Best Tackles

[devilsadvocate]

Checking out some Youtube clips, I thought I'd post a couple of cracking tackles:

Ole Gunnar Solskaer tackle against the Geordies. He obviously knew he'd be sent off, but with the score at 1-1 in a game that Utd had to win to remain in touch with the League leaders, Ole Gunnar pulls this one:

Further to the Rooney love in another thread, this tackle on Stevie G is outstanding:

Ronaldo getting hacked:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IG-yBXUWZ4&NR=1 - Look at Fergie whinge.

Some crackers from the 2006 world cup Holland v Portugal: There's more diving than in the Olympics and more rolling on the ground than in a school playground:

Bit of a compilation with some very dirty stuff, some horrid breaks and some funny fights - look for Maradona's repeated fly kicks - dirty twat:

Finally, this perhaps belongs in a 'Diving' thread, but here goes:

haha Not sure if "Best Tackles" is the appropriate heading...

This link shows the history between Roy Keane & Alf Inge Haaland. First tackle snaps Roy's ACL and Haaland lets him know about it. A few years later and Keane extracts his revenge ending Haalands career....

Depends which side your on, I didn't see Hurst say no I didnt score that goal in the world cup also every team in the world has won a game on a dodgey call at least once and by hook or by crook. A win is a win
