So what will it be? I voted the ATAR goal (which I posted here some time ago....) but my next one would be Essien's. From the ratings, it looks like Atar will win it (4.8/5 while all others are below 4).... What did you vote?

That Atar bicycle goal reminds of this Neto Goal from 1989 when he used to play for Corinthians:

Yogan (Chelsea) 2 years ago
Damn that was well hard I had two in mind - that Eliran Atar bycicle kick and Essien's flying volley against Barca but I had to vote for the best goal and it just nicked it the end and since I'm a true Blue I wasn't going to betray.... What a volley
Rzv36 (Real Madrid) 2 years ago
All great goals.... But Essien's stunner I think it's the best
Senthil (Chelsea) 2 years ago
For me its huntelaar goal by last week, he shoot nise and perfect cheeky chip shot against catania, please see this video , this would be the goal of the year so far.

Incuteration (Everton) 2 years ago
No, that chip is really cheeky and accurate but it really couldn't compete with the likes of Atar's bicycle kick and Grafite's solo goal
Thenylo (Santos) 2 years ago
It depends when the goal happened....

"The final decision will be down to you, the users of FIFA.com, with your votes counting towards selecting a winner from ten videos as chosen by the FIFA Football Committee. In making their decision, the FIFA Football Committee applied the following criteria:

1. Aesthetics (a subjective criterion – long-range shots, team moves, acrobatic goals etc)
2. The importance of the match (an objective criterion – in descending order: national teams, continental tournaments, domestic first divisions)
3. The absence of luck or an opposition mistake as a factor making the goal possible
4. Fair Play: the player must not have conducted himself poorly during the game or, for example, have been found guilty of doping
5. The date: goals scored between July 2008 and July 2009"
Senthil (Chelsea) 2 years ago

We already had a footytube GotY contest, and this one won:


Not even on the list?!?!
ManUK (Manchester United) 2 years ago
Oh dear "embedding disabled by request" certainly wasn't on the list
ManUK (Manchester United) 2 years ago
Hey yea. We should start a petition for that one to be goal of the year
Gbherron (Seattle Sounders) 2 years ago
Admins, I tried something like 10 videos and all of them said : "embedding disabled by request - Watch on Youtube"
Is this just doing it for me, or can other people not embed as well?
Yogan (Chelsea) 2 years ago
Happened with my fliiping video for the footytube video competition. I'm 11 and I don't know what it means. I just click the link
Darius (Aston Villa) 2 years ago
You can tell whether embedding is disabled or not by looking at the "Embed" bar right beneath the "Url" bar.
MenUk (Manchester United) 2 years ago
The best goal is scored by johan gourcouff of bordeaux simply genius
Ciankc (Manchester United) 2 years ago
I can't het the clip to play. It says you need a security upgrade. What?
Neonseong (Liverpool) 2 years ago
My vote went to goes for Torres, but that's um.... Obvious, however Grafite's goals, Essien's goal, and Atar's goal were just as amazing. As MenUK point's out Gourcouff's goal was also very amazing, odd to see it missing here
StrikersMT28 (Seattle Sounders) 2 years ago
footytube already had a goal of the year nomination and vote, here were the nominees:

Gourcuff (FCBG) vs PSG - 12/1/09


Grafite (VfL Wolfsburg) vs Bayern Munich - 6/4/09


Ibrahimovic (Inter Milan) vs Atalanta - 31/5/09


Julio Baptista (AS Roma) vs Torino - 18/1/09


Bentley (Tottenham) vs Arsenal - 29/10/08 Goal at 2:10

Yogan (Chelsea) 2 years ago
Baptista wins that for me, what an amazing take and finish, never plays for Brazil any more but he should because that was pure class. Control and a scorcher to finish

By the way, when was this?
Gbherron (Seattle Sounders) 2 years ago
Yeah, you should note that I meant Goal of the Year as in the 2008-2009 season, which includes all but about 5 leagues
Incuteration (Everton) 2 years ago
Yogan, here's the thread. Gourcuff won it, although I voted for Grafite's goal lol.

Zzlatan (Barcelona) 2 years ago
I think Essien's goal was superb volley, and I love that.

But iniesta's goal which took barca in finals against united deserves to be goal of the year.




Visca Barca!
Haules (Chelsea) 2 years ago

Elian Atar (Bnei Yehuda Tel Aviv F.See.) vs. Maccabi Netanya
