BEST HEADERS COMPILATION feat. Ronaldo, Klose, Crouch | 2006 World Cup
2006 World Cup header compilation: Crouch, Klose and more
The video runs through a series of key headed goals from the 2006 World Cup, taking in England, Italy, France, Portugal and others. The commentary assesses the quality of the finishes, the teams' performances and the way the matches were turning, with the overall takeaway that delivery and movement in the box decided most of these headers.
- Gilardino's diving header was superb; the USA keeper was completely exposed by the quality of the free kick, and there was no offside. — The free kick was delivered well and Gilardino attacked it unmarked with a diving header, leaving the keeper helpless.
- Shevchenko's goal all but made certain of Ukraine's victory. — Just 40 seconds into the second half, Ukraine scored again and Shevchenko took his chance.
- Ivory Coast deserved their second goal, and Aruna Dindane's header made it game on again. — They kept attacking and finally got their reward, with Dindane glancing in a header that the keeper could not keep out.
- That goal may have ended Angola's hopes of progressing, while finally giving Iran something to cheer. — It came late, after Angola had held on for a while, but Iran pulled one back.
- Spain may be writing another sad chapter in their failure to do well at major tournaments. — Spain were all over the place, and a stupid foul on Thierry Henry gave France the chance that Vieira may have punished.
- Italy were on their way to playing Germany after going two goals up, and their belief was growing. — Totti's cross created the chance, an Italy forward attacked it, and although Cannavaro did not get a touch, Italy's top scorer did not miss.
- Portugal's efforts in that half deserved a goal, and the 3-1 scoreline was one many had predicted. — Portugal kept pressing, Figo curled in a fine cross, and Nuno Gomes headed past Kahn, who could do little about it.
- Materazzi's header had great power and a fine leap, but the delivery made the goal. — Materazzi attacked it powerfully, and Vieira did his best but could not climb high enough to challenge.

This is a good spell for Ecuador. It's Dela Cruz flips on dangerously. It's a very good spell for Ecuador. Carlos Denario with that deaf header gives Ecuador the lead. Dela Cruz with his long throw and the PS never got to terms with either Delgado who flicked it on or Carlos Tanario talent and same could be said of this man who's been in great form in the buildup in the preliminary games. England won 6-0 a week ago against Jamaica. Beckham created a couple of goals and here they've gone again. England have the lead. Michael may have got the final touch, but again it's a Beckham delivery that opens the way for England to score. And this may well be a Beckham goal on his N. Oh no, it's off a Paraguayan head I think there. Just the flick of the Paraguayan head and the ball is going beyond VA the goalkeeper. England won Paraguay nil. Fabulki riggera ka. What a start for the Czech Republic. Griger's [cheering] probing cross right onto the head of Yanola. And one of the tallest players in European football does what he does west. Frigera looked up couldn't fail to spot Yan Kol. And Yanola couldn't fail to pick out the goal with his head. First real chance for save and they follow it up with a goal. Well worked corner kick. Touched in at the near post. It's taken a long time for them to get here, but only 13 minutes to get on the score sheet. Spain have the lead. Chunisia, mind you, have not been bad at all today. And they look for an equalizer of their own now. Danger two in there. It might even be more than danger. It could be an equalizer if they can get this right. It is radi from both wanderers in England. Steals into the sixyd area and Chunisia get their just desserts. It looked like Samuel Jaba had got a winner. It wasn't to be unless he comes again of course because Rani Ji has thumped a header into the back of the Saudi net. And the score line tells you what a terrific match this has been. Superbly contested. And if it ends this way, it will be the right result. It's a mistake. It's been seized upon here by Ecuador. Belg nicely worked out and Ecuador score. Carlos Tinorio with a goal. His second in the tournament. And Ecuador's second participation in the World Cup finals is getting better and better and better. And how well they worked it. Excellent play initially by Delgado and when the cross was fired in, Carlos Tenorio stole in ahead of Sera and buried his header. Lennon cushioned header to pick out Beckham in towards Crouch. Peter Crouch breaks the deadlock. His first goal of the World Cup finals. England's first goal of Germany 2006 from their own player. Give it to the big man. There's the architect of the goal, David Beckham. Beckham's cross plum onto the head of Peter Crouch. And for once, he eluded Lawrence. It was scratched against Sancho and he towed above him. Sancho would have needed a step ladder to get up there. [cheering] Hold back. Here's the chance. And here's the goal. Finally. Finally, Lunberg scores. And Sweden's World Cup hopes are suddenly lifted. Paraguay are flattened for once. Badilla couldn't keep them out. And with less than two minutes of the 19 remaining, Sweden get their first goal of these finals, Freddy Lungber. Right place, right time. Finally going in the right direction here. And he'll try and curl it away from the keeper. Brilliant goal. Italy [cheering] lead here. And Alberto Gillardino does what he couldn't do in the Champions League. He flies in with a header. It's his first World Cup goal for his country. It's Italy won USA nil. And what Arena feared most has happened in Kaiser Slampton. Team America is a goal down again. Kell was left totally exposed by the quality of the po free kick. No offside and Gillardino dives in to score magnificently with a swooping header and it'll be a free kick as well right at the start of this second half. It was an early goal in the first. Kinienko was a provider and here he is providing again and Shenenko gets the third of the afternoon. Barely 40 seconds of the second half play. And Andre Chevchenko surely makes absolutely certain that this is going to be a victory for Ukraine. So the man who earned the corner will take it now. Krishnovic and the header is in. Second goal