Was in the net before he even set himself to dive. Ronaldinho at this point was the Balondor winner and playing incredible football. Out of this world.
I remember watching this game live and being absolutely stunned. I routinely watched Serie A and EPL (since those were the only leagues I had on cable) and hadn't heard of Ronaldinho before this match. Instantly my favourite player after that.
Originally from Coventry England and I was 14 and watxhing and rooting for Chelsea obv as they were English. I was like ummm the fuck just happened. Turned around as I was sitting on the floor looked at my dad and he just said. He’s just class isn’t he. Was brilliant
The memory of this day will stay with me forever. I remember running 8 minutes full speed from the subway to home so i wouldnt miss a single minute of the game. Living at my moms place at that time i yelled so hard when he scored this goal, my mom woke up and came in the livingroom with a sleepy/shocked face asking if im okay 😅
Saw it live back in the day. Looks impossible to score but heh, it was Ronaldinho, he could do the impossible. An unbelievable player. If he was playing today he'd cost over £200M.
Yes! When the biggest game of the Champions League Knockout rounds always got shown on ITV for free. See some classics commentated by him from 99-15 before it all went to pay to watch only
I'm a united fan and have seen hundreds that i love but that was and is the best goal i've ever seen in a professional football match.. Don't look much but wow what a player and what a goal 👏
I miss football during these days. I think partly because i was younger but it felt like magic. Champions league on free tv. Ronaldinho, Henry and others etc.
Watched this game live, to this day I’ve never seen a goal like it, the mind boggles with this guy, superstar talent with a ball at his feet, petr cech never even had a sniff!
Best goal i have ever watched live. Simply breathtaking. For me peak Ronaldinho was the best player i have ever witnessed. I know the game is all about opinions but for me that spell between 2004 and 2006 no player has come close to that for me.
This goal was typical of the player. Such as joy to watch. For me that 2-3 years at Barca were just magical at that time he was the best player of the planet. It’s just a crying shame that he couldn’t do it like messi did but still unbelievable career
Messi is hated and loved but Ronaldinho will always have a spot in our hearts, now that’s a bigger accomplishment than any prize football has to offer. He made me fall in love with football
That's the most unique goal in football's history since, unlike other great goals, no one ever even tried to replicate it. Not even Messi or Ronaldo or anyone.
It is so special, because nothing like it was scored before or after, the dance, the decision in a fraction of second, the power and percision from standing position not from movement, the distance to the goal, the pressure from the player coming from behind, the occasion against one of the best defensive teams and one of the best goalkeepers in history under Mourinho. It was a perfect painting by an artist, not a mere goal
Remember watching this live my jaw literally dropped, peak Ronaldinho was a joy to watch
Not even a deflection on it lol what a player
@@anthonyhurn1988 " Oh it's a terrific goal ! "
Possibly my favourite goal ever. When he was at his peak, he made you want to watch football.
Stop using literally
And we question if he meant that free kick
One of the most unique goals EVER
What does this mean? Most unique?
@@LimitedOutputno one has scored a goal similar
I've seen plenty of toe pokes in Sunday league
@@nickgold8534 Toe pokes like the one Ronaldinho scored in the video? Yeah right..
@@nickgold8534yeah toe poke with a little bit of salsa... suuure thing
I come back and watch this goal, every few years, just to reaffirm that Ronaldinho is the real GOAT.
He is the chosen one
same
Most ppl will say Messi or C.Ronaldo but they never come close to this magic legend!
The sad part is the defenders did nothing wrong. They where all actually good positioned..... 😅
😂😂😂😂😂❤😂😂😂😂😂
I count myself blessed to have witness this goal live😂
My favourite goal of all time🤩
Legend says Petr Cech still doesn't know what happened.
What a time to be alive watching Ronaldinho play !
One thing i love about this goal is that Petr Cech was an absolute beast at this point in his career and even he didn't know what happened 😂
Was in the net before he even set himself to dive. Ronaldinho at this point was the Balondor winner and playing incredible football. Out of this world.
He mightve been knocked out before thw quarter finals but he was the best in the world at that point

What you say about RONALDINHO IN ONE WORD🎉
Incredible goal with the greatest commentator of all time Clive Tydsley 🐐
Saw it live back in the day. Looks impossible to score but heh, it was Ronaldinho, he could do the impossible. An unbelievable player. If he was playing today he'd cost over £200M.
And some,
Unbelievable player
Much more than 200, that number was paid for Neymar.
Shivers in my spine from this. The nostalgia man… what a time and what a fucking player. What a goal.
The Most Entertain Footballer of All Time, Passion & Joy at uts Best. Footballer & Dancer blended into One. Pure Genius
Almost! Don't get me wrong...he's one of my favs, if not my fav!! But ...when I see him play one name always comes to mind:"MANE"

Saw this match live on TV. Great times.

Well he played against Man United right ? I think it was with AC Milan.
Ill never forget watching this live. Unbelievable goal

It's so funny looking back at how wild it was in comparison to today.
Not nostalgia, Football was much much better back then, Guardiola turned it into chess
Watched this game live, to this day I’ve never seen a goal like it, the mind boggles with this guy, superstar talent with a ball at his feet, petr cech never even had a sniff!
For as long as I live I will NEVER forget this goal... Jesus Christ I used too idolize this guy 💓💓
No stopping this man this season
Samba and score 🤯
No similar gol in history
Dinho is a football genius
Greatest "ball at feet" player I've seen in my lifetime. Just a joy to watch.
The best ever player, simple as
You're on drugs
I remember coming home from school and watching this goal on the news. I was in awe and that’s an understatement.
Not a single person watched that game live, not even his teammates knew that he would do that.
This goal defies the laws of physics
Best goal i have ever watched live. Simply breathtaking. For me peak Ronaldinho was the best player i have ever witnessed. I know the game is all about opinions but for me that spell between 2004 and 2006 no player has come close to that for me.
1998 -2002 r9
Maybe a step further
what a beast
Joy of football
One of my faves
What a goal magic brazil
The only goal where I've just been genuinely confused at what I just saw
best goal in champions league history
"Petr cech petr cech never moved"
Imo, this is the greatest goal of all time. The level of skill & difficulty is off the charts.

@@ovalboomboom4270: absolutely with 2 world cups & 1 UEFA😂😂 WON NOTHING MAKING NOISE😂😂😂
Ronaldinho has literally scored better goals than this but its still a great goal
Another player scoring first then dancing, but ronaldinho dancing first then scoring❤😊😊
Seen this goal more than I’ve seen my kids

Better than Messi
More entertaining, but Messi is the most efficient, the best
Gracias a él me intereso el futbol

Gran Goooll
Y aparte al porterazo de Peter Cech bárbaro

You have to watch a lot of matches to know how special this goal is.
“the brazilian” dat used to mean something in football
To this day I still don’t know how he scored
Best goal for pierluigi collina
I just couldn't believe what I saw. I thought he was making some dodgy pass/lobbed cross whilst he was actually shooting.
Mago❤
That Chelsea Team was rock solid under Mourinho
Hey, anybody know where I can watch this match with these exact English casters?
Ronaldinho made Carvalho and Cech like stupid. As Chelsea fan, I hate to admit it, yet it is a good goal.
Shame andy townsend was commentator 😂 Dull Dull Dull

özge is better but meral is the best

It was a good goal but why do people say it's the best goal ever? didn't look like anything all that special. I don't get it
It is so special, because nothing like it was scored before or after, the dance, the decision in a fraction of second, the power and percision from standing position not from movement, the distance to the goal, the pressure from the player coming from behind, the occasion against one of the best defensive teams and one of the best goalkeepers in history under Mourinho.
