I was 18 when I watched this match live. People often comments about how great Messi and Cristiano are but they should see this man before the injuries struck. He did not get enough protection from referees. Not only in this game but in the previous round of that world cup against Denmark he suffered some ugly tackle.One from Brian Laudrup I still remember. After 98 WC till 02 WC he played only 52 club games because of the injury yet came back and had his redemption.If the injuries did not affected him he would be named the greatest off all without any doubt. For me he is still though is the one and only. Football is never same after he retired.
well said. messi is great but r9...what a bull. messi 90% of the time receives the ball around 1/4 into opponents half and dribbles. ronaldo picked it up from half way line and just ran directly towards goal. it was madness and the scary thing was the dribbles were so successful. he changed in the later part of his career to be more striker focused but so crazy to see him in this way.
If Ronaldo was playing these days, the whole opponent team will be getting red cards and he would have scored double goals. Today, players are more protected by referees
If he had no injury he would have exceeded Messi. Its a shame he had that seizure. All due respect for France and Zidane, but France did not win WC98, rather Ronaldo lost it.
@@NihilSineDeo09 fixed final. Everyone knew this. Ronaldo faked his sickness, Romário missed the world cup. Brazil had 4 world cups and France had 0 world cups. France was hostess.

One of his best matches And acceleration is second to none The turns the twists the hard tackles from opposing defenders and the will to carry on This is true Fenomeno.
After that loss in 98, I’m so damn glad he was part of that winning team in 2002.... I still don’t think he gets enough credits nowadays but at least former players acknowledge how truly great he was... he was just ridiculous ....

This was the last game I saw Ronaldo that fast. It was unbelievable. He was playing at a different speed. No way to stop, you had to have a second line of defense and football was way more physical.

Yo también ví ese partido en vivo tenía 10 años y asta el día de hoy recuerdo esa corrida de ronaldo frente frank de bóer y stam es lo mejor que e visto en un mundial fue impresionante cuando ISO esa jugada personal todos pensábamos que terminaría el gol
Yo no lo llegué a verlo en vivo dado que era muy chikillo, pero ahora viendo esto uno puede imaginar la Potencia, fuerza, agilidad, habilidad, que tenía este jugador, pfff.. Impresionante era un verdadero toro pura fuerza y velocidad, nunca se ha visto un 9 así.. Pero que rico partido se metieron por lo que veo.. Que rica defensa también esa la de holanda ahh.. A punta de patada y técnica hicieron lo posible de frenar a un monstruo como RONALDO EL FENÓMENO que estaba en su apogeo, hay que reconocer que esos holandeses también matizaron un gran partido.
Ronaldo. o jogador mais espetacular dos últimos tempos. Neste jogo ele tinha 22 anos. E ja era: Melhor do mundo por 2 vezes. em dois clubes diferentes. Campeão da copa de 94. Jogado como estrela no Brasileiro, na Holanda, na Espanha e Itália. e ja tinha uma cirurgia no joelho. o diferencial dele é que ele poderia tentar e errar 10 vezes. mas ele tentaria de novo. ate conseguir. Vontade. Determinação. Coragem. Persistência. Um verdadeiro campeão. Deveria ser mais respeitado no BRASIL.
In todays game know how many red cards that would have been? Holland would have had to forfeit the gams. I dont want to hear anymore about Messi and CR7 compared to this phenomenon period
7:30 The accelaration it's insane!. this deutschland Team kicking Ronaldo all the time! So vicious, specially Edgar Davis, and the referee? poker face, what a lack of authority. Thanks for this Video! and the memories.
At this game he was 20 years old, the kid already had been taking some harsh punishment from Brazil, the Netherlands, I think he took a break from Spain but the Italians were just too much. There’s was no other way to stop him, he’s was just amazing
La verdad siempre tengo tristeza, cuando ya no veo jugar al Fenomeno, para mi el futbol se acabo, y no ver la genialidad, la calidad, siempre me pongo triste.😥😥😥
Sin duda el mejor jugador que han visto mis ojos afortunado de verlo debutar y ver su retiro soy colombiano pero como dijo un dia un comentarista de futbol ver a ronaldo enfrentarse contra colombia daba mucho miedo siempre pense que no era humano era indescrictible un afiche de ronaldo daba mas miedo que verlo en la titular era imparable es el mejor de todos
Ronaldo is the real GOAT !!! He was an awesome player. Speed, potency, skills, definition.....all together in just 1 person. Not Cristiano or Messi can compare to him.
Ronaldo foi o mais perto que um jogador conseguiu chegar perto do Pele, era uma maquina de jogar futebol, e nessa epoca só tinha 20 anos, jogava muito como um veterano, e não fazia distinção entre clube e a seleção, jogava da mesma forma em ambos os ambientes...
