#8: Roberto Baggio: Italy vs Czechoslovakia, 1990
Trending
Roberto Baggio will be remembered for three things: his mullet, missing the infamous penalty kick against Brazil (which cost Italy the 1994 World Cup) and this miraculous goal against Czechoslovakia, which saw the then-burgeoning striker take on half the team before ultimately finding the back of the net. The now legendary strike brought the home crowd to its knees and to this day remains one of the best individual efforts in World Cup history.
#7: Michael Owen: England vs Argentina, 1998
When Michael Owen scored this miraculous goal as an 18-year-old, a superstar was born. With the teenager's prodigious talents already the talk of England, Michael Owen announced his arrival on the world stage by roaring past Argentina's Jose Chamot, then Roberto Ayala before blasting the ball by the goalkeeper, Carlos Roa.
Though England went on to lose the match, Owen's goal proved to be one of the top moments of the tournament. Owen has since been unable to live up to his billing as England's savior, but that goal will ensure his position at the top of England's football lore.
