I don't understand why people don't include him in the conversation as the greatest of all time. I know he wasn't an out and out goal scorer but for me he is in the GOAT conversation.

The fact Casameiro said when Zidane was coach, and he would train with the team, he was the best player out there says enough... legend

Zizou? One of the greatest of all times. Effective and elegant. My favorite player ever.

I’m 38 and loved football ever since I could open my eyes …. Still the best I’ve ever seen .. Zidane is still king 👑

I love these kinds of highlights without music and cheap effects. Also as a long time Zidane fan there are many scenes I've never seen. Thank you for this. This is beautiful.

The most underrated of the GOATs. This guy is a genius.

Not only an absolute pillar of my all-time dream team, but also the most classical and elegant footballer ever and the purest definition of a maestro on the pitch. Unreal talent, divine technique, immeasurable intelligence, extraordinary ability to improvise and colossal decision-making power make Zidane a unique and incomparable player. Magician, genius!

Poetry in motion. He wasn’t a footballer, he was an artist 👩‍🎨 ❤ like Shakespeare, Michelangelo or Mozart 💖

Loved the way he controlled the ball with pure smooth feet..his generation was full with great talents.. zidane,figo,ronaldo,ronaldinho n more..

Watching this guy playing put tears in my eyes. Pure Beauty. Zidane was an Artist!

Il a fait du foot, un art. Zidane n’était pas seulement un distributeur, un organisateur, un buteur, mais il donnait plaisir voir jouer: Élégant, souple, fin, tactique. C’est le plus grand maître dans ce domaine...

The most complete player ever. He turned football into an art. He has done it all and won it all as a player, a coach and a family man. Bravo 👏

It's more than elegance. Almost every single time his touch, technique or vision created an advantage or a chance for his team that no ordinary player could. He is my favorite player of all time along with R9 and Maradona.

Out of all the greats, I have never seen a player so calm, not in a hurry but completely outclass with simple moves and out of this world ball control. This is still unique player in the history of the football.

im 40 and have been football fan for a long time and i can assure you Zidane is THE MOST elegant & unique player ever on a football pitch. his moves and tricks are so simple yet elegant and very effective

Hay que vivir en directo las épocas de los jugadores para entender lo que fueron. Zidane fue un mago, sobre todo en sus ultimos años .

His football style was not only genius and precise, it was always beautiful to watch. Its like a form of art. He really dances with the ball and is a faster thinker than any of the opponents. I could watch him play for hours and hours. Absolutely amazing!

Zizou will always be a legend in our hearts and our childhood hero. Watching France 🇫🇷 with Zidane was pure magic.

The way he glides past defenders is unique. He doesn't have the pace but his simple skills that are executed to perfection used to unbalance the defenders and than made it look easy even though he wasn't fast

Zidane - true maestro of football. Magnificent!!! One of the best!!!

As a french guy, one of my best football memory (besides the two world cup victories) was the Brazil - France game in 2006. I've watched this game with my grandpa and we were just shocked at Zidane's skills during this game. Zidane will always be my favorite football player.

The way he controlled games with his touch is unreal. Zidane never did anything unnecessary with the ball. Every touch was measured and executed with efficiency. He was a true midfield commander

Zidane is the greatest and complete player of all time. His ball control is incredible ❤

Such a finesse and elegance to his stride and first touch. Barely ever the loses the ball, knows when to offload, and when to retain. Master of finding the space and the tight gaps. In my humble opinion, he is one of the best midfielders the game has ever seen. In the period of the noughties, from late nighties, there were few that surpassed his brilliance and talent. Zizou

Zidane's game was so elegant that it felt like time slowed down for him when he got even close to the ball. And then every move and every touch was calculated and executed with precision.

An example of a player who fulfilled his potential. A guy that makes you fall in love with the game.

The most complete player ever . Fluid went past players like a stream around a rock. He knew what opponents would do before they did the way he could move the ball between both feet and take it past 3 player within a square metre. Many players have better stats but none had Zidanes pure ability his first touch was second to none how ever he received the ball he would somehow have it under control and ready for next touch. Every other player on their best day still come second to zidane on his best day. Simply sublime football player.

I was few years old when he was in his prime so I don't remeber his era. But when I look at the compilations like that one - wow. I wish I could watch him right now as he looks so unique. His movement - something completely different. He's been moving with such a grace so I cannot even describe it with any words. Pure elegance on the pitch!

He's such a joy to watch

He had an elegance I've never seen before in a footballer. Amazing player.

3:08 is totally an iconic moment. That pass of Beckham! What a delivery! And the Zidane's finish, perfect moment!

fluid football poetry, Zidane was fearless, an artist on the pitch. his tactical awareness IMO is almost unmatched. he knew how to put the players off balance, create space, either run into it or draw the opposition to create that space for team mates. They dont make em like that anymore. Zidane and Gerrard are my two favourite midfielders.

