The past weekend has become a historic one for all European football. Stoke City goalkeeper Asmir Begovich managed to score a goal in the first minute. We decided to recall the most famous goaltenders and scorers.
Stoke City's Bosnian gatekeeper Asmir Begovic scored against Southampton 12 seconds into the game. Begovich knocked out of his goal, and the ball, flying over Artur Boruts, ended up in the net. This was a good reason to remember the prominent representatives of a separate football caste - goaltenders and scorers. These guys are cramped in the cages of their own gates. Therefore, they regularly terrorize fellow opponents. And they gain fame thanks to goals, and not at all as high-quality reliable goalkeepers.
Pioneers of the genre
Rene Higuita and Jorge Campos. Latin Americans, who stood at the origins of active goalkeeper bombardment. The whole world knows Igitu thanks to the "scorpion strike". Campos regularly ran in the field and asked FIFA to grant him "goalkeeper-chase" status. And he also surprised everyone with his form of parrot coloring. For two, these reckless adventurer keepers have scored about eighty goals in official meetings. Unfortunately, only a small part of them are available on the Internet. At that time, not every match between the Colombian and Mexican championships was recorded on video. But you can still get an idea of the adventures of Rene and Jorge.
The best of the best
Rogerio Ceni and Jose Luis Chilavert. Legendary goalkeepers who received this status not at all because of their outstanding play in the “frame”. These are the best goalkeeper snipers in the history of world football. Chilavert began to grieve colleagues back in the eighties. In an interview, he admitted that from childhood he had a tightly delivered blow. His father always advised taking advantage of this advantage. Chilavert obeyed his parent, and away we go. The Paraguayan began to take free kicks and penalties. The partners initially objected, but then resigned themselves. Playing for Velez Sarsfield, Chila has 48 goals. In total during his career, he distinguished himself 62 times, and eight times in the national team matches. But at the World Cup he did not manage to score.
Chilavert has long remained the most productive goalkeeper on the planet. But the Brazilian Rogerio Ceni eventually surpassed him. Now the 40-year-old Rogerio has 113 goals. And he does not intend to dwell on this figure! Seni spent his entire career in only one club - “Sao Paulo”. And it is not for nothing that it is considered its symbol. Once he set himself a goal - to become the best sniper gloved. And he got it. Last summer, Seni scored the hundredth goal in his career. Meticulous statistics began to cry: he scored some of the goals in unofficial friendly matches. But this is not so important. The fights took place not on the beaches of Copacabana, but on normal fields. They were held according to the rules of football, spectators, journalists and referees were present. So the claims are irrelevant.
Little-known goal scorers
Bulgarian Dimitar Ivankov recently retired. For a long time he defended Levski's colors. On his account - 37 goals from free kicks and penalties. This is the sixth result in the world. Ivankov spent more than 50 matches for the Bulgarian national team, but could not score on this one. Yugoslav Dragan Pantelic retired in the mid-80s. He has 22 goals, almost all from the penalty spot. He also excelled in the matches for the national team. Only ardent fans of Latin American football know who Johnny Vegas and Alvaro Alfaro are. Meanwhile, these guys are among the top ten goalkeeping snipers in history. But they scored in not the strongest championships of Peru and El Salvador.
Top 10 Goalkeeper-Scorers in History:
1.Rogerio Seni (Brazil) - 113 goals.
2. Jose Luis Chilavert (Paraguay) - 62 goals.
3.Rene Higuita (Colombia) - 41 goals.
4. Johnny Vegas (Peru) - 39 goals.
5. Jorge Campos (Mexico) - 38 goals.
6.Dimitar Ivankov (Bulgaria) - 37 goals.
7.Hans-Jörg Butt (Germany) - 33 goals.
8.Alvaro Alfaro (El Salvador) - 31 goals.