O Fenômeno, hoje dono do meu Cruzeiro, foi o melhor jogador da história do futebol no seu auge, ninguém nunca chegou perto, nem Pelé, nem nenhum outro. A explosão, velocidade, chute, enfim... Incomparável
This was a great match.. I'm a big Netherlands fan till I die.. Watching this back then made me really hard to catch my breath.. Both team played very well and at their best.. Patrick Kluivert scored the beautiful header and made this 1-1.. So grateful could watch a legendary match like this..
My all time favourite football game, 7:27 insane speed from Ronaldo during the second half of extra time after almost 2 hours on the pitch, just amazing...
The Dutch did not come to play. They came to destroy Ronaldo' s career. Through it all, he survived. What a phenomenal player of all time. Messi and Cristiano are like eaglets who can't fly yet when it comes to El Fenomino. He is the ultimate soccer player of all time.
@@dg.siilva_ I respect all those players but Diego is right up there with Pele and some may even say he surpassed Pele. So, I don't think that is a fair comment because Diego is not from Brazil...
1998, auge físico, potência na arrancada e muita consciência tática. Se posicionava muito a frente, as 2 pernas bem calibradas, apesar de não ter um jogo aéreo muito forte era imparável seus dribles secos e em progressão. Suas lesões foram a forma que Deus corrigir o monstro que tinha feito! 🤴🏿
Olha o posicionamento dele. Gostava de receber a bola nas pontas enquanto deixava o Bebeto mais centralizado. Não era um centroavante, mas um atacante. Assim jogava na Itália também. Já na copa de 2002 e 2006, ele ficava mais plantado. O Ronaldo de 2002 e de 2006 é completamente diferente do Ronaldo de 98.
@@empessoa3280 noa é mano.... Ele era centroavante... Centroavante e que quebra a linha defensiva... Não precisa ser centralizado... Pivô é mais fixo . Depois das lesões ganhou muito peso e ai fico mais pivô. Olha o gol dele contra a Holanda.. Ele fez o papel certinho de centroavante. Ele não quebrou a linha mas atingiu as costas do defensor centralizado porque Bebeto estava puxando marcação justo do outro zagueiro... Os cara tem uma leitura jogo muito forte . Como Carlos subia muito e rivaldo foi pra esquerda Bebeto puxo a marcação e ronaldo pegou as costas
@@osentininella Sim. Ele revezava com o Bebeto. Ora ele saia mais pra buscar o jogo, ora ele ficava no meio e deixava o Bebeto se movimentar. O Bebeto e o Romário faziam a mesma coisa em 94 (o Romário ficava mais plantado).
Este fue el mejor partido de francia 98. Lo llamaron la final adelantada. Dos equipazos. Ese holanda era poderosisima mucho mas poderosa que la holanda del 2010.
His style of football is more of a one two pass and fast attacking game.. he is able to beat any player by his samba skills.. he is just agile,quick, great balance, aggressive and strong. He does not relatiate rough tackles which is very impressive. He scores goals and also sometimes create them. He can give slip throughs and also feint like a Samba King.
Me recuerdo de este gran partido en el mundial del 98 en este juego Ronaldo recibía el balón y encaraba e visto pocos jugadores tan protagonista de un partido en un mundial ésa corrida desde mitad de campo frente a Frank de boer y stam fue épica el fenómeno recibía el balón y el solo encaraba a los jugadores holandeses ni a Messi ni a Cristiano le e visto hacer eso en un mundial
What a strength it is just something from a different world in every challenge he puts in so much strength so much power keeping a sharp touch on the ball at such a speed, I can't believe my eyes this was 22 years ago and I still get goosebumps watching this, I'm speechless, this was one of the greatest individual performances in FWC history.
Los hermanos De Boer, Denis Bergkamp, Patrick Kluivert, Cocu y todas las estrellas holandesas, pero no; en este partido solo fue Ronaldo, Ronaldo y Ronaldo.
Esa Holanda tenia un equipazo, te falto Sedoorf, Davis, Van de Sar, Jonk, Winter, y aun Asi Ronaldo Nazario de Lima los basureaba a todos, la verda que Ronaldo era un jugador impresionante, ni Pele le iguala.
Elmo Vicente Ramos Stam te faltó. De los mortales, R9 ha sido lo más letal. Capítulo aparte Pelé, él era algo demasiado genial (sugerencia: para analizarle dejar de solamente enfocarse en sus regates y admirar su ingenio y por sobre todo, juego de un toque, es lo más genial.)
One of the most legendary and underrated performances in WC history. He was torching the likes of Jaap Stam, Frank De Boer, Philip Cocu and Edgar Davids all by himself sometimes. And Brazil was not a great side in 1998. They begged Dunga to come back and he was 35 partnered with Cesar Sampaio, both of whom were playing in the Japanese League, let that sink in. The only other great attacking talent they had was Rivaldo. And Brazil heaped all that pressure on a 21 year old Ronaldo and he almost delivered all by himself. And he did it in an era where football was defensive and the stars did not get much protection. Glad that he got his redemption in 2002. They should have taken Romario just to ease some of the burden from Ronaldo. But Ronaldo's lasting legacy is that he was the mega superstar of the globalisation football age and how he changed the way that the striker position will be played forever. El Phenomenon indeed.
el jugador mas rapido de todos los tiempos ...no me vengan con mamadas de que henry era mas rapido ...osea si era rapido pero nada que ver con el gran fenomeno
We can see why this guys its call "EL FENOMENO " as the game is passing by the stronger Ronaldo was playing, remember that they were playing over time here and it was the semifinals, amazing player , to me he's the best player in the history of soccer Ronaldo el fenomeno.....
