German media have already decided that Grafite’s brilliant 77th-minute solo goal in Wolfsburg’s 5-1 win over Bayern Munich on Saturday is the goal of the year.
He somehow managed to elude five Bayern players before scoring with a cheeky backheel.
It may seem a bit early to be choosing the “Tor des Jahres” with nine months left in 2009 but even the normally reserved public TV broadcast “Das Aktuelle Sportstudio” proclaimed it “the most spectacular goal in Bundesliga history”.
The electrifying goal has featured in German newscasts all weekend.
Grafite’s goal, coming two days after his 30th birthday, also served as a fitting metaphor for the season as it helped Wolfsburg jump to the top of the Bundesliga in front of Hamburg SV, Hertha Berlin and Bayern.

Another Amazing Goal by Alexander Ovechkin
Sportscenter has already called it the goal of the year in the NHL. Who else would have been responsible but Alexander Ovechkin?
Goal against the Montreal Canadiens - 2/18/09
That goal, reminds me a lot of this one (probably the best goal I've ever seen)

Tiziano Crudeli...2nd Greatest Soccer Commentator Ever?
If we have already dubbed Ray Hudson as the greatest soccer commentator ever then Tiziano Crudeli, the voice of AC Milan, has to be a close second. I would almost move him into the top spot except I don't have any clue what he is saying. He wins 2nd place based on pure passion alone.

Ray Hudson....Greatest Soccer Commentator Ever?
This video is simply breathtaking. Ray Hudson's use of adjectives and ridiculous analogies could put him over the top as the best commentator ever. Check it out.
From phrases such as "like a Jedi Knight" and "This is a bravado goal" to his love affair with Riquelme. See why Ray Hudson might be the best there is.

Cristiano's Top 10 Goals from Last Season
I guess you could say Cristiano Ronaldo is a pretty good footballer. I mean the man only scored 42 goals for Manchester United last season and became the first winger to ever win the European Golden Shoe. It's not a big deal that he led the Red Devils all the way to a Barclay's Premier League Title and a UEFA Champions League Title. Anyway, check out Cristiano's top 10 goals from 2007-2008.