9. Dragan Pantelic (Yugoslavia) - 22 goals.
10. Vincent Enyama (Nigeria) - 21 goals.
P.S. Many, but not all, are familiar with the fact that in the debut match for Moscow “Dynamo” the great Lev Yashin missed from his colleague in line. It happened in the spring of 1950 in the Caucasus in a sparring with the "Tractor" from Stalingrad.
P.P.S. In the once popular Soviet film "Goalkeeper", which is based on the story of Lev Kassil, a Hollywood pretentious ending: "the goalkeeper of the republic" Anton Kandidov on last minute of the match of the USSR national team with a foreign team, he takes a penalty, then throws the ball on his move, runs and scores the decisive goal.
Wackiest own goal of the year (from the center of the field!) And a goalkeeper's goal - in 3 minutes (video)
There is a lot of crazy going on in the U20 World Cup: the Chelsea defender scored against the Manchester United goalkeeper even though they played on the same England squad.There is a lot of crazy going on in the U20 World Cup: the Chelsea defender scored against the Manchester United goalkeeper even though they played on the same England squad. And the goalkeeper from Venezuela distinguished himself and did everything right.
Own goal from center field
England played second leg group stage against Guinea. More than half the English did not manage to score, but then there were two goals in a row: Lewis Cook's goal on the 53rd was a stranger, he was glad. And on the 59th defender Fikayo Tomori with goalkeeper Dean Henderson, they did a good job.
The field player, when the Guineans did not really press him - the screenshot shows that the near player stopped, and the far player ran in the other direction - decided to strongly pass the goalkeeper.
The England goalkeeper was outside the box, he could not play with his hands, and he could not reach the ball with his foot.
So Guinea leveled the score, and England could not score more.
Own goal - from 1:22.
Goalkeeper Dean Henderson is owned by Manchester United but hasn't played for the main team yet. He was only recalled from loan in February 2016: he played for the Stockport County team in the sixth league, and because of the injuries of David de Gea and Sam Johnston, Manchester United were in a tense situation with goalkeepers. In the end, we managed without Henderson, he spent the 2016/17 season higher - he played seven games in the fourth league for Grimsby Town.
Fikayo Tomori's story is even more curious: he even played in the Premier League for Chelsea, to which he belongs. At the end of the 2015/16 season, Tomori came on as a substitute for Branislav Ivanovic for half an hour against Leicester. A guy with a full name who can kill - Oluwaficayomi Oluvadamilola - performed last season in the "Brighton", released in the Premier League. It's easy to guess the African origin in the name: Tomori has Nigerian roots, and he was born in Canada, and even played one match for the national U-20 team of this country in 2016. But then he was called to the England national team, and he switched to playing for the national team of the country in which he now lives.
An important story happened with Tomori in the first match of the World Cup against Argentina: he was hit by Argentinian Lautaro Martinez, but the referees on the field did not notice the episode. And the video assistant - FIFA is testing them at this tournament - reconsidered the moment and suggested to the referee that Martinez should be removed for a foul on Tomori.
Goalkeeper goal
The match was different, but it was exactly the same time: the matches of the world championship in South Korea are held in parallel, in another group, simultaneously with the England - Guinea game, the Venezuela - Vanuatu meeting began. The presence of an island nation from Oceania at the World Cup could be considered strange, but the Vanuatu national team in the first round three days before, until the 90th minute, had played in a draw with Mexico and lost 2: 3 only in the very end. By the way, that match was judged by our Sergey Karasev.
The match with the Venezuelan national team in Vanuatu turned out much worse: the islanders held out for half an hour, and then the Venezuelans began to score - in the end 0: 7.
The most interesting of these seven is the fourth, scored from the penalty spot by Venezuelan goalkeeper Vuilker Farinjez.
Goalkeeper goal - from 0:54
Taking into account the simultaneous start of matches, the goal of the Venezuelan goalkeeper in the 56th minute and the own goal of the British occurred at the World Cup with a difference of only three minutes.

