Top Ten Bicycle Kicks Of All Time

This one goes out to my boy Ranjeet Sahni. So I’m pretty sure everyone saw Zlatan’s bicycle kick against England a couple of weeks ago because it was fvcking phenomenal and even American baseball sites were posting about it and everyone wa suddenly talking about how completely sick Zlatan and always has been even though most people have been slagging him off for being slow/selfish and ‘unable to do it against English teams’ for the past ten years. He sure showed us huh? Then this week Philippe Mexes scored an absolutely sick bicycle kick for AC Milan in their Champions League match against Anderlecht and this inspired the guys over at 101greatgoals.com to make a list of the top ten bicycle kicks of all time, which I have promptly nabbed and put up on Sick Chirpse. Here they are, the top 10 bicycle kicks of all time. There are a couple of extra bonus ones at the start too that are little known bicycle kicks that are also completely sick. These aren’t in any order of quality either – just chronological order -either because it’s just way too hard to pick an order for them when they’re so sick, but I’ll discuss them at the end and tell you which one I think is the best because I know you’re all dying to hear my opinion on it. Some of these I had never seen before and they’re absolutely boss so it’s definitely worth watching them all. First, the bonus ones.

Widodo C Putro (Indonesia) v Kuwait, 1996 (Real shit quality but it’s cool how he lands on his butt and does a sick celebration afterwards)