He was the ultimate midfield playmaker maestro. He would "unravel" a very complicated position and release the ball to a team mate in a good position even when you thought it was unlikely. Magnificent player.

Zizou is the epitome of a number 10, favourite player of all time

Nothing he can’t do literally. Dribbling, assisting, scoring, using both feet, heading the ball and free kick master! This is really what is called a COMPLETE PLAYER.

What a work of art. The real Van Gogh of football, alongside Ronaldinho. I could spend hours and hours watching this in slow motion!

He does things that constantly make you go “wtf” and “how”. Absolute wizard and maestro.

The crown jewel when it came down to ball control. Zizou had a wicked first touch, could easily shift in any direction, precise passing, and his IQ on the pitch was immaculate

Et oui zizou !!! Quel régale même après tant d'années de le regarder jouer !

his control of the ball was one of a kind, he always looked like he knew what he was doing 🔥

He was so damn good at giving himself acres of space with a single touch of the ball whenever he was marked in a tight space. So creative and always one step ahead. I miss watching him play

I am fan of Germany, but I have a great admiration for French football. France has an elegant football, it is a joy to watch them.

The very first clip is a work of art. The way he picked the ball from the air to set himself up for the beautiful finish, at the same time sending the defender out of the screen.. Poetry in motion

Zidane was the complete footballer, dribbling, passing, heading, and one of the best free kick takers ever. He didn't hang around the box like a lot of today's players. I've seen a lot of very good players , but for me Zidane had everything.

He was a wizard with the ball, and probably still got it. For me the best player ever.

"The most important thing is to have control of the ball" - Zinedine Zidane

Wow he does things I haven't seen other greats do. Imagine if there were two players on the same team with similar Zidane skills. They'd be able to tear through defenses.

Zizu and Ronaldinho are the definition of football at its finest form.Magicians with class both in and out of the pitch.

He danced with the ball ; has crystal clear tactical view and played for his team to win, never hogging for personal glory. A true class act.

My favourite player of all time ! Long live the GOAT , king Zizou

Zidane qui pouvait faire mal à n'importe qui. Cette conduite de balle et placée les dribbles quant il fallait. Ça a lui était prédestiné et lui appartiendra pour toujours. #LaLégendeZizou👑

Watching him was like listening to Mozart for hours, or standing in front of Rodin's sculptures. What an artist!

His Flow is undeniable unique. He really flies over his Opponents like a Butterfly

He was so calm in possession. I don’t think anyone comes close to him in that aspect of the game. There are better strikers, better passers of the ball, there are faster players, but not a single player on the planet has ever been able to calmly rip holes in defensive lines the way he could.

I have never seen a so beautiful game! Proud of our Zidane ❤️

it's not just the perfect execution that impresses, it's just the winning idea of ​​doing certain things that makes you understand that Zinedune Zidane was just from another planet.

Zizou had such a unique way of manipulating the tempo of play as though the ball was elastic at his feet. He wasn't the fastest, but he would stride with this peculiar air of confidence and elegance. He was a natural leader and playmaker, so when he had the ball you just felt at ease. He was the calm *within* the storm. Very few players in all of football history, let alone the current era, make me feel that way. He was truly special.

A true definition of class midfielder he's football touch and control is crazy so unselfish with insane finishing skills also eagle eye view one of the best midfield maestro for me...viera and zidane on midfield imagine❤❤

GOAT midfielder with no doubt💯💯💯

This video made me so happy for some reason. So much of nostalgia coming through. There hasn’t been players like this. Such elegance, and confidence, so much that watching him as rival fan will make you stand up and clap for him even when watching from your home.

An absolute wizard. His technical prowess and class weren't just for show, his talents had an impact in any game he played and his trophy collection proves it.

One of my favorite players of all time.

I watched all of Zizou's matches with Juve and was happy when he moved to Madrid. He is the legend of football and my favorite player. How beautiful are your days, Zizou

As a Brazilian I can say that we had our share of artists with the ball, but none could match the elegance and grace of Zissou.

Elegance, panache, deadly efficiency, accurate passes, one-touch lay-offs, nasty free kicks, super headers, you name it, Zizou had it in his bag of tricks. One of the best to ever grace the game!

You can tell by the way Zidane moved he could easy take care of himself🤭🔥 For me the best player ever, J'adore💙🔥🇫🇷🔥🇫🇷

He makes the beautiful game joyous to watch, Ballerina that's Zidane in one word

Never does anything unnecessary with the ball, amazing player. One of the best ever.

It was amazing how he could glide past players without using any speed his ball control was unrivalled

He's sort of Ballet, the grace, strength, mixed with future thinking, like a wizard. Such a big dude to be so graceful.

