatest Brazilian legend Antony who plays for Man United. When he does his moves the defenders just have to stop and watch in greatness and wonder.

[@nikolajjensen4453]

Absolutely. The legendary “Antony turn” will be forever remembered as the most dificult skill to master of all time

[@BRTxNL]

I hate that they give Neymar the rainbow flick, when I was rainbow flicking in games before this kid was even born.

[@slimscoped]

Hey even though i am probably really younger than you. Its not about who made the skill its about who did it as a main skill. All respects and i understand you.(my fav is neymar so probably bias 😂)
