Football has a long history of heart-stopping chest-pounding moments of brilliance.

Even the most jaded, half-hearted fair-weather football fans can't deny the sheer magic of a brilliant goal, even those times when the ball ends up in your teams net.

Here are several reasons that make us truly believe that football really is the beautiful game.

Football's top 10 greatest goals. Ever.

10. Zidane v Leverkusen

In this video Zidane shows perfect technique against Bayer Leverkusen. They didn't stand a chance.

9. Michael Owen Against Argentina, 1998

A teenaged Owen on behalf of England, making world-class footballers look like amateurs.

8. Zola v Norwich

This video shows that a well timed tap is all it takes when Gianfranco Zola scores off a corner against Norwich City

7. Bergkamp v Argentina

Bergkamp takes Holland through to the semi-finals with his quick wits and quicker feet.

6. David Beckham Halfway Line Goal

Love him or hate him, you can't deny the sheer skill this man demonstrates every once in a while. The famous goal from the half way line!

5. Andreas Vasquez

Peruvian Andreas Vasquez launching the ball from the edge of the penalty area leaving defenders nothing to do but look on in awe.

4. Van Basten, 1988

Marco Van Basten against the USSR making it all look too easy.

3. Messi v Getafe

Do we have a cracker for you. Lionel Messi showing how it is done in this goal for FC Barcelona.

2. Diego Maradona, 1986 against England

One of the worlds finest football players, doing what he did best. Forget the infamous "hand of god" moment, this was Maradona's finest hour right here. A marathon run of epic proportions. This is why Maradona should be in the history books along with the greatest players of all time.

1. Carlos Alberto, 1970

Finally, what you have been waiting for. At number 1. Alberto scoring the best goal of all time?

Disagree?

Think you know of a worthy goal that we missed, a better goal for number 1? Think we don't know our football from a f@ckup? Let us know!

I would have definitely gone for Gazza's goal against Scotland in Euro 96, so amazing. Additionally, I would have stuck Ginola's beaut for Newcastle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwy_MrjR3R8) Annnnd Trevor Sinclairs overhead kick for QPR - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2KeX7nhZRY