No me canso de ver la corrida de Ronaldo contra de boer y stam. Impresionante,encima fue en segundo tiempo del alargue,lástima que hizo una de más en esa jugada pero que bestia era el fenómeno. Por lejos el mejor futbolista que vi en mi vida...
Ese movimiento del pie de Roni en el minuto 7:45 por Dios muestrenme otro igual de cualquier jugador de la historia a esa velocidad que lo hacía el fenómeno es decir a mil por hora y hace esa elástica no se ni que es pero cualquier terrestre lo va hacer y se rompe en pedazos el tobillo.
@Maicol Contreras si señor así es, lo he visto también, para mí ese señor fue el mejor fue una pesadilla lo de sus rodillas, porque si no quien sabe que más hubiese hecho
X favor se le pide solo una vez a MESSI que haga lo mismo en seleccion, en un Mundial y contra un grande. Busque en youtube y no existe video👎y dicen q es el mejor de la historia😂
mesi solo sirve para liga española,toda su vida jugo ahi y tambien solo sirve para el barza que tiene un estilo de juego desde hace años.si frionel juega este partido contra este holanda,solo dos patada de davids y lo desaparece,asi son las cosas.el Fenomeno con las entradas que le metian seguia jugando.
GD WARRIOR DELE EL EQUIPO DE ARGENTINA 2019 A RONALDO Y VIERAS KA GRAN DIFERENCIA...... SOLO SU PRESENCIA EN LA CANCHA HACE TODO Y MESSI NO TIENE LA MISMS CALIDAD QUE RONALDO FENOMENO
@Durden tambien dijo de zidane, de romario y de muchos mas, ea la humildad que siempre le a caracterizado. claro esta que en carrera messi y cristiano lo han superado. pero alguna vez a visto en tiempos modernos la expectativa, la euforia, las ganas de ver un jugador como ronaldo, en un mundial, nunca. ni cristiano y messi juntos. solo en ese partido le pegaron mas patadas de hombre que a messi, cristiano y neymar juntos en un mundial. solo un verdadero crack tiene huevos, coraje, personalidad, para dejar la comodidad de la liga descompensada y mierda como es la española e ir a jugar a italia, la liga mas pareja, dura y complicada para un jugador habilidoso y tecnico como ronaldo, donde las faltitas de hoy eran caricias en aquella epoca
Melih Er 7:55 was just a perfect tackle, no way is that a pen let alone a red and 5:20 wasn’t bad either. Ronaldo is my hero but neither of those are bad tackles.
TheHappyManatee I'm sorry but 7:55 is a red card and a penalty. The fact the defender strikes the ball has nothing to do with it. Ronaldo had his legs taken out and was fortunate to escape serious injury, just like he was at 2:28, which was arguably even more cynical from the Dutch. Both are reckless and dangerous challenges, even by 1998 standards. FIFA published a rule amendment just before the '98 World Cup aimed precisely at cracking down on "tackles from behind which endanger the safety of an opponent". This referee obviously didn't get the message. www.fifa.com/about-fifa/who-we-are/news/fifa-crack-down-tackle-from-behind-70380
Quien puede dudar que el mejor jugador de la historia estaba mal viendo este partido donde volaba y la final fue una sombra debido a los problemas que tuvo..sino abria sido campeon del mundo tambien ahi
THIS IS WHY RONALDO IS THE BEST. BACK THEN REFEREES DIDN'T REALLY HELP THAT MUCH, THE DEFENDERS WILL TACKLE YOU FOR REAL AND HAVE U MENTALLY SCARED LIKE EDGAR DAVIS & STAM BUT RONALDO DOESN'T SHY AWAY FROM PHYSICAL CONTACT. FACTS💯🖤❤ #BlessingsToBrazilRonaldo
Holy shit. His speed are so amazing. The dutch have no clue to counter him except pin him down all the time. What a shame to see this at WC level. We all can agree we kinda missed to see this level of player nowadays. Period
Messi and CR7 have *nothing* on this guy. He was phenomenal. And he won the World Cup. Twice (was part of the 94 squad, though I don't think he played). The mistake people make about France 98 is the assumption that Zidane was a star. He was a virtual unknown before the World Cup and only became a star *after* winning the tournament, scoring twice in the final. Ronaldo, on the other hand, was already a well known superstar *BEFORE* said tournament thanks to his exploits at Inter Milan. And proof of his superstardom, Nike did an advert for that year's tournament featuring the Brazillian team playing footie in an airport.
@@laflame0284 Ronaldo won two world cups when he was under 25 and in addition to being the idol of several players, Messi and CR7 are nothing in front of Ronaldo.
