this is without a doubt the biggest scandinavian footballer of all time, Michael Laudrup was great but Nordahl is insane, he's goalscoring record places him among the top 5 european strikers of all time in my book. Love from Norway
Those goals were horrible and to simplistic. And the camera were no were near the ball movement. The game was just to slow for my taste. Good picture in all cases but nothing I would watch again. But still he was player well appreciated by milanistas.
This guy must of been an animal. What an incredible strike rate he had, and to mention football was harder in those days as well. AC Milan have had some superstar players in their history!
@seanreillyireland Yes?? ;-D I was going to send you this vid & then I saw that you had already posted here, mate. Someone the other day told me that Nordahl was "just a goal-hanger": I nearly fell off my stool laughing.
Well, to be honest I have absolutely no idea of whether he was a good player or not, but statistics rarely lie. So, judged on his statistics, I would actually call him one of the best football players ever, if not the best.
Why isnt he as famous as Maradona and Pele? he had 33 matches for the Swe national team ( not the best national team in the world/ I am swe so I like swe ofc).. anyway on 33 matches he scored 43 goals.. for a swe team he had 95 matches, 93 goals.. :P sick
Because although he was one of the best strikers ever, he didn't revolutionize the game like Maradona, Pele, Di Stefano, Cruyff and Beckenbauer...they were all time greats who were leaders of their teams, players who made the difference, lead their teams to great trophies and were by far ahead of their time. Although, I am a Milanista myself, and I sure as hell would like for Milan to have a striker like that again :). Silvio Piola has 49 goals more than him in serie A, and 250 games more xD.
@Thunderer7 thats not the point: the fact is on fame scales Pele, Bobby Charlton etc are THOUSANDS of times more famous than men like Nordahl, Peter Doherty, Ivor Allchurch... that isn't right.
@alexan1107 Sweden is like Netherlands and Portugal. All three countries would have easily had a world cup to their name if they didn't suffer from small populations. Sure population doesn't mean everything, but it does mean a whole lot when your country is a very small fraction of the rest of the competition.
One of the greatest videos I've ever seen on youtube. Definitely the best footage I've ever seen on Gunnar Nordahl, great clear footage of a true legend. Forza Milan! Thanks for posting this.

@MrShellschock But Laudrup was a midfielder and he would usually pass the ball so that someone else could score.

@MrShellschock Michael Laudrup is number one with Gunnar Nordahl good second IMO. This is coming from a swede. Can't deny Laudrups genius.

@delkhairio
i believe that is Nils Liedholm.
He was also Swedish and formed the famous attacking trio for Milan known as "Gre-No-Li" along with Gunnar Nordalh and Gunnar Gren.
