Okay, so here's my idea. Each week as many of us know, there is a goal of the week; of high quality, but usually from a well known league. I'd like to create a post where fans can share a great goal of the week, but its one that many of us will not see because its not in the top five or in a lesser league than say the EPL, Spanish Primera, etc. For example: Last week in a game between Venezuela and Peru in the South American Under-20 World Cup qualifying tournament in Peru 2011 - Fourth Round.
What a cracking goal that is great run, sweet strike. I think this is a great idea, the goal of the week has a huge biased but that's the nature of the beast. It amazes me that Vidic was number one, not that great a goal, were as Marchissio strike was sheer genius
I remember seeing this in one of the highlight shows and wondering why he wasn't passing the ball, and then understanding later after the goal why he didn't pass! A goal he will never forget!
Great idea for a thread Lifeguard. Ant and I were discussing creating a similar thread months ago, but we were both too lazy to get it going, haha. I've stickied this

Thanks Jeroen, now hopefully people will make use of it
Maybe we should start considering some of these as goals of the week

Yeah - if only all 50, 000+ EPL fans on here didn't vote for any goal that their team scores - barring the Wayne Rooney goal which was indeed the goal of the week
.... And I was going to post this one as well, lol

You have seen the forum post, you have read the thread, you have understood the concept, and you know this is the wrong place.
But fuck it, you'll post it anyway. There must be literally 10's of football fans, on this football video highlights website that haven't seen this goal, scored by one of the world's most famous players, for one of the world's most famous clubs.
Take it easy NN, the purpose of this thread is to highlight goals that aren't in the top 5 of the footytube starting page. Sure, It's Villa from Barça from the Primera División, but not many saw it because it was in an unspectacular 1-1draw. Had a bad day?

What a performance! Our future is bright with this lad in the youth team. Looks like he can play on either side of the pitch and what clinical finishing, it is one thing to skip past a few players and get yourself in good positions but to know where the goal is and how to score is a special quality. King Kenny will be keeping an eye on him I am sure, too bad Luis already has the number 7 kit, this kid looks like a true number 7 and a rightful heir to Kenny's shirt not that I am complaining about Suarez having it haha
I heard that someone scored a better overhead kick than the one that Rooney scored. Somewhere in France? Anyone have a link to that video? I have no idea who scored it so I'm out of luck....
Btw Van Persie's goal being rated higher than Rooney's is a disgrace

Yes, Lyon versus Nancy - although it'd be hard to argue that it was better than Rooney's, it was also good - Jimmy Briand is the goal scorer
