The season is coming to an end

[Rickster]

Since the season is coming to an end I thought I should put down the top 10 goals of the season and we all can vote the best goal of La Lige 2004/2005. However theres still one more game left and there could be many goals in that too. It was tough but I had to exclude some really good goals to only get the best. Tough decision.

Rules:
1) Please do not vote according to your favourite player or because everyone voted for it, lets not make this biased and vote only because it's the best goal of the 10
2) After voting please put down your vote and tell us why you think it's the best of the 10
3) Please vote carefully as you can only vote once
4) The poll will close 2 weeks after the season ends


The Top 10 Nominees Are (drumroll):

1) Solari vs. Getafe (La Liga)
2) Ronaldo vs. Roma (Champions League)
3) Figo vs. Levante (La Liga)
4) Ronaldo vs. Real Sociedad (La Liga)
5) Zidane vs. Espanyol (La Liga)
6) Ronaldo vs. Valencia (La Liga)
7) Salgado vs. Villarreal (La Liga)
8) Raul vs. Racing Santander (La Liga)
9) Zidane vs. Sevilla (La Liga)

Hopefully the winner of the Best Goal Of 2004/2005 can be place in the Real Madrid Forums. But Im not sure, it's up to the moderators.


I myself haven't voted yet I'm not sure which one to choose, it's so difficult. If the link expires please tell me I'll repost the link again. Thanks for the clips RealMadridFans.net.

1) Solari vs. Getafe (La Liga)
2) Ronaldo vs. Roma (Champions League)
3) Figo vs. Levante (La Liga)
4) Ronaldo vs. Real Sociedad (La Liga)
5) Zidane vs. Espanyol (La Liga)
6) Ronaldo vs. Valencia (La Liga)
7) Salgado vs. Villarreal (La Liga)
8) Raul vs. Racing Santander (La Liga)
9) Zidane vs. Sevilla (La Liga)
10) Raul vs. Zaragoza (La Liga)


1) Great goal. Great first touch. Great control and incredible precision. Just at the right place...
2)Same great goal. Great first touch. Great control and incredible sprint. The rest is history...:ronaldo:
3)Awesome shot. The ball just slides in through a prefectly straight trajectory. It does just what it had to do...
4)The first contact with the ball is phenomenal. That's the best part. Then there is that half scissor and the rest is just routine or at least Ronaldo routine...:ronaldo:
5)Impossible angle. Just like Figo's goal, but the angle would have the edge...
6)Impossible control of the ball. Incredible self-confidence and a lot of flare. He is just having fun with Canizares and that other poor guy...lol.
7)The way the pass was set up is beautiful If the referee won't take control of things, Ronaldo will. The kick from Salgado though is not impressive at all. A short run and a lucky slide. It is not even a shot...sorry.
8)Good run from Raul and nice shot, but lucky. It was in the wrong side. The goalie was already there so if he had tried the other side it could have been better.
9)The great distance is not the only impressive thing about this goal. Presicion. That's it. Just above the goalie's hands and just below the bar...
10)Another great setup from the two kings. I wish they would do that every game. As for Raul's kick, a good left foot, but the rest is simple routine. There are too many goals like that so nothing special...

[RonaldoD08]

I would have to decide between Solari's (1), Ronaldo's (2,4,6), Figo's (3) and Zidane's (9).

Goals 1, 3, 4 and 9 are just beautiful. Great control and precision and lots of flare.
Goals 2, 6 are just Ronaldo copyright. No one controls the ball like he does in the penalty area.

[Rickster]

well are you not going to vote then, that is the thing that counts u know. i thought salgado's kick was a shot, or was intending to shoot n slip. but he was definately shootin without a doubt, but him slippin is another question.

rauls goal against zaragoza was great cos he lobbed it over the keeper n no u dunt see that being done many times so im not sure of wat u r tokin bout becos every otha striker wud have juz shot bottom corner but he decided the harder way.

rauls first goal where he placed it in the bottom corner was either tat or gravesans goal and i cudnt decide which one to pick, but i picked raul's over gravesan becos the buildup of rauls goal was intended whereelse gravesan goals was guti shootin n sum1 blocked it n it fell to gravesans feet n he took a shot. both were great but i saw rauls slightly beta becos of the buildup.

[RonaldoD08]

You should have checked these goals as well.

The 6th goal against Albacete.
The 1st and 3rd goals against Levante.
The 1st and 3rd goals against Atletico.
The two goals against Levante second game.
The 1st goal against Racing.

