I think in order to be considered "best," you should be able use both feet if not equally well..pretty close. Yes those guys a good but I can think of people that names arent as high on the radar that I consider much better. No one can touch Maradona..or Pele to me..that is soccer. The tricks of today are nice but that was pure soccer

Dear Joe,\nTo be honest with you,it's not true at all.In Persian we have a proverb as said: 5 fingers of the same hand are not the same .\nEverything or everyone has some good aspects and some bad aspects(or better to say,advantages & disadvantages).\nRonaldo is still useful for the team and Ronaldinho is nowadays great too.\nBest Regards.........Iranaian Bobby

Are you talking about their 'acting' ability?\n\nIf yes, then Arjen Robben, see his dive yesterday against the Ivory Coast?\n\nBut wait, he got caught.\nSo probably Rivaldo, for his performance against Turkey in the last World Cup. You can watch it on youtube.

Definitely it was a two footed lunge which means an automatic yellow card . Remember 2002 when Henry got a red card straight for such a challenge. If these challenges hit hard they can dislocate a players feet & end his career.

Just see how the 22 players mingle with one ball. I always wonder how they can pass the ball so correctly. Ronaldinho? Wow...he is one of the wonders of the world.

I think the World Cup 2006 has not yet reached the phase where you can talk about who is heading for the golden shoe. The first round hasn't even finished yet. If Ronaldo wants it he'd better start playing football instead of what he is doing now. Christiano Ronaldo has now scored one goal in 149 minutes, which is not enough if you want to be topscorer.\n\nFifa has a poll on their site and they nominate:\nMiroslav Klose (GER)\nMichael Owen (ENG)\nRuud van Nistelrooij (NED)\nAli Karimi (IRN)\nLuca Toni (ITA)\nRonaldinho (BRA)\nThierry Henry (FRA)\nAndriy Shevchenko (UKR)\n\nSome of those also seem unlikely, I have to admit. \n\nDon't misunderstand I think Christiano Ronaldo is a great player and of course he can still score lots of goals this WC. Ronaldo I think is no longer the great player he once was. He won the golden shoe in 2002.\n\nIf your question means I have to choose between those 2 I'd say Christiano Ronaldo.

Roger Federrer is uber fantastic. His jumpshots are killer and he can score a three from any where on the turf. He needs more practice in urban development, though.  I'd like to see him play Pele, because they both had super bowl rings on all six fingers. So my answer is maybe.

David.. has the hardest free kick today. but yet the record is for Roberto Carlos from 1994 penaulties against italy.. a kind of kick u would not want to be in the way..\n\nyet about the best every, alot of ppl say Pele this Pele that. Yes, he was a great player.. but better then him was Garrincha.. with 2 crocked legs, and one shorter then the other.. NO one could tell which way he was going.. the ball would turn his best friend of his feet.. and he would just glide thru the fields with it on his feeet.. leavin everyone behind.. but like many ppl that becoma famous too quick.. he got into alcohol, woman, and drugs.. so his soccer carrer was very short compared to Peles. idk the name of the disease but cuz of all his drinkin, the alcohol damaged his liver so bad where it wouldnt clean his blood out anymore.. and with that.. he ended up in the coffin..\n\n\nso yea Garincha i would say..\n\nand then Pele,\n\nand Diego Marradona.. but then same thing.. cocaine killed his soccer carrer

Probably the longest can be considered the ones done by goalkeepers and reach the other goal. Some goalkeepers have scored a goal in this way. Not in this world cup.

george weah is great but pele is the better footballer..\n\nPelé's technique and deft touch combined with his dribbling skills and scoring ability have been universally praised. His most spectacular signature move was probably the "bicycle kick".\n\nWeah being known as one of the best footballers never to have played in a World Cup.

In the US Mexicans look to the side they wont shoot at even until they kick 75% of the time. W/ Whites they know that right footed soccer players kick to their left 65% of the time so they if they are right footed power it to their left or finesse it to the right on most occasions.

90% of brazilains are catholic alot of players have little things they do i always put my left boot on first, Ince never put his shirt on til he got out of the tunnel, I think it's just how people handle the pressure,  although i don't have OCD! well i don't think i do!

It would be Ronaldinho. And, by the way, the answer IS indeed about football (how it is called by all the world except for the US), which is played with feet and a ball (hence, called football), which (American) "football" is not (ironically enough, it is played with the hands (not feet) and with an ovoid, not a ball) :-)

It's when you are dribbling the ball and you use one or both legs to continuously step over the ball very quickly without touching it as the ball is rolling in order to confuse the opponent as to what you are planning to do with the ball.  One person who uses this technique very frequently (or at least used to) is Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United.  He rapidly steps over the ball with both feet many times and opponents generally have no idea where he is going to pass/shoot/dribble the ball.

Goerge Hagi, probably. He was insane;y good, and he played for huge clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona Galatasary. Also he had a wicked freekick.

It was shevchenko and it still is. Everyone needs to jump off the ronaldinho bandwagon. Don't get me wrong he's brilliant but when it comes down to all the skills that makes a forward "the best" he doesn't have them. Ronaldinho is fast, has good footwork, but lacks passing ability and his ambidextrous ability is poor. Shevchenko is fast, tall, strong, passing is impeccable, and his left foot is just as strong and effective as his right foot. He's the ultimate weapon.....

I heard once they were disqualified for not agreeing to wear shoes during the match. Yes. Just looked it up. Here ya go:D And they weren't FIFA members before that.\n\nFourth World Cup - Brazil 1950 - Qualifying stage \nIndia were invited by FIFA and the Brazilian Football Federation but didn't take part because most of the Indian players played the game barefooted
