Below is the list of the top five goals the tournament’s seen thus far.

1. Tim Cahill’s Volley Against the Netherlands
What separates Tim Cahill’s volley against the Netherlands isn’t the distance, nor the height of the ball in from Ryan McGowan. It wasn’t Cahill’s first-time strike, either. It’s the fact that the goal came off his weaker left foot. Being able to score a spectacular volley is difficult enough, but to doing it with your weaker foot only exacerbates the attempt. Just don’t tell that to Tim Cahill.
