This proved lots of his incredible goals in the past were not flukes. This is not just straight direction to the goal but what to say 'side-ball hit' or what to call. I don't know. No matter it's friendly or competitive match, defenders had no chance.
@9brilliant Exactly ! I played footbal at high level but not pro, and what Marco does is unbelievable. And he does it over and over again, it's a gift. At high level the ball comes so fast and it's so difficult to make these goals. Maybe he sees the ball in slow motion and knows exactly where to hit it to be a goal. BUT to him this comes natural, we have to think about it !! Thats the difference.
What a great goal. That guy is amazing. At over 40 and he's still doing great goals. He has great skill and athleticism. To bad he retired so early, he could have accomplished so much more if his career wouldnt have been cut so short. He will always be missed.
great player! Its a shame injuries forced him to retire very early on in his career. Im sure he would have been one of the best strikers ever! Although he arguebly still is! Unfortunately, the reality is (just my opinion) that he was overshadowed by other great strikers like, Bergkamp, and the likes of Batistuta, just my opinion.
Please check out larsson header dundee utd and also larsson header sweden v bulgaria henrick larsson's favourite player was coincidently marco van basten wonder if this goal influenced his style of attack
Van Basten was a top 5 all time player & the most talented & complete centre forward in history.
I notice some moron says Ronaldo is better, hahahahahaha, thats a good one.
If they were both boxers, Ronaldo wouldnt be fit enough to be Van Bastens sparring partner, Marco can do everything better than R9, who is a great player no doubt but tremendously overrated.
Its an insult to MVB to mention Ronaldo`s name in the same sentence as this wonderfull player.
Though Ronaldo could score with his head, he was nowhere near as good as Van Basten at heading, nor at volleying/taking free kicks/chipping goalkeepers,etc. Ronaldo was worldclass at 3 or 4 abilities. Van Basten was worldclass at all abilities an attacker could require.
I am 22 and I couldnt watch this players very much...actually I was not aware of football very much. shame on me! now its my everything and its so sad that I cant watch this players anymore...Batistuta, Van Basten,Cruyff, Klinsman,Roberto Baggio,Baresi,Maradona,Zidane and much more list goes on!
look up the 'bergkamp testimonial'... in half time cruiff and van basten come in to the field. that was in 2007 i think, so cruiff was allready pretty old :P But van basten shows his class again twice somewhere in the end of the video
Class in a glass even at 40!!

ronaldo was a pure striker you cant deny his greatness.
he literally had every physical attribute necessary. HIs combination of strength and speed is something that we havent seen since.
he could score with anything, his legs head, both feet, inside outside.