When you talk about head and shoulders above the rest, looking at R9 play is like 1 v 11 at times. He was such a force that he took on 4-7 players by himself not even considering a pass option. Sublime skills and supreme confidence knowing he can just terrorize whomever he wants. The GOAT despite any stats or titles or numbers and BS just pure talent, eye test, impact, role, time period, opponents, rules of game....
We can not measure how strong he could reach if he didn't get serious knee injuries. ❤💗❤ Ronaldo Nazario is the greatest football player in my heart. If he didn't get serious knee injuries and become overweight (free from training) , he would improve to be the strongest one and could play far better than what he did that we have seen. From 2002 he did't improve or develop his talents anymore and became slower and slower and couldn't perform vigorously because afraid of his chronic injuries relapse. He is the real king of striker 😍
He was not supposed to be the only target man in the team, he had Bebeto alongside him; Rivaldo at 2002. He had Zamorano at Inter, too; where, in his only full season he only trailed lonely-target man and legend Bierhoff as serie A top scorer. And, getting back to Brazil, that he even thus achieved to be at one point the historical World Cup scorer, two World Cups champion, speaks volumes of his legend. While nowadays you’re supposed to play a lonely forward, therefore getting comparatively more chances, and having other attackers focused on assisting you. There is a case of him being the GOAT, (though Pele for me). Oh! And don’t forget he was a legendary big game player, R9.
Aggressive man marking defense of Dutch, Brazil got many spaces due to man marking system applied by Dutch. But what a show from Ronaldo 9, and insane defending from Dutch.
Gambeteaba hasta los porteros el amo del joga bonito Demasiado poder y talento para dos simples rodillas humanas the best striker ever Ronaldo R9 🇧🇷🔥 from 🇲🇽whit love,👍🏼
Imho the greatest player to ever step on the pitch got fouled throughout the whole match. The ref was very forgiving towards the dutch side, if he would of called the match fair the dutch would of had more than one or two players being sent off on yellows to red. The mauled the shit out of Ronaldo and the ref kept telling them to cool it time after time again. Fucking slap-dick. #fenomenoGOAT
LOS GRANDES 9 RECONOCEN, A RONALDO NAZARIO DA LIMA, COMO EL MEJOR DE TODOS. COMPLETO, EL FENOMENO NO FUE UN PAYASO Q SE TIRABA. RECIBIA LAS FALTAS MAS DURAS. Y NO LO AMILANABAN, GRANDE RONNI. JAMAS VOLVEREMOS A VER ALGUIEN COMO EL. UN EXTRATERRESTRE.
Eu acho ele o maior de todos que vi. Desde de quando ele subiu para o profissional no Cruzeiro. Ele era uma máquina de jogar futebol. Tenho saudades de vê-lo em campo, um arranque impressionante, aliado a técnica e seu poder de finalizador. Ele foi fora de série. Messi e Cr7 jogaram muito, mas o R9 ERA CRUEL.
That was a fucking world cup match not like 2018 , this match is one of the best matches of WC 1998 not to say the best, the intensity was terrible and what to say about ronaldo defenders nightmare... legendary match

Jogado como estrela no Brasileiro, na Holanda, na Espanha e Itália. e ja tinha uma cirurgia no joelho.
o diferencial dele é que ele poderia tentar e errar 10 vezes. mas ele tentaria de novo. ate conseguir.
Vontade. Determinação. Coragem. Persistência.
Um verdadeiro campeão.
Deveria ser mais respeitado no BRASIL.
Inigualável.
O verdadeiro Ronaldo!!!
Todavia no, Ronaldo tenia 21anos. El nacio el 18/09/1976.
In todays game know how many red cards that would have been? Holland would have had to forfeit the gams. I dont want to hear anymore about Messi and CR7 compared to this phenomenon period
I Saw this Game live, but I didnt remember how much they pummelled him and he still kept going.
He was so FAST!!!!!
Ronaldo at his peak before the injuries; simply unstoppable. Pity he didn’t win 1998 cup.
2 world’s best players facing each other in the final... Zidane vs R9
ronaldo had heart attack before the match and they poisoned him...ronaldo wasn't himself that night
@@razor19906😂😂😂
7:30 The accelaration it's insane!. this deutschland Team kicking Ronaldo all the time! So vicious, specially Edgar Davis, and the referee? poker face, what a lack of authority. Thanks for this Video! and the memories.

Bloody hell how fast is he
Uma máquina

@@user-co1gi7yd2r not today.... hardly see a straight 1minute football without any whistle paused
The ref failed to protect ronaldo... During is time.. Sad.. If it was today he will be well protected.