Perhaps sports and records are concepts that are quite similar in meaning and often overlap with each other. Therefore, sports guys from stadiums and gyms... Not all truly great results are recorded in the Guinness Book of Records. Some record holders (for example) have to wait a long time for the representatives of the directory to check and put their achievements on the list of the greatest.
We have compiled ten amazing official records that prove we are not alone on the list of football record holders.
Just Fontaine
The largest number goals scored at one world championship
Today's football is still less sharp and effective than half a century ago, and therefore Just Fontaine's record will probably last for a very long time. The striker of the French "Reims" securely stamped his name on the pages of the Guinness Book of Records in 1958. However, just as he scored his 13 goals into the opponents' goal. Amazing fact: Fontaine "shipped" the legendary damn dozen, playing in other people's boots. Just Fontaine's own were stolen.
Hakan Shukur
Most quick goal at the world championships
The experienced Turkish goal scorer was partly helped by an opponent to set a record at the 2002 World Cup: the South Korean national team in the match with Turkey immediately dragged the ball to their half of the field. The unhappy defender did not have time to pass the pass to the goalkeeper when Shukur, like a Turkish falcon, burst in and literally pecked the ball out of the Korean's feet. When the ball crossed the goal line, the referee's stopwatch stopped at 10.8 seconds.
Ryan Giggs
THE ONLY FOOTBALL PLAYER ON THE FIELD
IN EVERY BRITISH PREMIER LEAGUE SEASON
In the latest edition of the Guinness Book of World Records, the former Manchester United striker has been featured four times! Legendary Ryan Giggs, first, became the only footballer to play in every season English Premier League... That is, Ryan did not miss a single season from 1992 to 2014, scoring in each of them. In addition, there is no footballer who has played more often than Giggs and that Premier League champion who can match his titles with 13 gold medals of the Welsh.
Mauricio Baldivieso
Youngest professional footballer
At the end of the Bolivian championship match between Aurora and La Paz, Aurora's coach Julio Cesar, put in a critical position by injured forwards, released his 12-year-old son Mauricio onto the field. The young striker managed to touch the ball three times, and at the end of the match he even earned a free kick for the team. It is known that defender Romulo Alacu, who cut down the boy, was booed by the stadium. And the guy made the youngest debut - on the day of the match he was 12 years old and 362 days old.
Paolo Maldini
The most experienced captain in the Champions League
The representative of the legendary football dynasty Maldini in February 2008 set a special, honorable record. The great Paolo was the captain of Milan against Arsenal. Representatives of the Guinness Book of Records scrupulously calculated that when Maldini stood with the team to the solemn sounds of the Champions League anthem, he turned 39 years and 239 days.
Pele
player with the most goals in his career
One of best footballers in the history of world football, of course, could not pass by this list. It is difficult to calculate exactly, but during his career, the Brazilian has scored about 1200 goals and more, with 77 in the national team.
Franz Beckenbauer
First person to win the World Cup
as team captain and coach
The legendary German defender in 1974 made a "golden double" with the Bundesteam, winning the gold of the World Championship, and two years later - lifting the European Cup over his head. Who knew that Beckenbauer's career would have at least one more such double. In 1990, Kaiser Franz, as the name of the player and coach for merit and greatness, won the World Cup as coach of the German national team.
Cristiano Ronaldo
The most expensive footballer in the world
The fact that the great Portuguese will move from Manchester United to Real Madrid has been clear for a long time. Before the summer of 2009, there were only two questions - when and for how much. On July 1, a new record holder appeared on the transfer market, surpassing Zinedine Zidane. For Cristiano Ronaldo, the Spanish club paid 94 million euros, also securing an amount of 1 billion euros for the Portuguese as compensation. More recently, Cristiano broke another record that every blogger will envy. Ronaldo has become the most popular athlete on Twitter - on
The young guy Rogerio Ceni, it seemed, was destined to become a striker. Tall, athletic, with powerful blow and a great vision of the field, he would be the decoration of the attack line of any team in the country. But the card went so bad that the boy, who was taking his first steps in football, made a firm decision to become a goalkeeper.
