"Great movie! I'm not much of a soccer fan but I would consider this a sports classic. The story, acting and soccer action was all fantastic. It's a shame this film wasn't given more exposure in the states. I can't wait to see Goal! 2: Living the Dream to be released." --Jason of SportsinMovies.com
"Sports Classic. All you Yankee Doodle Dandies that have any interest in football (soccer), you need to watch this film Goal and Goal 2. Normally anything to do with soccer, (football, as we say over here in good old Blighty) the acting is crap, see Escape to Victory (UK), or Victory as titled in the USA. Now that was not bad but the acting was pathetic, even Michael Caine was yuck. GOAL is believable and once you have seen Goal you will want to see Goal 2 then to complete the trilogy Goal 3 will be on the horizon. Brilliant movie and the best ever football (soccer) movie ever made." --JJ from the UK
"Best soccer movie i have seen in years"
"One of the best movies ever. Thats what i wanna do is make it and never give up on my dream like Santi did. Well done to the Directors!"
"Probably my favorite sports movie of all time. I am American, so for a soccer (football) movie to take 1st place.... that is HUGE!" --DC
