A bit of this player's class shown in this video. Consider for many the greatest player of all times after Pele, even Maradona considered Jorge "Magico" Gonzalez superior than himself, Born in El Salvador a Country with no Football History he was transfered to Cadiz CF (after a fight between Cadiz CF and Atletico de Madrid to acquire his services) after leaving sparkles of his class the 1982 World Cup, no in vain in that tournament he formed part of the best 11 of that Year's World Cup although his Country didn't even win one single match scoring only one goal. In the 80s he was one the most wanted players in Europe Clubs such as Barcelona, Valencia and Bayern Munich put their eyes on this mythic player, He never got to do much bigger things professional wise, such as winning the Balon de Oro or Fifa World best player because of his known reputation out of the field, reason why he also never played for a greater team. In the 1986 Spanish League Competition Cadiz CF agreed with his directives that "Magico" was not going to get payed a yearly salary anymore instead he was going to get payed per each game he played, that way the team would cover their backs if "Magico" decided not to show up for a game, that crazy he was. In cadiz He is considered a Legend, no other players has ever had so much impact or influence in any other Club as this Central American had in Cadiz. In Cadiz His tales are told generation after generation. He was the one that created the snake what you see Ronaldinho doing all the time, He was voted greatest player of the Century for the CONCACAF Region. Yes that means over Hugo Sanches. CHECK OUT THE 4TH Video Scene I have never seen anyone done that before he makes the ball pass right in front of his opponents face. More»
maybe he was the best player in his time..
but players are getting better and even better every year.
i do think that he might be the best born-to-be-great football player.... but i don't think he is the best player of all times.
so i think he COULD have been the best player of all times, but just didn't work hard enough to BE the best player of all times.
back in Pele's "decade" soccer was so much harder
goalies didnt wear gloves or protection
they even wore hats and the soccer ball was as hard as a rock and wieghd like 3 pounds
2007 wright know soccer players arent getting better soccer is getting easier
WHO IS pele?

By drsmoke 1161752748 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removethis is a real good player hi is the bes on his time i can not see all his triks
THAT THIS PLAYER EL MAGICO (DO YOU KNOW WHAT MAGICO MEANS) WAS THE ONLY PLAYER HE CONSIDERED BETTER THAN HIMSELF, HE SAID THIS WHEN THEY WERE BOTH PLAYING TOGETHER FOR BARCELONA IN THE EXHIBITION TRIP TO THE USA. BARCELONA DIRECTIVES FOUND MAGICO SLEEPING AT HALF TIME ON ONE OF THE EXHIBITION MATCHES. HE SCORED THE WINNING GOALS.
By papucla10 1154840946 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWe are talking about 1980, and he did all that we can see now on football, he was playing in my country`s team many years, i could see him and was the best player of spain of course.
I born in 1974, and i saw him play, i´m spanish where is the best football of the world, and he was the best player.
I`m sorry by my letter if it´s bad wrote.
The last team he played was in the "CADIZ C.F." you can see this team in www.cadizcf.com
(remember year 1980 ......)
Pele
Maradona
Zidane

By goriodsvedece 1196878588 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveJorge "El Magico" Gonzalez is da best player in history. He jus doesn't get da credit because he didn't come from a good international team and cause of his lack of discipline. but da video says it all, jus look at da barcelona defence get fucked up!!! lol
By zamng 1149054079 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI was born in El Salvador and move up here in Canada 22 years ago. My father was a great player as well (Toleke was his nickname)...but he always said that El Magico was the one. By many, mr. Gonzalez was #2 in the world after Pele but of course his bad discipline was his turning point in his carreer. The snake "la culevrita" was his move and apparently no one did it like him...even Ronnie. The real name of that move is the culevrita, not elastico etc...
It's just too sad that my country had to deal with a civil war and waste so many lifes and talent.
hay ke admitirlo era unos de los mejores jugadores del mundo

Was this guy really good?. Was this guy as good or almost as good as George Best?.

