Co.Down Hibee Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28051698 Vote for who you think scored the best goal of the 1st stage ,some absolute crackers , I went for Robbens goal against Spain just ahead of Messi v Bosnia and Cahills wonder strike against Holland. can't remember the opening round of the WC having this many great goals in it.

welshbairn Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Voted for Rodriguez just for the cocky arrogance of it. Both of Messi's were probably more challenging given the packed penalty area, and Cahill's strike was sublime, but the youngster gets my vote.

ExiledSaint Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Ha-mes Rodriguez for me, left the defender and goalkeeper on their arses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerwickMad Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Cahill for me. Followed by Robben and RVP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetterlund Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 For difficulty of execution and spectacular scenes I don't think anything comes close to Cahill's effort. Would be surprised if there's one to top it in the tournament. can't remember the opening round of the WC having this many great goals in it. Surprised at this - I've been disappointed by the lack of spectacular goals, considering the amount of goals there have been. Plenty of good goals of course but very few screamers, they all seem to have hit the bar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I'd have Shaqiri's first goal against Honduras in there somewhere. The best goal is still Van Persie's diving header. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecto Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 It is RVP, the way he had a look at the keeper 1st, superb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Between RVP and Cahill for me, RVP edges it because of the excitement of it and the end result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Van Persie, Messi, Messi. In that order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Cort's Hamstring Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 There's quite a few that should be in there ahead of Memphis Depay's imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaldo Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 It has to be Cahill's. That he didn't even take a touch before hand and it was immediately after the Netherlands scored made it all the more special Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Simao Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Van Persie's header. Iconic goal that was the beginning of the end for one of the all time great international teams. Not sure why the Depay goal is an option. Messi's free kick, Shaqiri's 1st goal, Chile's 1st vs Spain, Dempsey vs Ghana and Robben's 2nd against Spain were much better.

I'd also put Algeria's 4th against South Korea and Rooney's against Uruguay ahead of that one. Odd pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