As a result, it was this decision that brought him world fame, inscribing the name Rogerio in the history of football in gold letters. It is unlikely that in the near future anyone will be able to even come close to his mind-blowing record - 131 goals over more than 20 years of his career.
If you think that we are talking about conceded goals, as is usually the case with goalkeepers, you are deeply mistaken. Rogerio Ceni is the best goaltender among goalkeepers in the entire history of football, having scored more goals than many strikers can do - 131 goals.
Seni: the beginning
And this legend began with the fact that on January 22, 1973, in the small Brazilian town of Patu Branco, a boy was born, whom his parents named Rogerio Mouque Ceni.
The boy grew up and, like almost any Brazilian boy, fell more and more in love with football. From the age of 10-11, it became clear that the passion for the most popular game in the world will not just go away, and Rogerio's abilities may well allow him to become a professional footballer.
For the first time he entered the field in an official meeting as part of the modest team "Sinop" from the city of the same name. But at that time he was not a professional footballer, being considered a junior. Then, in 1987, the boy was only 15 years old.
In 1990, 17-year-old goalkeeper Rogerio Ceni attracted the attention of the eminent São Paulo club, of which he soon became. At first, his bombing abilities were manifested exclusively in training, where, knowing about his skills, he often took part in informal competitions, which were organized by football players among themselves.
For the first six years, he was first the third goalkeeper of the team, soon becoming the second, occasionally appearing on the field if the main guardian of the goal was injured. For the first time on the field in the starting lineup of the professional club, Seni entered the field on June 25, 1995, more than 22 years ago. His team played against the Tenerife club in a friendly tournament. That game ended with the victory of "Sao Paulo" with a score of 4: 1. In the same year, Seni went to the site several times, invariably bringing good luck to his partners.
Soon the coach began to notice that the goalkeeper has an amazing shot and is able to score in training not only from the 11-meter mark, but also from outside the penalty area, from set pieces. From that moment on, the goalkeeper began to hone this skill of his purposefully. When his blows reached a certain level, the coach decided to test them in official match... It turned out well. Since then, off we go.
Most bright moments performances
In the June 2005 Copa Libertadores match against the Mexican side Tigres, Seni nearly scored a hat-trick. Rogerio twice managed to send the ball into the net from the free kicks, but the crossbar deflected the kick from the penalty spot.
On July 28, 2005, against Atletico Paranaense, he played his 618 matches in the Sao Paulo shirt, becoming the record holder for the number of games in this club. In connection with this event, he was sewn a special game sweater with the number "618" on the back.
Lightning-fast reaction, confident and reliable play within the goal frame at the FIFA Club World Cup tournament (December 2005, Japan) received the highest marks from experts, the press, and fans. In the semifinals of the tournament against Al-Ittihad, he scored winning goal from the penalty spot, and a little earlier he performed a superb free kick, which almost flew into the goal. In the final of the tournament, Sao Paulo defeated English Liverpool 1-0, Seni was named player of the final and received the golden ball of the best player of the tournament.
Rogerio-Ceni_62005 turned out to be the most productive year for Rogerio Ceni - he managed to hit the opponents' goal 21 times, which made him top scorer home club. Any striker could be proud of this figure!
After the 2005 triumph, Sao Paulo dominated the Brazilian Championship for 3 years, becoming champions in 2006, 2007 and 2008 three times in a row. The team has established itself as the flagship of progress and stability in the rather chaotic national championship. Sao Paulo became the only Brazilian club to win the national championship three years in a row. Accordingly, Rogerio, a rare example of loyalty to his club in the top Brazilian division (Serie A), raised all these trophies.
On July 25, 2006, he converted a penalty kick against Mexican Chivas, becoming Sao Paulo's most scoring Copa Libertadores player in the club's history.
