I think the best goal for FIFA World Cup 1998 was... Dennis Bergkamp from Netherlands.He's goal against Argentina for Quarter-Finals match.

It is called three touch shoot!

That is the most wonderful goal at 98’WC

Will be replayed for years to come

Will be replayed for years to come

That goal stands out even more while being juxtaposed with other great goals. Every touch in that goal was important and special.

Roa just left his hand up

Not still, but even more and more, since we can't see this kind of artistry in modern football anymore.

I can't believe FIFA die not include RAUL GOAL against Nigeria. It was better than most of goals here. As usually FIFA and media always trying to invisibilize Real Madrid and Real Madrid players.

​@@lucattsurRaul's goal is definitely Top 🎱 mate

same here, my favorite one till today

Something special Abt this world cup. Favorite ever

💯

Yes! This WC was full of the best, old and new.. It is hard to better the 98 to 02 era.. what has happened to football in the last 20 years?

My fave World Cup too. Almost every country had a standout star, plus the big footballing countries had squads that were stacked with talent.

0:01 Mustapha Hadji (Morocco 2-2 Norway) 0:33 Pierre Njanka (Cameroon 1-1 Austria) 1:07 Sunday Oliseh (Nigeria 3-2 Spain) 1:30 C. Blanco (Mexico 2-2 Belgium) 1:54 Adrian Ilie (Romania 1-0 Colombia) 2:20 Robert Prosinecki (Croatia 3-1 Jamaica) 2:55 Michael Owen (England 2-2 Argentina) 3:17 Rivaldo (Brazil 3-2 Denmark) 3:47 Dennis Bergkamp (Netherlands 2-1 Argentina) 4:21 Lilian Thuram (France 2-1 Croatia)

Bergkamp's wonder goal is the most beautiful thing I have EVER seen on LIVE TV, there is NO SUBSTITUTE. 🇳🇱

Thuram at 1 ? 😂😂

he fouled the defender-@@rp0135

Holland that time was my favorite team. So cool and so unlucky...

@@rp0135 There is no order i think. The order of goals is chosen arbitrary.

@@user-dx8en9bc6l I'm a hardcore fan of Dutch football (though not much of the current team) but take it from me, bad luck is when you hit a post or a player suffers an injury...losing in a penalty shootout is not luck, its temperament and technique under pressure. I'm not saying a penalty shootout does not involve luck but you can't blame failure solely on luck. Missing chances (which Holland had in the semi-final against Brazil) isn't luck. This was the last truly great Dutch team (the Robben/Sneijder generation was more successful in the world cup reaching the final and a semi-final but were inferior to this team) and I was gutted when they lost to Brazil in 1998 but on reflection it wasn't luck. Just as Brazil in 1982 were not "unlucky". Again, gifting the opposition goals through poor defending and defensive blunders is not luck. Football has too much of this alibi/excuse culture compared to other sports where the buck stops.

0:01 Mustapha Hadji (Morocco 2-2 Norway) 0:33 Pierre Njanka (Cameroon 1-1 Austria) 1:07 Sunday Oliseh (Nigeria 3-2 Spain) 1:30 C. Blanco (Mexico 2-2 Belgium) 1:54 Adrian Ilie (Romania 1-0 Colombia) 2:20 Robert Prosinecki (Croatia 3-1 Jamaica) 2:55 Michael Owen (England 2-2 Argentina) 3:17 Rivaldo (Brazil 3-2 Denmark) 3:47 Dennis Bergkamp (Netherlands 2-1 Argentina) 4:21 Lilian Thuram (France 2-1 Croatia)

Yeah, it seemed like he had that perfect or near-perfect first touch that certain modern players today have… 🤘✌️

100% agree

How Bergkamp pre-planned his moves its crazy

it was his play, long pass , great ball control and quick execution, that was how Ajax played at that time, it was all Ajax school of football, and Bergkamp and de Boer were masters of that, nothing absurd about that, it was many years before tactic of one million passes before attempt to shoot become reality

#1 WC goal in my known world dude, #2 is Borgetti in '02 vs. Italia. I was 9 in '86 and not appreciative of the beautiful game to see D10S LIVE in Mexico City!😏

0:01 Mustapha Hadji (Morocco 2-2 Norway) 0:33 Pierre Njanka (Cameroon 1-1 Austria) 1:07 Sunday Oliseh (Nigeria 3-2 Spain) 1:30 C.

My 2 other all time great Dennis goals . ❤❤ wow

And Valderrama's huge hair.

