Swansea you're obviously a Welsh, English hater - you mug.
It was OK - but let's see him pull off something similar when it matters - not in a low intensity match in freezing cold Stockholm on a dark November night. Pull off something in a world cup and I'll be impressed. |

It was indoors

His goal against Italy was a back to goal, goal, could have gone anywhere, not intentional, basically another hit and hope, just much closer. Not to mention it was a group match in a group in which Italy failed to progress with the mighty Denmark and Bulgaria in alongside them, that's how good they were then.
He was actually close to becoming an Arsenal player way back in 2000, came to the training ground, posed with the shirt, but rejected the move after Wenger asked him to join in training - as part of a trial, he turned it down and went to Ajax. Thankfully, he would got in Henry and Bergkamps' way - real quality. |

Mugmerised stop trying to steal my thunder __________ Zlatan Ibrahimovic's Goal mesmerised 15 Nov 12 08:10 Zlatan- If ever a game and goal summed a player up this was it R0ykeane 15 Nov 12 09:48 I know you're not the brightest star in the sky R0y 'oddball' Keane, but surely even a simpleton like you can tell the time ffs ![]() |

Zlat does it to often, so cannot be called a fluke

|
By:
His stats are impressive, but when talking about the greatest players of his generation - how many people's stop 20 would he make? not many.
|
|
By:
Anyone who does not understand why this was an unbelievably great goal simply knows nothing about football..i would go further and say their judgement on any subject is in doubt
|
|
By:
great technique, problem being it was a hit and hope effort on goal, all back to goal, goals are, are they not,
|
|
By:
not the case,a footballer rarely has to look at the goal,it is instinctive a natural abilty nothing to do with hit and hope
|
|
By:
instinctive for him to score an overhead goal from 25 yards out, back to goal -not knowing where the defence is?
I think he's overrated by too many people, would he make your top 20 - of his generation? |
|
By:
He was adle to know almost exactly where the defence were. This is something instinctive that a lot of very good players have.Players have a natural feel for this
|
|
By:
Answer this.
If he tried that 100 times - how many times do you think he'd score it - I would hazard a guess at ONE. He's a fraud who wouldn't get into anyone's first choice 11 in the last 12 years, his record in Italy is good because it's a pedestrian league, he couldn't cut it at Barca where they shipped him out after a year and now he hides in the doldrums of French football. |
|
By:
Yes that is the point,maybe he could do it again and maybe not.But the fact remains that very few players could do this and of those few an even smaller percentage would successfully do it
|

By:
You have never really seen a goal like this before,like Van Bastens
|
|
By:
Easily Top 20 of his generation mes.
The best 'big man' in the game, and his generation, by a distance. Clubs pay a lot of money for quality big men. Hell, some clubs pay massive money for a sh1t 'big man' up front. He wins the league everywhere he goes. If you sign him...you win the league. It's almost a given. |
|
By:
The goal itself is beyond reproach...to call it a hit and hope is nothing but fishery
I can't think of another elite player who could have pulled that off or even had the ego to attempt it (that's not to say there isnt). Wow. But as Mes says, with ability like that we should be talking about an all time great. Instead he's like an global le tiss. Scores a cracker every now and then and feeds his cult followers. |
|
By:
Roy the point you make about ego is true because ther was the possibility it would go embarrasingly wrong. And you can see how he had time to think about what he was going to do. That is part of its greatness

You have never really seen a goal like this before,like Van Bastens Ooh dear lord, please tell me you didn't just say that, I'll give you the opportunity to retract that statement that given it's early still and your brain is probably still waking up, I could roll off a list of 50 goals off the top of my head better than Ibra's goal - starting with..Peter Crouch's goal for Stoke last year v Man City por ejemplo - now that was off the top draw, Ibra's was hit and hope - have I said that already ![]() |

There are only a few things in football that are unique and had never been seen before.Van Bastens goal is one(i could explain why)the Cruff turn another.The way Pele dummied the Perivian goalkeper 1970 another AND THIS GOAL

He wins the league everywhere he goes. If you sign him...you win the league. It's almost a given. As an arsenal fan, I'm disappointed in your eye for a player if you think he's in the top 20 of the last 12 years - not only that, I or shall I say we, could both name a few Arsenal players of years gone by above and beyond anything Ibra's so called talent has produced. And we're just one club. There are only a few things in football that are unique and had never been seen before.Van Bastens goal is one(i could explain why)the Cruff turn another.The way Pele dummied the Perivian goalkeper 1970 another AND THIS GOAL how was that unique? it could so easily have gone anywhere,m he got lucky - do you watch alot of Italian, spanish football - he fluffs all the time, this one came off as Roystons said only his ego allows him to try audacious shots, this one just so happened to have come off. |
|
By:
Mes you dont understand.It is impossible for a goal requiring this technique to just come off! It requires an almost supernatural ability. This is something that can not be fluked
|

By:
Supernatural ability?

And you can see how he had time to think about what he was going to do. That is part of its greatness I don't think, with his ability to volley a ball, there was ever a chance it was going to be an embarrassing effort. Worst case senario there was one of those...'what a goal that would have been moments'. What I liked best about it is once hart's **** up you can see his mind working, he has a perfect picture of the situation and every single detail...the elevation required..the defenders the lot. Wonder goal. |

By:
At last someone who can see what was required to score this goal
|
|
By:
He's a bit like Cantona was, bit of an image, struts around, looking a bit moody, pops up with the odd wonder strike, lucky or not, and then he has googly eyed onlookers pretending to know about football - salivating over his every move. Other than in his own delusional mind, he won't be remembered a a great - fact.

you have a bulging net here mesmerised,nice catch sir.....well done

Nothings funnier this morning that listening to the complete mugs saying "it was a friendly so it doesnt really count". As if while the ball was in the air Zlatko thinks 'its only a friendly I might as well have a go'
Idiots. |
|
By:
I tell a lie , there is something funnier - the betfair vote on which is the best goal Zlatkos or Rooneys v Man City.
One is a strike you might never see again in your lifetime , the other a ten-a-penny shin volley. |
|
By:
The thing is mesmerised, there have been loads of great volleys and overhead kicks over the years, Crouch as you say, Scholes got one at Villa, Shearer for Newcastle, Rooney etc etc, but because this goal was so unique, never been seen before, it has a rightful claim to be one of the best goals.