for Boratski. [cheering] Now don't do anything in a quiet way will you? Never scored before for his country prior to today. And now two in the World Cup finals in the one match. Bartosh Boratski. No wonder he wears a broader smile in hand over [cheering] Krishna's flighted corner and a convincing header. They have been goal shy at these championships. Just one so far. But there's number two. They're level. [cheering] Oh, back on target. It's 1-1. [cheering] >> [cheering] >> Nobody picked up all back here. [cheering] Nobody could keep out his goal header. Gerard was almost there. Joe Cole flicks it in. Gerard scores again for England. His second successive game. Fantastic cross by Joe Cole. And there was Steven Gerard to claim his second World Cup goal in Germany. In fact, the goal Paraguay conceded against England was from this sort of area. They may concede again. Paraguay have got their first goal of the World Cup finals and it may well be an own goal. I think the ball may have floated off Brent Sancho, but how similar it was to the Beckham delivery in the sixth minute of the England Paraguay game, but this time it's Paraguay who claim the goal and have the lead. I think we'll see from this delivery that the final touch is there from Sancho. It certainly is. Chia again. They've got it. They've got their second goal. And how much they deserve it. And Aruna Dindel has a double. Seconds within the arrival of Milosic. It's a striker at the other end of the field who makes his mark. And how the Ivorians celebrate. It's the first time they've got a double. Oh, that's the way to do it. Dier's joining in as well. They'll call it a drogbar or they'll call it a dindan. They got a drink called a drogbar in the Ivory Coast. And Aruna Dindan's glancing little header. It's too good for Yic. And it's game on here. Really is. [cheering] Takes it flicked on. Inflicted second. It's Mexican B. Lovely flick there by Feka for the Rena. Zango with his pace once more. Flavio's in the middle. It's Flavio. It's aimed for. And it's Flavio who scores. It's their first ever World Cup finals goal. And who knows? Who knows? Is this the cue for a quite sensational story to unravel here in Leipzig? Cool in the shadows. Oh, and it's a heartbreaker. Back to Rosane has turned it in. And maybe with the goal, Angola's chances of progressing have disappeared. It was good while it lasted, but back to Lazare has finally given Iran something to cheer. The Roma legend Totty will take this. He's only been on from the bench for a matter of moments. And Marco Matarazzi, his first ever Italian goal. And what a stage to score it. It has flattened Brookner. Marco Matarazzi would never have expected to be involved here today. It was only the injury to Netor that saw him brought onto the field, but it was a great finish here. Leaping with super power and Czech unable to keep it out. Heat. Heat. Heat up free kick. A header. Goal Switzerland. Phillip Sanderos. Bloody Deay. What a goal scorer and a very happy one at that. And the young man who plays his football in the English Premiership with Arsenal scores his third goal for his country to send in. And it's not a bad one. Oh, what a classic goal. That's an absolutely top draw. Magnificent header from Vanito. Spain have the lead. Saudi Arabia have problems. Lovely, lovely delivery and even Marade on the back of two excellent stops was helpless to prevent Guanito scoring for Spain here. The 29year-old from Kadis who netted a goal in a victory against Kivoir back in March puts a thumping header wide of the Saudi keeper. The French have plenty forward as Zidane takes it. is away and Patrick Vieiraa may have won the match for France. The Spanish were all over the place and Pu's stupid mistake in fouling Thierry. Well, he no need to do may have been punished by the French and maybe Spain are writing yet another sad chapter in their failure to do well in major tournaments. Vieier scores for the second game running. Rickme with a corner. over Saw a free Henrikson in it's Ayala and Argentina have the lead is furious with either himself or his defenders and Argentina perhaps can set the semiinals of the World Cup. Roberto Ayala who's played more than 100 times his country. He's only ever scored six goals prior to today. How important a goal will that be? Malak chips on here. The level mirror closer rescues Germany. It's 1-1. He's not scored aheaded goal for Germany for three years. He has now clearly on side. He is a leading goal scorer of the World Cup finals. Barski flicked it on towards closer. Doy now. Useful ball in. They've got their second [cheering] and Lucaton has plundered his first World Cup goal. They're on their way to play Germany now. You would feel Canavaro didn't get a touch. Lucatona, the man who got 37 yard goals last season for Fentina, has come diving in here to send Italy soaring into a twogoal lead. And the Italian belief is growing and growing. It was Totty's cross missed by Canavaro, not missed by Italy's number one goal scorer. [cheering] Portugal do deserve a goal for their efforts in this half. And Figo fires the ball in and they do have a goal. Lovely, lovely header from Nuno Gomez has stunned the German public here. It's belated consolation for Scolari and a lovely goal for Nola Gome's 24th for Portugal. Yeah, they're happy about that. And the 3-1 score line was something many of us predicted and that's what we've got at the moment. And it's a Lewis Figel cross as well. a beauty curling onto his head and Kahn for all his efforts has been beaten on the night. He'll be mortified by that. But just with all the other goals this evening, there was nothing much the goalkeeper could do about it. Corner Italy trailed by a goal and they're level. It's [cheering] tied. It's the big brother from the back Matari who does to France what he did to the Czech Republic. He [cheering] climbs into the set piece and a thumping header from the center backi has brought it to right back into this game and nothing was going to stop this one. Well, it was a powerful header, wasn't it? What a great climb, but the delivery made it. [cheering] Po, we had already spoken about his delivery and great power from Matarazzi. Patrick Vieira doing his best to get a challenge on it. couldn't climb hard high enough and the big Italian central defender with a powerful header.