Así es mi estimado amigo totalmente de acuerdo contigo y también para mí la mejor selección de fútbol que a tenido México lo digo porque soy mexicano y tenia 15 años en aquel mundial saludos

if Romario, Gascoige could play that tournament, i think this best of the best

​@@gustavoalcantara579así es mi buen Gus. En tercero de secundaria

Easily Top 🎱ALL TIME in ALL competitions, not just WC. Messi's goal against Getafe is on that list too. I would place Borgetti's SUBLIME and skillful header as the BEST header in all World Cups (yes, much better than Van Persie).

Техника у него всегда была на уровне

Amazing goal, check out also Suker goal vs Ireland in 1999.

He was special!

Very very special some people like Dennis are just naturally gifted

And he had one of the best assists in WC history that same game!

Together with van Persie’s header in 2014

Bergkamp's goal in Marseilles is the #1 World Cup goal since I've been alive.

2006 wc тоже отличный

The best was in Russia in 2018!

Talking about rising to the occasion!

Too bad he clearly fouled the defender. This wc was awesome but also rigged...

not better than Sierra's free kick Chile vs Cameroon

Eric Wynalda USA v Swiss .... in '94

If England had a player like owen or rooney today, they would win the next world cup efortless...

@@BR21490 for sure, why not? I hope to see them in World Cup final 2026 .

​@BR21490 you mean someone like Harry kane?

yes, Owen was like: "gimme the ball..... I'm in the R9 mode right now" :D

@@BR21490 Kane is better than both combined lol

I was 13 years old back then. My first real World Cup. In 1994 I was just too little and though I watched it I couldn't remember much.

I like your post. '86 was the first WC I was cognizant about, however at age 9 I didn't pay much attention😏 wore the Italia '90 shirt and saw a few games. '98 is when football spoke to me 😌 my ultimate WC is Deutschland '06 when I was on host soil for the first time🇩🇪

It was a clear foul

He only scored 2 goals for france in his career. And both of them against croatia in semifinal

@@igorgagula1769 didn`t know that! must have been the game of his life.

there should be a list of the all time LEFT footed strikes in the World Cup dude, Thurman's would likely make the Top 25🤔

Also the Raúl goal against Nigeria should have been in this top. FIFA always hate Real Madrid players and love Negreiralona FC players

I remember like It was today, was a saturday.

​@@ALARGADORDECU saturday at 15 P.M and goal of raul 🇪🇸 magnifico

I cant believe it

Raul's against Nigeria was more beautiful and didn't go in.

Raul's? LOL@@RobertoSilva-vy5le

Well it was definitely an unbelievable moment for him and us supporters : not only he had never scored for France before (and never scored with them ever again despite remaining a team member for 8 more years) but it was his second goal of the night, and it came after a mistake from him which allowed Croatia to take the lead. Unreal...

@@Jeeon Thank you for this eye-opening info bro, makes the goal all the more amazing!

Bear in mind he was a Right Back (Who was subsequently used as a Centre Back for much of his career) shooting with his weaker left foot, no wonder he was surprised

Naw, he had that prepared - that celebration mimicked Rodin's "The Thinker"

@@paulcalixte2223 The two goals he scored in this game were the ONLY 2 he ever scored for France apparently. Is it likely that a DEFENDER who never scores has time to think about and prepare goal celebrations?

Văn Toàn ghi vô lưới Lào nữa.

Just a copy of Brolins 4 years earlier against Romania😉

There are so many world class footballer in the 1998 World Cup. I sometimes watch Argentina vs Netherlands. Argentina had an important chance to win after Numan was sent off. After Batistuta hit the post, Ortega was sent off and Bergkamp scored the winning goal. So unlucky for Argentina.

more like speed

No one attempted to tackle him

There was no chance. He would come full speed and change direction based on your posture,@@andrewjoyce9038 . He did it countless times.

I was 13 that time and it was my first World Cup. I can exactly felt what you felt that time !

Esa pelota es la Tristar, la última de la familia Tango (1978-1998) La familia --> Tango 1978 - Tango España 1982 - Azteca 1986 - Etrusco 1990 - Questra 1994 y Tristar 1998. Saludos!

Más que España mejor dicho. España la única semifinal que llegó a jugar fue la del 2010 donde fueron campeones.

Inglaterra es pechofrio

Inglaterra 🏆 1966 Croacia 👻

@@danmolina7490 la final que le ganaron en tiempo suplementario a alemania con el famoso _gol fantasma_

Oh right... When did Croatia win it? 😂

Raul's goal against Nigeria for example

Yeah, Saddam Hussein was the never the same after that double goal salvo from Lillian.

I believe Norway is the only team Brazil have never beaten.

@@rodrigodecastro_ Ironically, this was our last win in the World Cup. Haven't even qualified for anything since then. Brazil jinxed us

Same here. And the mini-cup the year before was awesome!

it's a compilation with no set rankings, clearly we all know in our hearts that Dennis Bergkamp's is one of the BEST goals of the century and history of the beautiful game 😌
