World Cup goals animation. London-based artist and filmmaker Richard Swarbrick used rotoscoping of some of the most famous moments in World Cup history to create this montage of animated scenes, complete with a period commentary which was part of the moment. The result is quite impressionistic and artistic, dulling the rough edges and making the moments flow.
The World Cup is not nearly as followed here in the States as it is overseas, so there may not be much interest in this. However, if you are looking for an introduction to the romance of football, then this animation is a great start. There are plenty of World Cup fans out there.
Now, a real fan will know each and every one of these goals! Actually, to recognize them all you'd have to be a huge fan of the World Cup. But I've compiled a list for you below.
The goals are, in order (I believe):
There you go! Enjoy the animation.
