Football fans have witnessed some spectacular goals, but some stand head and shoulders above the rest for sheer beauty, including;
1. Diego Maradona (Argentina vs. England, 1986)
Without a doubt, one of the most illustrious athletes of all time and a football legend scored one of the most beautiful goals we've ever seen in football in this game when he picked up the ball in his own half and beat four defenders plus the goalkeeper before putting the ball into the empty net. That is a true display of pure quality.
George Weah is number two (1996)
Weah, voted the best football player of the twentieth century, was a handful for opposing defenders, easily beating them and finding the back of the net on numerous occasions.
This time, he picked up the ball in his own half and slode the length of the pitch before scoring past the opposing keeper.
3. Lionel Messi-Barcelona vs. Getafe (2007)
In this game, the Argentine superstar picked up the ball in the penalty area, dribbled past four opposing defenders, rounded the keeper, and slotted the ball into the net with ease.
4. Roberto Carlos-Real Madrid vs. Tenerife (1997)
The greatest left back of all time scored a spectacular goal here, defying the laws of physics.
5. Manchester City's bicycle kick by Wayne Rooney
Wayne gave Manchester United an important win here with a stunning bicycle kick, giving United a 2-1 win over Manchester City in an English Premier League match.

Cristiano Ronaldo's future remains a contentious issue among fans.
Despite having a year left on his contract, the 37-year-old has not reported for pre-season training due to 'family reasons.'
And his sister Katia Aveiro appears to believe he has little chance of staying at United.
According to the Manchester Evening News, a fan commented on one of Katia's Instagram photos, Cristiano will stay [in] Manchester?
To which she responded (as translated by Google): I suggest some glasses... a span of brain or else learn to read haaaa and notion.
While some of the message is lost in translation, it is still possible to understand what his sister is trying to say.
Ronaldo is said to be upset about having to take a pay cut like the rest of the United team. The inability to compete in the Champions League has also contributed to his sudden change of heart about staying.