On August 21, 2006, Rogerio scored a double against the leader brazilian football Cruzeiro, scoring his 41st free kick and 23rd from the penalty spot. Seni not only converted a penalty kick and a free kick, but also deflected an own 11-meter kick, thanks to which his team managed to draw 2-2. The goalkeeper who scored a double in the game! Think about this every time your team's striker is in the penalty area and shoots at the sparrows. With two goals, he surpassed legendary Paraguayan goalkeeper Jose Luis Chilavert's 62 goals. The double against Cruzeiro was the fourth of his career, the previous two goals in the same match were scored against Internacional Limeira (1999), Figueirense (2004) and Tigres (2005).
"As a goalkeeper, I have scored more than 63 goals. I never imagined that I could ever reach this mark. It will remain in history, and I am very happy for my club," said Rogerio Ceni after the match. Continuing, the Brazilian goalkeeper-goleodor paid tribute to his mentor, one of the best trainers Brazil's Murisi Ramallo, who coached the team when Rogerio first started showing success in his club's first squad in 1997; “What makes me especially happy is that I scored my 63rd goal when Murisi was in charge. He was the first coach to entrust me with free kicks. I am happy that working with him made me the goalkeeper with the most goals. in history".
Black stripe in the quarry
In the life of every great football player, there is a black streak in his career. Football fans are well aware of the trick called "Kung Fu Cantona", Zidane's head blow, Maradona's "hand of God" ... For Rogerio, such a moment came in 2001, when he was suspended from games for 29 days by club president Paulo Amarala after accusations of making false documents for the transfer to the London Arsenal as an argument for increasing the player's salary. This unpleasant situation almost ended with the transfer of Rogerio to another titled Brazilian club Cruzeiro. Only the departure of Amaral, whom he replaced new president Club Marcelo Portuguese Govea, allowed Ceni to renew his contract with Tricolor (nickname of the club Sao Paulo). "I still have a feeling of resentment about the way Amaral treated me," Rogerio said recently, "... I would tell the whole story if I could, but it's better for me to be silent."
Records out of spite
Nobody remembers the first goal of Rogerio Ceni, including the footballer himself, it was so long ago. But the Internet is filled with collections of it best strikes, the number of which will be the envy of most strikers and "hammering" midfielders.
In total, Senya's collection contains several records included in the famous "Guinness Book of Records". Naturally, he is the most "hammering" goalkeeper in the history of football. On his account, as we have already mentioned, 131 goals scored from the penalty spot and free kicks. His closest rival, no less legendary Paraguayan goalkeeper Jose Luis Chilavert, who retired long ago, has “only” 66 goals.
In addition, Seni is in the Guinness Book of Records as the person with the most matches in one form. football club, as well as the largest number of matches in a team as captain. In total, Seni has appeared on the pitch in 1256 games during his career with Sao Paulo and the Brazilian national team. And just over a year ago, Rogerio Ceni also broke the Welsh Ryan Giggs' record for the number of victories with one club, once again writing his name down in history.
Usually people who install such unusual records, they are not distinguished by anything outstanding in terms of their direct duties. But this does not apply to Rogerio Ceni, who, in addition to his bombing abilities, was also great goalkeeper... If he has a room of sports glory, and such a person must have it, then all the trophies that he can win in his career are stored in it. Brazilian footballer not playing for European teams.
These are the Brazilian championships, the Libertadores cups, and the South American cups. Rogerio Seni was even the world champion with the Brazilian national team in 2002, when the World Cup was held in Japan and South Korea. In addition, in 2005 Rogerio Ceni became the world champion at the club level. Then his team met in the final meeting with the English "Liverpool", previously won the Champions League. Rogerio Ceni in decisive meeting with the most titled club in England, he kept his goal intact. "Sao Paulo" then won with a score of 1: 0, and the goalkeeper was recognized not only best player the final meeting, but also the most useful footballer of the entire tournament.
