Today legendary "Fiorentina" and Argentina national team striker Gabriel Batistuta celebrates his 49th birthday.
On this occasion, the portal "Football Italia" decided to compile the top five goals of the player.
Against "Udinese" (1997.08.31)
A distant strike allowed the striker not only to achieve a hat-trick, but also to help the team expand their victory in the first match of the season.
Against Colombia (1999.10.15)
Although it was just a friendly match, the fantastic sniper's raid through almost the entire field left no fans indifferent.
Against "Arsenal" (1999.10.27)
One of the most impressive goals at "Wembley" stadium. In a Champions League group match, Batistuta accurately struck from a sharp angle, leaving no chance for the "gunners" goalkeeper David Seaman to defend.
Against "Man Utd" (2000.03.15)
Another English club felt the striker's power - in the Champions League knockout stage match, the ball, launched as if from a cannon, tore through the "Man Utd" goal net.
Against "Verona" (2000.11.19)
At that time, the "Serie A" championship was famous for players who executed penalty kicks excellently, and talents such as A. Del Piero or S. Mihajlovičius demonstrated their skills.
Trying not to fall behind these players, G. Batistuta, who moved to "Roma" in the twilight of his career, also showcased his talent.