At this game he was 20 years old, the kid already had been taking some harsh punishment from Brazil, the Netherlands, I think he took a break from Spain but the Italians were just too much. There’s was no other way to stop him, he’s was just amazing
La verdad siempre tengo tristeza, cuando ya no veo jugar al Fenomeno, para mi el futbol se acabo, y no ver la genialidad, la calidad, siempre me pongo triste.😥😥😥
Sin duda el mejor jugador que han visto mis ojos afortunado de verlo debutar y ver su retiro soy colombiano pero como dijo un dia un comentarista de futbol ver a ronaldo enfrentarse contra colombia daba mucho miedo siempre pense que no era humano era indescrictible un afiche de ronaldo daba mas miedo que verlo en la titular era imparable es el mejor de todos
Ronaldo is the real GOAT !!! He was an awesome player. Speed, potency, skills, definition.....all together in just 1 person. Not Cristiano or Messi can compare to him.
The unique, The genius, The Miracle Man !
Ronaldo foi o mais perto que um jogador conseguiu chegar perto do Pele, era uma maquina de jogar futebol, e nessa epoca só tinha 20 anos, jogava muito como um veterano, e não fazia distinção entre clube e a seleção, jogava da mesma forma em ambos os ambientes...
O Fenômeno, hoje dono do meu Cruzeiro, foi o melhor jogador da história do futebol no seu auge, ninguém nunca chegou perto, nem Pelé, nem nenhum outro.
A explosão, velocidade, chute, enfim... Incomparável
Esse jogo era pra ser expulso uns 6 no mínimo...
Ia fazer um golaço de bicicleta
Thanks to modern rules, Messi and CR7 play againts easier defender nowadays
@7:28 would have been one of the greatest goals of the world cups, that sprint and technique, credit to that last Dutch defender, de Boer, as well!
Wasn't it a foul?
Este es el mejor jugador q mis ojos hayan visto.
igual no hay otros estos payasos no me diviertten ps
Comparto. Y enfrente estaba otro que fue mi debilidad. Denis Bergkamp
Great overall performance by Ronaldo in this game... amazing player... thanks for the upload.
This was a great match.. I'm a big Netherlands fan till I die.. Watching this back then made me really hard to catch my breath.. Both team played very well and at their best.. Patrick Kluivert scored the beautiful header and made this 1-1.. So grateful could watch a legendary match like this..
The Commentator said it: "Looking for the GREAT RONALDO. "
That sprint at 7:28 was pure brutality
My all time favourite football game, 7:27 insane speed from Ronaldo during the second half of extra time after almost 2 hours on the pitch, just amazing...
The referee was very bad, he didn´t show yellow and red cards to violents netherlands players.
yep .. at least 5 yellow cards
And also 2 penalties..
this referee should go to jail.
Actually this was the real final of 1998 WC
The Dutch did not come to play. They came to destroy Ronaldo' s career. Through it all, he survived. What a phenomenal player of all time. Messi and Cristiano are like eaglets who can't fly yet when it comes to El Fenomino. He is the ultimate soccer player of all time.
Stay of the mushrooms son.

1998, auge físico, potência na arrancada e muita consciência tática.
Se posicionava muito a frente, as 2 pernas bem calibradas, apesar de não ter um jogo aéreo muito forte era imparável seus dribles secos e em progressão. Suas lesões foram a forma que Deus corrigir o monstro que tinha feito!
🤴🏿
Como os caras quebro ele hein
Olha o posicionamento dele. Gostava de receber a bola nas pontas enquanto deixava o Bebeto mais centralizado. Não era um centroavante, mas um atacante. Assim jogava na Itália também. Já na copa de 2002 e 2006, ele ficava mais plantado. O Ronaldo de 2002 e de 2006 é completamente diferente do Ronaldo de 98.
@@empessoa3280 noa é mano....
Ele era centroavante...
Centroavante e que quebra a linha defensiva...
Não precisa ser centralizado...
Pivô é mais fixo .
Depois das lesões ganhou muito peso e ai fico mais pivô.
Olha o gol dele contra a Holanda..
Ele fez o papel certinho de centroavante.
Ele não quebrou a linha mas atingiu as costas do defensor centralizado porque Bebeto estava puxando marcação justo do outro zagueiro...
Os cara tem uma leitura jogo muito forte .
Como Carlos subia muito e rivaldo foi pra esquerda Bebeto puxo a marcação e ronaldo pegou as costas
@@osentininella Sim. Ele revezava com o Bebeto. Ora ele saia mais pra buscar o jogo, ora ele ficava no meio e deixava o Bebeto se movimentar.
O Bebeto e o Romário faziam a mesma coisa em 94 (o Romário ficava mais plantado).
@@empessoa3280 sim

Real goat.
Ronaldo better than Ronaldo of Portugal and messi..
There is no comparison! Ronald and mess I are all very great player is a phenom! Glad to watch him play in my life time
Ronaldo is only phenomenon nobody else ok no messi no cr7
Why did you have to say the thing every body knowed ?
@paseey Completely wrong.
@@chazanclaudiogoldman3792 Agree!, This boy knows nothing of soccer, probably has never even played, another ronaldina messi fan.....
He really enjoyed his speed !
Este fue el mejor partido de francia 98. Lo llamaron la final adelantada. Dos equipazos. Ese holanda era poderosisima mucho mas poderosa que la holanda del 2010.
