That mbappe goal is nothing....it happens everyday...just overrated
@@mshah27 says it when manchester united have made a comeback and beaten PSG 3-1 but I agree with you on the team play part
@@somethingelse7249 all teams make mistakes just leave it in the past
If the mbappe goal is overrated what is the suarez goal?
Gotham I know
That was not only about mbappe
It was about the buildup to that goal and the run of mbappe
Schöne goal vs Real ??
@@SpearofTrium05 A goal is a goal, otherwise it wouldn't have been on the scoreboars
He definitely meant to score. He is a free kick specialist and he shot a knuckleball
And Tadic vs Real
He is not a "media star" and he plays for Ajax...
Yes
Schone Free kick vs Real!?
Neymar Free kick vs Red Star!?
Firmino vs PSG!? Yeah just pick Mbappé Tap in instead.
Pavkov 2nd goal vs Liverpool was a banger as well
See, the thing is that the Mbappe tap in was an amazing TEAM effort which is. Probably why.
YEA THIS GOALS IS BETTER THAN MBAPPE'S
It was because of the counter attack
you will never understand why they put mbappes tap in on the list
So Messi gets awarded for the best goal, but comes 2nd in this list? Fair play
Cr7 deserved no. 1 , he has done uncountable goals like no.2
@@anmolsharma9445 r u high.??... ronaldo goal was fantastic but messi's was better.. look at the distance from which he scored the free kick..
@@dr.salmankhan1579 Ronaldo's goal was way harder to score
Yeah, Messi goal was awarded 1st, And in this List its 2nd 😂, Damn..
What a Strike... Messi ❤️
@@patrikbros8242 very true he took no touch
This list is a disgrace to the goals which were better than some of these goals .
Suarez ? Mbappe? Where is Schöne’s goal ? I would award that goal as the best goal of the season . Where is Di Maria’s against Napoli?
I’m a Liverpool fan
But still I would recommend that Pavkov long ranger against Liverpool.
Neymar free kick against Red star Belgrade .
Son’s second goal against Man City
Son’s goal against Dortmund
Lucas Moura second goal against Ajax
David Neres’s goal against Juventus .
Sane’s free kick against Schalke
Dembele against PSV
There are more to count ...
GRETTA EP seriously 😒
And Ronaldo chop is the number one i don't think so😓🧐🧐🧐

Arni ツ two tap-ins?
And all the other tap-ins
And Ronaldo's..
Ya and Dybala vs young boys
Bruh where is schone goal against real
that was a big goalkeeper mistake, he didn't even mean to shoot.. it was just a cross that went in cuz curtois was not careful
@@theviik1425 It still was the best goal
Daniel Cochico no
Daniel Cochico tadic versus real
@@theviik1425 it wasn't a cross. I'm a big fan of ajax and schöne scores like 7 free-kicks every season from all angles.

Messis goal was awesome
@@mikaelvendelin7113 "ronaldo's goal shouldn't be here"
Are you serious? Do you realize how hard it is to do that?
tyh I bet it’s harder than hitting top bins from 30 yards when a keeper is expecting it
tyh It’s a very good goal, but definitely not the best.
Ronaldo and Messi goal was best
I think messi's freekick against Liverpool in semi final deserves to be in 1st
I think ur mom is...
Naa I'm just messing with you. But usually the salty haters do that
Shut up.. Its CR7
@@nikolastevanovic8159 Its about best goal, not about who has the most crybaby fans
You are so correct Messi should be rewarded 1st
It shouldn't be in top 10,the ball was deflected of Gomez.
I remember watching Liverpool vs Fc Barcelona. Messi was preparing the ball. I said to my dad that I have never seen a beautiful goal live... and seconds later Messi scored that freekick