By Dancito 1177134999 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI'm Salvadorean and my father had known him when they were younger (they are the same age now). He was born in Chalatenango, El Salvador but moved to Santa Ana (where my father lived) to play for C.D. Fas when he was only 17 years old. He also had 5 other brothers who played in the 1st class division Salvadorean league, but he was the one who shined amongst all of them. He led El Salvador to the '82 World Cup in Spain by elminating Mexico as the underdog, which is why I think Mexicans hate so much. After him though, Central America hasn't come up with any decent players.
By Dre-Dog 1176020092 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemovePELE, DI ESTEFANO, HUGO SANCHEZ, ZIDANE, CRUYFF AND EVEN RONALDO AND RONALDINHO KICK "MARADONA'S" BIG FAT DRUGGY ASS, HE IS GOOD BUT "I" WILL NEVER CONSIDER HIM THE BEST OF ALL TIME.
HE SCORE A GOAL WITH HIS HAND ON A WORLD CUP THAT'S A SIN WITH NO EXCUSE HE DESERVES TO GO TO HELL TO PLAY BASKETBALL AND OTHER SPORTS WHEN HE DIES THAT'S ENOUGH TO KICK HIS ASS OUT OF THE TOP TEN FOOTBALL PLAYERS OF ALL TIME I'LL GIVE HIS SPOT TO "GEORGE BEST".
PS-I'M FROM ARGENTINA AND I SAY THAT "DI ESTEFANO" IS THE BEST ARGENTINEAN PLAYER OF ALL TIME FOLLOWED BY "BATISTUTA" & "KEMPES" AND THEN MARADONA.
Mágico González jugó en un equipo modesto español, el Cádiz C.F. que tiene la mejor afición del mundo, aclaración que no creo necesaria hacer pero por si alguien no lo sabe aún. Es una auténtica leyenda. Se enamoró de la ciudad como todo el que viene a ella y la ciudad se enamoró de él. Cádiz es diferente al resto del mundo por la sabidurÃa con la que viven los gaditanos. No os aconsejo que la visitéis porque es pequeña y no cabemos todos.
By Zedzed 1169667488 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeiceberg person umm maradona did not take steroids he took cocaine which as everybody knoes does not enhance ur physical perfomance and zidane is really good but henry is the best euro player now i havent seen enuff of pele to compare him to maradona but maradona was fukin raw!!!!!
By gamarra510 1169008409 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveA lovely bit of football but the comments surounding the best player in the world explain why there is so much crap playing for country and making mega bucks when they are nothing more than overpaid atheletes. Todays game is faster but hardly better to watch than older stuff. Zidane is greatest player from europe no arguments as he can control whole game. Henry is great but not in same league as he doesn't influence the game like zidane. And maradona was the greatest of them all. He won a world cup and took a medioca team in Italy all the way. Thats influencing the game. You only have to watch what he was capable of and even the roughest could stop the little man My only dissapointment was that he wasn't english
By ever88 1163873475 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeanyone know the name?
may be no better than oters, are stars in them season... but, Jorge "el Magico" Gonzalez is the best of all times... he did play in his childhood, after the school went to practis in the comunal stadium in his natal Santa Ana at west of El Salvador... He in a seat gave litle kiks to shake whit his feet the cocoa milk in litles box... like doing with a litle ball... squared : /...
his human and no magic side was drinking... like Maradona... el Magico had his adiction...
Maradona was the best in his time, el Magico in all futbol times... and maradona know it...and for me... actualmente el mas grande futbolista que conoce el mundo no hace goles... es el gran Iker Casillas... es extremadamente tecnico y si no lo han visto jugar detenidamente... haganlo, hay varias recopilaciones en la red...
SAUDE DESEJA O DOTOR PRA VOCE...
but diego maradona is no shit player he is nofin like any player his moves he envented every single style of move he used he didn't copy any 1. Now about Zidane and how he is better henry i fink he is henry is good but zidane helped france ass if it wasn't for him anda bit of help from da defenseive plan against ronaldinho dey won most of all every1 knows dat when it's a free kick zidane's kicks r amazing henry helped because he always sneaks in places were no one expects to go to and he scores dats it but zidane is better dan hery by abit i fink !!!!
By davidxes 1161416963 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveIf you ask me, Maradona is the best. Ronaldinho is also a phenominal player, as is Henry, Bergkamp, and Zidane. But i still think that Maradona is better than any of them.
However, my opinion may be a little biased because I'm Argentine.
Jorge El Magico Gonzalez is without any doubt the best player the world has seen, I am lucky to be a Salvadorean like him and to have the same age, I saw this dude when he started playing for antel, the National Team and Spain, I tell you folks if you want to see talent, real talen, not fake, you got to see "El Magico" ole!!!

MAGICO WAS AMAZING, YES BUT IF HE WERE BETTER THAN MARADONA MORE THAN JUST 1 IN 100 PEOPLE WOULD OF HEARD OF HIM! SIMPLE! ALSO DNT EVER CALL FOOTBALL, "SOCCER" ITS AN INSULT TO THE GAME.

Although i would never download that song onto my Ipod!!! =) (that was my first comment about any video ever)
By Wine31 1151814946 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removehe is better than maradona and ronaldinho. he just wasn't famous because the country he was from didn't qualify for worldcup. Ronaldinho is one hake of a player buy magico is just a little bit better
By rojansoccpro 1151033668 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeel magico is a ok player ronaldinho is better but now one can surpass pele
Gonzalez it's true magic but i wonder..
who's singing in the video? song's title?
?????
Well ..he seems a great player ..it is so evident that he had a way to keep the ball infront of him no matter how accurate is the pass or the position in respect to the goal ..
But the song is awesome , anyone knows which band ..
so cool song , i turned off the monitor and listened to it about 10 times ..
Anyone the song please ...
face to face the people of the rasta ..

By yorikqq 1149602172 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removealthough there's quite a lot of people who don't know who this latin player was in his "wonder years", i can assure that if you'd ever had the chance to watch his skills, you'd realize he was even greater than Maradona, and even Pele. and for those who think I maybe out of line here, let me tell you, ¡ I know !, and that's because I've seen so many matches on where he played at, and not actually on my TV set, but at Jorge Alberto " Magico" Gonzalez Barillas' family TV set......... He used to be my neighbor here in El Salvador, couple of blocks up my house.......

By get over it 1147980393 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removehe was amazing! but his bad discipline made him loose the chance to play for biger and better teams.. the real "magico" for sure better than Maradona...
By rojito 1147679261 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI'm from mexico and we know who Jorge "magico" Gonzalez is. He was voted(by fifa) the best player in the 20 first century in the concacaf region. The move everyone knows about that ronaldinho does was not invented by maradona,but by this guy. Except "magico" did better, I've never seen a player do it better then him. Why does a small country get such a great player,when my country(mexico) needs a legend to finally get respect from the euopean nations.
By Sanke99 1147539694 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveYo lo vi jugar en El Salvador, realmente era grandiosos jugador, los movimientos que ahora hacen los grandes jugadores, magico los hacia antes de 1982

By b1gman 1151679142 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removejust a good player
but not better than maradona, ronaldo, ronaldinho etc
Better than Maradona yes for a lot, with ronaldo u can`t compare him because ronaldo is an striker, and with ronaldinho yes i agree with u Dinho its better but Dinho is the best player in the History i have never seen someone like him