Asi es pero sin ronaldo brazil no le ganaba a esa holanda asi de grande era el fenomeno
His style of football is more of a one two pass and fast attacking game.. he is able to beat any player by his samba skills.. he is just agile,quick, great balance, aggressive and strong. He does not relatiate rough tackles which is very impressive. He scores goals and also sometimes create them. He can give slip throughs and also feint like a Samba King.
The amount of tackles that R9 was subjected to during this time 🤯. And he kept moving, no rolling over covering the earth’s circumference
Me recuerdo de este gran partido en el mundial del 98 en este juego Ronaldo recibía el balón y encaraba e visto pocos jugadores tan protagonista de un partido en un mundial ésa corrida desde mitad de campo frente a Frank de boer y stam fue épica el fenómeno recibía el balón y el solo encaraba a los jugadores holandeses ni a Messi ni a Cristiano le e visto hacer eso en un mundial
Yo pienso lo mismo que tu amigo y el solo contra defensas de primer nivel y que extraordinaria velocidad que tenia
What a strength it is just something from a different world in every challenge he puts in so much strength so much power keeping a sharp touch on the ball at such a speed, I can't believe my eyes this was 22 years ago and I still get goosebumps watching this, I'm speechless, this was one of the greatest individual performances in FWC history.
Best player in the world for ever
7:28 that de boer tackle was insane, that would have been one of the greatest goals ever had he not made that challenge.
0:46 that block from Stamp was just amazing to watch !
El mejor centro delantero de la historia.
all those crazy tackle in one match, hardly got any cards, and this man wishstood it like a legend
Los hermanos De Boer, Denis Bergkamp, Patrick Kluivert, Cocu y todas las estrellas holandesas, pero no; en este partido solo fue Ronaldo, Ronaldo y Ronaldo.
exactamente,, una cerveza hermano porque sabe de buen futbol
Este partido es de lo mejor qué e visto en un solo jugador como protagonista el fenómeno Ronaldo
Esa Holanda tenia un equipazo, te falto Sedoorf, Davis, Van de Sar, Jonk, Winter, y aun Asi Ronaldo Nazario de Lima los basureaba a todos, la verda que Ronaldo era un jugador impresionante, ni Pele le iguala.
Me imagino lo que fuera de Messi con estos equipos. Cuando ni a la defensa de chile pudo pasar??
Elmo Vicente Ramos Stam te faltó. De los mortales, R9 ha sido lo más letal. Capítulo aparte Pelé, él era algo demasiado genial (sugerencia: para analizarle dejar de solamente enfocarse en sus regates y admirar su ingenio y por sobre todo, juego de un toque, es lo más genial.)
my hero/idol thank you for effort! 💗👍
ronaldogotmagic thank you
One of the most legendary and underrated performances in WC history. He was torching the likes of Jaap Stam, Frank De Boer, Philip Cocu and Edgar Davids all by himself sometimes. And Brazil was not a great side in 1998. They begged Dunga to come back and he was 35 partnered with Cesar Sampaio, both of whom were playing in the Japanese League, let that sink in. The only other great attacking talent they had was Rivaldo. And Brazil heaped all that pressure on a 21 year old Ronaldo and he almost delivered all by himself. And he did it in an era where football was defensive and the stars did not get much protection. Glad that he got his redemption in 2002. They should have taken Romario just to ease some of the burden from Ronaldo.
But Ronaldo's lasting legacy is that he was the mega superstar of the globalisation football age and how he changed the way that the striker position will be played forever. El Phenomenon indeed.
Well said!!
man, doesn't matter how he was being played dirty, he just keeps running forward and scoring.
el jugador mas rapido de todos los tiempos ...no me vengan con mamadas de que henry era mas rapido ...osea si era rapido pero nada que ver con el gran fenomeno
IGGY IGGY concordo con e sen la pelota
Yo pienso lo mismo que tu
Every time he has the ball, the defenders will have a nightmare. 😂
This is my ever forward...never seen like Ronaldo de Lima.
O cara não gesticula reclamando falta, reclamando cartão, ou pênalti. Joga o jogo. É um Muhamad Ali do futebol. Ronaldo eterno.
We can see why this guys its call "EL FENOMENO " as the game is passing by the stronger Ronaldo was playing, remember that they were playing over time here and it was the semifinals, amazing player , to me he's the best player in the history of soccer Ronaldo el fenomeno.....
Melhor número 9 que já vi jogar. De 1993 à 2010.
Melhor atacante independente de ser 9,6,11 ,23,78.
The raw POWER of Ronaldo takes your breath away every time he gets the ball
This guy was invincible 😱
Netherlands defenders were so goof
Actually they where some of the best defenders of all time like Jaap Stam
I love messi. But him and ronaldo are so protected. If ronaldo played now. Teams will have 5 red cards.
Watch this game live and it was pure football.
Ronaldo’s speeds n dribble vs Netherlands is crazy. What they did to him dirty and vicious brutal aggressive towards him.