Most elegant player of all time

Just because the kids nowadays didn’t see him think many of the past greats had no value. Thanks for putting this together.

Meilleur joueur de tous les temps pour moi 😍😍😍 il manque beaucoup au football. Vive Zizou 💪💪

People who only start wastching football in Cr-Messi Era have absolutely no idea how GREAT Zidane was. Truly Genius, Pure Baller. For me top 3 GOATS, Messi, Zizou and R9. Aside Pele, CR7. Cruyff and G Best as well. But Zidane was really different.. Most beautiful, Most intelligent and the most important is he is always show up the highest level of the football game. His Leadership. The Great General with most beautiful and pure feet and brain. Truly the GOAT.

生でジダンを3回ほど観たが、エレガント至上最高選手だ。宇宙人クラスだよ。

I am guilty of it myself, but people forget how great Zidane was. This reminded me. What a player.

This is ridiculous, how can anyone be this good? Imagine being blessed with this talent.

He made playing football look effortless. He had sublime skill

Incomparável🔥❤️‍🔥⚽

Football experts said, zinedin Zidane is the most complete player in history of football. I agree with them. The guy has everything that is needed in football. I don't see any weaknesses. Wooow!

The title of this video is exactly what I have told everyone when we talked about the best players. Zidane had an elegance about him that I haven’t seen since. He was cold blooded in every touch.

my son was 7 years old when he saw Zidane played. He didn't know soccer, but he told me that this player is clever. That's Zidane, he's playing so right and so in time, always finding the solution and doing useful things.. yeah more than the beauty, Zidane was really smart on the field...

I’m here from his interview with Messi, no wonder Leo has so much admiration for him, magician!

He had such a magical touch on the ball. Brilliant ball control. It seems so effortless

He’s the most successful person in football history, not only he’s a best player who won many thropies including World Cup, but also won the most prestigious thropy as a manager as well.

People can score, people can dribble, people win titles, but nobody can dance like zidane.

Presencié todos sus partidos en España. Era ver un espectáculo increíble. Ballet con balón sobre un campo de fútbol. Algo nunca visto. El Brasileño Sócrates, tenía algo de esa mágica elegancia. Sorprendente en jugadores tan altos, pero que si lo consiguen, es impresionante.

One word for Zidane..Unrepeatable!! Masterclass

when this guy retired i cried his play was so smooth skilled & beautiful. when this guy touched the ball the time stopped. i ll feel the same when messi will retire. 2 different styles of legend but two humble football gods ! zidane forever in our heart

Notre ZIZOU NATIONAL merci encore et toujours pour ton état d'esprit ta générosité ton amour et surtout cette humilité.

I was a keeper and a defender growing up playing the beautiful game and this man was my idol pure class and a privilege to watch I miss watching players like him Ronaldo,Bergkamp,Nedved,Pirlo,Del Piero,Ronaldihno,Beckham,Scholes,Gerrard,Henry,Davids,Totti and Figo my generation was truly blessed with amazing futbol. 👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I watched him lead France to WC trophy in 1998, got injured in 2002 and France was knocked out on group stage, came back in 2006 and led France to WC final. He's a true legend.

I was 8 years old. I started watching football at the World Cup 2006. I remembered when he was scoring the penalty against Buffon in the final. I was scared because of the ball which was touching the bar. My parents said he is a magician. Since that day I was in love with him. Such a shame he ended his career after that game. He could definitely continue his career until he was getting 40 years old. I have never seen such a player like him. And I seriously watched one game of him in my lifetime. Nobody can not compare to him. It's crazy but it's the truth. And until December 2021 I have seen many great players and also good playmakers but nobody was like him. After seeing so many documentaries, highlight videos and expert meanings I know why.

One of the best of all time ❤

Zidane skills are at another level . He used it often over and over , but with purpose, not for just show boating but with objective to get away so that he will be ahead of opponents.. The opponents couldn't tackle him , even surrounded by opponents .. Some great players , if tightly marked by few players , just couldnt do anything , but not zidane .

I’m Brazilian, and Zidane is the best player I’ve seen live (TV live broadcast).

I've seen him play twice at the Bernabeu, just astonishing. One of the greatest players of all time. Was a privilege to see him play live, will never forget it.

Best ever in my book. Complete player, leader, ambassador. Never tense in his action.

Maradona and ronaldo de silva and zidane you have to wait for a long time for such legends to be born again

zidane représente mon enfance il a été un maestro pour moi comme pour beaucoup aimant le football et le beau jeux amateur de tous ces tours il m'aura fais le temps d'un match rêver dans n'importe quelle club ou avec la france ou il a joué il a été comme un idole ce frère qu'on regarde avec fascination et admiration devant ce magicien qu'il était merci beaucoup zidane pour ces moments de joies et de tristesse aussi que peu procurer un match de football
