West Germany

Klaus Fischer scores a breathtaking goal for West Germany against France in the 1982 World Cup semifinal, delivering one of the greatest moments in tournament history. As a cross is sent into the box during extra time, Fischer, with his back to goal, executes a stunning bicycle kick, sending the ball past the helpless goalkeeper. His incredible timing, technique, and composure under pressure bring West Germany level at 3-3, forcing the game into penalties. This iconic goal cements Fischer’s reputation as a master of acrobatic finishing.