Before this match Jaap Stam and the Netherlands defense guaranteed they'll keep Ronaldo scoreless. Was so happy when he scored!
They had a great defense, possibly the best alongside Italy. Amazing feat by Ronaldo to score and put them in danger many times.
No me canso de ver la corrida de Ronaldo contra de boer y stam. Impresionante,encima fue en segundo tiempo del alargue,lástima que hizo una de más en esa jugada pero que bestia era el fenómeno. Por lejos el mejor futbolista que vi en mi vida...
De hecho esa jugada es penal si la analizas buen, tremendo jugador fenomeno.
Yo pienso lo mismo que tu amigo pero que extraordinaria velocidad que tenia
Ese movimiento del pie de Roni en el minuto 7:45 por Dios muestrenme otro igual de cualquier jugador de la historia a esa velocidad que lo hacía el fenómeno es decir a mil por hora y hace esa elástica no se ni que es pero cualquier terrestre lo va hacer y se rompe en pedazos el tobillo.
@Maicol Contreras si señor así es, lo he visto también, para mí ese señor fue el mejor fue una pesadilla lo de sus rodillas, porque si no quien sabe que más hubiese hecho
@Maicol Contreras para mi es el mejor que he visto sin duda!
X favor se le pide solo una vez a MESSI que haga lo mismo en seleccion, en un Mundial y contra un grande. Busque en youtube y no existe video👎y dicen q es el mejor de la historia😂
mesi solo sirve para liga española,toda su vida jugo ahi y tambien solo sirve para el barza que tiene un estilo de juego desde hace años.si frionel juega este partido contra este holanda,solo dos patada de davids y lo desaparece,asi son las cosas.el Fenomeno con las entradas que le metian seguia jugando.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 ja ja pides imposibles
GD WARRIOR
DELE EL EQUIPO DE ARGENTINA 2019 A RONALDO Y VIERAS KA GRAN DIFERENCIA......
SOLO SU PRESENCIA EN LA CANCHA HACE TODO Y MESSI NO TIENE LA MISMS CALIDAD QUE RONALDO FENOMENO
@GD WARRIOR calla pendejo, si MARADONA HA DICHO QUE RONALDO ES EL JUGADOR CON MAS TALENTO DEL FUTBOL.
@Durden tambien dijo de zidane, de romario y de muchos mas, ea la humildad que siempre le a caracterizado. claro esta que en carrera messi y cristiano lo han superado. pero alguna vez a visto en tiempos modernos la expectativa, la euforia, las ganas de ver un jugador como ronaldo, en un mundial, nunca. ni cristiano y messi juntos. solo en ese partido le pegaron mas patadas de hombre que a messi, cristiano y neymar juntos en un mundial. solo un verdadero crack tiene huevos, coraje, personalidad, para dejar la comodidad de la liga descompensada y mierda como es la española e ir a jugar a italia, la liga mas pareja, dura y complicada para un jugador habilidoso y tecnico como ronaldo, donde las faltitas de hoy eran caricias en aquella epoca
This r9 [before injuries] is better than messi or cr7, we dont see these kind of tackles nowadays.
2:30 red card, 5:20 red card + penalty, 7:55 red card + penalty, and let's not talk about all the yellow cards that should be given.
Exactly!!!
Melih Er 7:55 was just a perfect tackle, no way is that a pen let alone a red and 5:20 wasn’t bad either. Ronaldo is my hero but neither of those are bad tackles.
Red Card and Jail!!
TheHappyManatee I'm sorry but 7:55 is a red card and a penalty. The fact the defender strikes the ball has nothing to do with it. Ronaldo had his legs taken out and was fortunate to escape serious injury, just like he was at 2:28, which was arguably even more cynical from the Dutch. Both are reckless and dangerous challenges, even by 1998 standards. FIFA published a rule amendment just before the '98 World Cup aimed precisely at cracking down on "tackles from behind which endanger the safety of an opponent". This referee obviously didn't get the message.
www.fifa.com/about-fifa/who-we-are/news/fifa-crack-down-tackle-from-behind-70380
I agree! Time and time again I thought, "how's that not a Yellow?" The Dutch would have to finish with 8 players, if lucky. CR9 - a pure joy to watch!
Quien puede dudar que el mejor jugador de la historia estaba mal viendo este partido donde volaba y la final fue una sombra debido a los problemas que tuvo..sino abria sido campeon del mundo tambien ahi
What a player he was..