Forwards to envy
Everyone probably understands that 131 goals against the opponent is a lot if you are a goalkeeper. But how good is this, say, for a striker?
It's easy to compare. It will be most interesting to do this, taking as a basis the list of the best domestic scorers of all time, which is headed by the striker of St. Petersburg "Zenith" Alexander Kerzhakov. He has 224 goals, which he scored into the opponent's goal in all official tournaments in which his club or national team took part.
And at the end of last year, Goalkeeper-scorer Rogerio Ceni retired. On the night of December 6-7, the legendary goalkeeper officially said goodbye to football. In such cases, the attackers are said to have “put the boots on the nail”, the goalkeepers “hang on the nails” the gloves. In this case, both will hang on the wall of honor of Seni.
And more news. Before the upcoming 2016 America's Cup anniversary drawing coaching staff the Brazilian national team decided to undergo changes. For example, the legendary goalkeeper of “Sao Paulo” and the Brazilian national team Rogerio Seni became the new assistant to head coach Carlos Dunga.

The main goal of a goalkeeper in football is to defend his own goal. The goalkeepers spend most of the match in their own penalty area, but there are also those goalkeepers who like to visit half of the opponent's field in order to distinguish themselves with a goal. There are few such goalkeepers, but they exist, and some of them managed to score more in their careers than midfielders and even forwards. Today we take a look at the goals scored by goalkeepers, as well as find out who is the best goaltender-scorer in the history of football.
Rogerio Ceni is the best goaltender in football history
Rogerio Mouque Ceni spent most of his career at São Paulo, Brazil. This goalkeeper knew how to skillfully execute free kicks, and also flawlessly punched 11-meter kicks. During his long career, Seni managed to score 131 goals. At the end of his career, FIFA recognized Rogerio Ceni as the best goalkeeper with the most goals in football history. Despite his scoring ability, the São Paulo goalkeeper did not manage to become No. 1 for the Brazilian national team due to high competition. But still, Seni sometimes got into the application, and in 2002 he managed to become the world champion in the Brazilian national team.
Rogerio Ceni has become a true legend for São Paulo. When he scored a goal, his team never left the field as a loser. That is why Seni became the mascot of the Brazilian club.
Rogerio Ceni is an amazing goalkeeper with excellent striker makings. For many forwards, scoring 131 goals like the Brazilian did is an unattainable goal. If we compare Seni in terms of the number of goals scored with the famous Russian striker Andrei Arshavin, an interesting picture emerges. It turns out that Rogerio Ceni scored more than Arshavin. The Brazilian has 131 goals in his entire career, and the Russian has 130 (as of 05/23/2017). This is the kind of goalkeeper-scorer from Brazil.
Jose Luis Chilavert - Penalty Master
Goalkeeper of the Paraguay national team, who participated in two world championships in 1998 and 2002. In addition to the skills of the goalkeeper, Chilavert also made good free kicks and penalties. During his career, he managed to score 62 goals, and for a long time remained the goalkeeper who scored the most goals in football until Rogerio Ceni surpassed him in this indicator. Paraguayan Jose Chilavert holds two records: he holds the record for the number of goals scored for the national team (8 goals), as well as the only goalkeeper in football history who managed to score a hat-trick in one match.
Dimitar Ivankov is the third goalkeeper-scorer in football history
Playing for Levski, Kayzerispor and Bursaspor, Dimitar Ivankov did not like to sit out in his own penalty area. He often helped his attacking partners and often scored goals. In total, the Bulgarian scored 43 goals in his career, thus becoming the third goaltender-scorer in football history.
Today you learned that Rogerio Ceni is the goalkeeper with the most goals in the history of football. This Brazilian has proved to the whole world that even as a goalkeeper, you can score more goals than some strikers do in their entire career. You also learned about Luis Chilavert and Dimitar Ivankov, who occupy the second and third positions respectively in the list of the best goalkeepers and scorers.