Ronaldo free kick in MU so beutiful than messi
everyone can do free kick like that but not everyone can do finishing like Ronaldo
@@Fl_Boy get your facts right juninho is the best freekick taker and ronaldo has the most freekick goals from an active player
gabrijel grgic you mean active play
@@randagen5686 nah,get your facts right,since arriving in serie a he has scored 1 free kick in 2 years ,and Messi scoring at least 3 every season
How cr7 scored that goal,1 touch and boom🔥🤣🐐
Some players can't able to see that types of ball coming 🤣
Haters and keyboard warriors are like it's a tap in 😂😂😂
Why is Ronaldo first and why isn't there Ajax's freekick against real
@Juves did you see Ajax's goal vs real Madrid and Messi's freekick
Juves dream on.Schone messi rakitic and sane were all better
@Juves hell nah
@@hanimitwally4314 don't cry here, CR7 goal was the best in terms of technical quality. That's why it's awarded number 1 , it's impossible to score that type of goals you need perfect time matching .
@@abrahams3646 Sad news for you, the first award has gone to Messi's freekick against Liverpool.
Ronaldo's goal was out of this world, that volley was the best I have ever seen!!
Lol. Then you haven't seen real volleys. Hahahaha.
still,it’s extremely difficult to pull off such finish
Ronaldo Century of First Touch.Thank you
rakitic first touch better bro
I am Messi fan but I want to say Ronaldo goal was Unbelievable That was Any player cannot do
A person who doesn’t even watch football can make a better list then this
Yea..... no😂😂😂
Yes but actually no.
For views, i think?
Yeah..no🙄Just no
Come on that was a good list
Suarez's goal doesn't deserve even a top 20 place...
All Out Attack HD I agree with it not being in top 10 but no way not being in top 20
Ronaldo’s goal as well maybe top 20 but not number 1
Bang average goal
mIST XI eli raN Mikael Vendelin mention better ones to be picked...... a goal not controlled...... one touch..... didn’t touch the ground, crossed over Ronaldo he didn’t even see how it will land but he placed it right......... Ronaldo’S GOAL was an impossible goal
Suarez goal was good and its #10. People acting like it for #1. He read the situation well and ran and hit the ball perfectly. That's a great assist from jordi alba too. He probably hit the ball with the outside of his boot while sliding too.
2:08 cringe
Look at his face he looks like he does that all by himself
It's teamwork mbappe
He just rejected his mans high five..oh look guys I'm mbappe and my legs go zoom
He's overrated
@tariel farzali but he gets more rhan he deserves. He does nothing except scoring tapins. Now people are saying he is better than mbappe, that's totally crazy, neymar is no. 3 anytime after ronaldo and messi, that's why i say he is overrated, only thing he does is he runs fast and score tapins. Jadon sancho is much better than mbappe. Skills,goals, dribbles, vision,passes, he got everything.
@@RANVEERPAGAL I disagree. The kid is a baller
@@krishna1.097 that overrated kid angers me..
Ronaldo is super..he is really amazing👍👍👍👍👏👏
You want to tell that Mbappe goal is bether than Coutinho goal??? I have no more words...
Team goal > something he does weekly lmao
@@HJUNITED That was not much of a team goal tbh those were not more than 10 passes(prob), and if that goal was scored by a regular player say from porto, it would have never made the list
Suarez's goal was more slicky then Mbappe's
Fantastic

Messi's goal was rated the best goal of the season
An accurate long pass and a brilliantly controlled volley

@@HashimyHuseini Croatia hada fire team dumbass
I can surely say that Ronaldo's goal is the best in the list. For many of those who don't agree you probably can't imagine how difficult it is to kick the ball at such high speed that is coming behind you straightly in a top corner of the goals, even when you are followed by a defender. In other words, that is phenomenal. I would also love to mention the great pass from Bonucci
As expected CR7 showed his class of scoring marvellous goals..😀
Monira Begum should’ve been #2 tbh
@@duckonquac1719 CR7 's goal is very much justified at # 1 bcoz that goal was sensational...😎

Ronaldo won for the second time in a row after the bicycle goal against Juve. Both goals were scored in 2018 and at Juventus Stadium, one against Juve and the other for them. In both Juve lost the match.