THIS IS WHY RONALDO IS THE BEST. BACK THEN REFEREES DIDN'T REALLY HELP THAT MUCH, THE DEFENDERS WILL TACKLE YOU FOR REAL AND HAVE U MENTALLY SCARED LIKE EDGAR DAVIS & STAM BUT RONALDO DOESN'T SHY AWAY FROM PHYSICAL CONTACT. FACTS💯🖤❤ #BlessingsToBrazilRonaldo
Almenos dos penaltis clarísimos le cometieron , si lo patearon bastante en ese partido
Se não fosse a lesão de 2000 seria o maior da história, nunca vi ninguém jogar igual esse cara
Holy shit. His speed are so amazing. The dutch have no clue to counter him except pin him down all the time. What a shame to see this at WC level. We all can agree we kinda missed to see this level of player nowadays. Period
Messi and CR7 have *nothing* on this guy. He was phenomenal. And he won the World Cup. Twice (was part of the 94 squad, though I don't think he played). The mistake people make about France 98 is the assumption that Zidane was a star. He was a virtual unknown before the World Cup and only became a star *after* winning the tournament, scoring twice in the final. Ronaldo, on the other hand, was already a well known superstar *BEFORE* said tournament thanks to his exploits at Inter Milan. And proof of his superstardom, Nike did an advert for that year's tournament featuring the Brazillian team playing footie in an airport.
Messi and cr7 are the best players ever... No one they can reach them
@@laflame0284 Ronaldo won two world cups when he was under 25 and in addition to being the idol of several players, Messi and CR7 are nothing in front of Ronaldo.
@@Grimm-- nothing ahahahahahahahahah next joke please
@@Grimm-- in 1994 ronaldo didn't play a match

When you talk about head and shoulders above the rest, looking at R9 play is like 1 v 11 at times. He was such a force that he took on 4-7 players by himself not even considering a pass option. Sublime skills and supreme confidence knowing he can just terrorize whomever he wants. The GOAT despite any stats or titles or numbers and BS just pure talent, eye test, impact, role, time period, opponents, rules of game....
Ronaldo era monstro...
0:48 damn good defending
We can not measure how strong he could reach if he didn't get serious knee injuries. ❤💗❤ Ronaldo Nazario is the greatest football player in my heart. If he didn't get serious knee injuries and become overweight (free from training) , he would improve to be the strongest one and could play far better than what he did that we have seen. From 2002 he did't improve or develop his talents anymore and became slower and slower and couldn't perform vigorously because afraid of his chronic injuries relapse.
He is the real king of striker 😍
He was not supposed to be the only target man in the team, he had Bebeto alongside him; Rivaldo at 2002.
He had Zamorano at Inter, too; where, in his only full season he only trailed lonely-target man and legend Bierhoff as serie A top scorer. And, getting back to Brazil, that he even thus achieved to be at one point the historical World Cup scorer, two World Cups champion, speaks volumes of his legend.
While nowadays you’re supposed to play a lonely forward, therefore getting comparatively more chances, and having other attackers focused on assisting you.
There is a case of him being the GOAT, (though Pele for me).
Oh! And don’t forget he was a legendary big game player, R9.
Aggressive man marking defense of Dutch, Brazil got many spaces due to man marking system applied by Dutch.
But what a show from Ronaldo 9, and insane defending from Dutch.
Jawad Abdullah well yeah dutchs were pretty close and they had a fantastic team aswell
Gambeteaba hasta los porteros el amo del joga bonito Demasiado poder y talento para dos simples rodillas humanas the best striker ever Ronaldo R9 🇧🇷🔥 from 🇲🇽whit love,👍🏼

OMG how i miss this football this amazing match , and of course The Phenomenon Ronaldo 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Imho the greatest player to ever step on the pitch got fouled throughout the whole match. The ref was very forgiving towards the dutch side, if he would of called the match fair the dutch would of had more than one or two players being sent off on yellows to red. The mauled the shit out of Ronaldo and the ref kept telling them to cool it time after time again. Fucking slap-dick. #fenomenoGOAT
Ese dia Ronaldo merecio hacer 5 goles. Y la defensa de lo holanda merecio que no le hicieran ninguno. Un partido brillante de ronaldo y de la defensa
1:43 when Ronaldo plays defense
LOS GRANDES 9 RECONOCEN, A RONALDO NAZARIO DA LIMA, COMO EL MEJOR DE TODOS. COMPLETO, EL FENOMENO NO FUE UN PAYASO Q SE TIRABA. RECIBIA LAS FALTAS MAS DURAS. Y NO LO AMILANABAN, GRANDE RONNI. JAMAS VOLVEREMOS A VER ALGUIEN COMO EL. UN EXTRATERRESTRE.
Para mi es el mejor de todos los tiempos solo podían detenerlo con faltas y tremendas patadas... era único tan solo 21 años.
Fenomeno eres uniko el mejor jugador que yo alla visto...
Eu acho ele o maior de todos que vi. Desde de quando ele subiu para o profissional no Cruzeiro. Ele era uma máquina de jogar futebol. Tenho saudades de vê-lo em campo, um arranque impressionante, aliado a técnica e seu poder de finalizador. Ele foi fora de série. Messi e Cr7 jogaram muito, mas o R9 ERA CRUEL.
That was a fucking world cup match not like 2018 , this match is one of the best matches of WC 1998 not to say the best, the intensity was terrible and what to say about ronaldo defenders nightmare... legendary match
This world cup was the best !!!
Just look to his speeeeed !!!
Each time he touches the ball he picks up speed... wow👌👌