All of them are way better than Salgados' and Raul's goals. i didn't check the other goals, but I am sure there are a lot of other great goals from Zidane and Figo. Even Owen's goal against Brcelona is pretty good.

What's missing in Salgado's and Raul's goals in the pre-meditation. They are not 1st degree goals if you want to put it like that (1st degree murder). They are more like lucky goals...
Raul's second goal is better though. However the fact that it is too common takes aways from its impession.

Alright Ive got all tat goals including the ones uve listed n ive seen them n ive shortlisted them b4. from about 40 over goals ive watched i shortlisted them to 24 then down to 14 then down to 10. i have all the goals madrid scored. I told you it was tough

Let me clarify.
The 6th goal against albacete was relly good but against that 10 im not sure it and i sed it was tough

1st and 3rd of athletico were also gud but again compared to tat 10 im not sure and already sed it was tough. though the 1st one was not relly meant for ronaldo as zidane miskicked, but the finish was gud.

2 goals of levante were nutin amazin. the first goal from ronaldo was like a tap in from a on the ground cross right in front of the goal. the 3rd goal was ronaldo who dribbled round the keeper n shot into empty net the dribble was too common juz used outside of foot to push away from keeper. definately not in the top 15 at all.

1st goal of levante was good touch but again compared to the ones selected im not sure. the 3rd goal was alright, juz accurate finish tats all its definately not a top 10 of the season.

first goal against racing was in both matches werent even gud. one was jus a tap-in assist from ronnie the other was a header that was only decent nutin special. ive checked the goal from owen in barcelona and tat isnt top quality, the shot was down the middle keeper cud hav easily saved it, but its still a gud goal but not in the top 10 definately.


ive luked over at salgado's goal, the ting special about it is tat the ball bobbled on the ground, he hit it first time while it bobbled and he had intention to score plus the ball was goin away from him meanin he had to slide in to score.

raul's 2nd goal the chip over the keeper was good because firstly the buildup(which does not count much) then secondly it was a chip form inside the box while keepr is closin him down meanin he has to get loads of elevation n alot of dip. i dunt understand wat u mean by been done so many times, how often do u see a chipped goal over the keeper inside the box while the keeper is only about 5 yrds away from u.

if uve ever noticed, all goals need abit of luck. no goal is scored without luck, theres gota b abit of luck in it. so my explanations are justified as to y the top 10 goals are the top 10

[Rickster]

After looking over 7 times Ive decided on Nominee 1 Solari vs. Getafe because of the technique used to shoot from sideways half volley into the top corner alot of precision. Reminds me alot of Zidanes kick in the champions league where he took it first time.

[RonaldoD08]

Yeah but Salgado's and Raul's are too lucky to be good. Those guys didn't even mean to score. They just hapenned to be there and 5 second before they wouldn't even have dreamt about scoring. That's called pre-meditation as I told you. The goal should be meant and not a lucky strike...
Raul's 10th goal is pre-meditated, but it lack originality. As you said and saw all Ronaldo's goals are like that.

[Leon of Silvren]

I liked Figo's, Solari's and Zidane's hard shots, also the goals of Ronnie are just pleasant to watch, but here's my top 3:

#3: Nominee 4, Ronaldo vs Real Sociedad

#2: Nominee 1, Solari vs Getafe

#1: Nominee 5, Zidane vs Espanyol

Ronaldo's was beautiful, first the way he controlled the ball with the chest and then the scisor kick, very technical.

Solari's was an amazing shot, it was strong AND good placed, impressive.

Zidane's was a piece of art, maybe that angle is not the best to appreciate it but I remember it in other angles and I was impressed (if I get it on the net I'll post it), the dribble he does was perfect and the technique of the shot was also perfect, like Solari's it was a strong shot and good placed, and the space where the ball could get in was very reduced, that was also a plus, it was a very difficult shot he had to do, but he did it, and woderfully......

[RonaldoD08]

I would go with

#1 Zidane against Sevilla
#2 Ronaldo against Valencia
#3 Ronaldo against Real Sociedad
#4 Solari against Getafe
#5 Figo against Levante
#6 Zidane against Espanyol
#7 Ronaldo against Roma

However I am sure there are other goals who could make the list...

[Leon of Silvren]

Yeh I personally don't think Salgado's and Raul's vs Zaragoza should be there......

[Ronaldo15]

i must say zidane goal against Espanyol, then Solari, then Ronaldo's goal where he got passed the goali and the defender. Figo's goal was impressive too.

[RealMadrilismo]

Zidane's goal against Sevilla takes second place from me.

I voted for Solari's goal agains't Getafe it was pure class.

[Rickster]

Yeah but Salgado's and Raul's are too lucky to be good. Those guys didn't even mean to score. They just hapenned to be there and 5 second before they wouldn't even have dreamt about scoring. That's called pre-meditation as I told you. The goal should be meant and not a lucky strike...
Raul's 10th goal is pre-meditated, but it lack originality. As you said and saw all Ronaldo's goals are like that.

i still dunt get you, how can a chip, possibly one of the hardest technique shot to do be lacking originality? how can u say raul doesnt mean to score, hes one on one wif the keeper and he dint luk for the pass. you cant say they just happened to be there at the time becos that just go for all the goals that has scored in the world.

salgados goal was pre-meditated, he was luking to score. maybe the clip doesnt show it very clearly, but the ball does bobble on the ground when zidane passed it and it ran away from salgado so he had to slide it and he was definately luking for the goal.

its just so difficult explaining it to u... anyway ppl keep voting

In the goal you are talking about Raul meant to scoer. I don't see what you are coming up for.

As for Salgado is Ronaldo who passes to him so I don't think whether we are talking about the same clip or not. I might be wrong and you right though. In my clip Salgado was just a little too short to shoot so he slided. Not becase of the ball bouncing...

[RonaldoD08]

BTW didn't you ask for opinions? I gave you my opinion. I don't see why do you need to explain me anything or why do I need to explain you anything.
BTW I gave you an explanation at least. Leon didn't even care about that. I am sure he wrong too, like I am. Maybe he will even say so, but anyways. I still think there are other goals that can make the top 10...

fair enuf u hav yur own opinions. name me a few other good ones besides for the 6th goal against albacete which cud have made it, and the gravesan goal

[RonaldoD08]

I told you some and I am sure there are other from Zidane and Figo.

PS:There is no need to get annoyed if our opinions do not agree. This is a discussion forum so if we do not discuss what else can we do? I mean people cannot even agree about Real Madrid being the best team ever even though that's so clear...lol. ;)

BTW I could check some of the goals, but I will have to ask permission from Leon. I hope he understand...:D. He is a little bit upset, but he will get over it...lol.

[Rickster]

ive seen the ones figo scored and they were mojority from pens. he scored one in champions league but i dint think it was good enuf, where he miscontrolled it then halfvolleyed it. there was one from zidane where he headed a strong header right into the top of the net and straight at the keeper but i dunt tink it was gud enuf. theres one from albacete which zidane scored it cud have made it to the top 10. then theres zidanes header in barcelona but i dunt tink tat was capable of top 10 finish at all.

[Nikodemus]

I like Ronaldo's number 6, Salgado's 7 and Zizou's 9 the most but they're all great goals. Superb individual skill is visible.
I'll choose nominee 6. It's so fun to watch and beautiful goal.

[peace786]

what about Owens goal against Valencia?

[RealMadrilismo]

what about Owens goal against Valencia?

It was a ok goal, personaly i dont see Owen's goals to be special.

[Leon of Silvren]

what about Owens goal against Valencia?
I don't recall that one.....

[Lance Knight]

can barely remember any of them,lol, so i cant vote
damn

[peace786]

I don't recall that one.....

It was the one he scored by poking the ball with the outside of his foot (Romario style) into the top corner, from just inside the box, it was a great finish i must say and im suprised that its not included in this list.

[Rickster]

Lance - download the video it shows all the 10 goals 2gether

peace - i know u r a great fan of owen, but ive seen it, n it doesnt luk top corner, its hit the net more or less in the middle but very high up. it cud hav been in the top 15 but i dunt tink in the top 10

[Leon of Silvren]

can barely remember any of them,lol, so i cant vote
damn
Yes Lance, if you download the video COULD be a little bit more easy to vote.....:silly:

[Lance Knight]

i dont have high speed internet yet, next month and thing i should get it, but otherwise it would take long to download now,sorry

[Leon of Silvren]

It's like 3mb or something like that.....

[RealMadrilismo]

We still dont have a winner for the best goal. We need more votes.

[Rickster]

[RealMadrilismo]

Well I guess Zidanes goal against Sevilla will be the goal of the season. It was a good one.
