For a big man he was so light on his feet. He had amazing touch around the goal, just not for Australia.

- At his best The Duke was world class. We still love him at Elland Road. 💛💙⚽️👍

Remember my dad telling me about this goal and to watch MOTD for it...unreal, Viduka, Hasselbaink, Yakubu forward line...UTB

I love Mark Viduka. Maybe my favorite player of all time. 🇦🇺

Reminds me of Alen Boksic.. same size, strong dribbling, same work rate, big strong lads.. although slower and a bit worse of a first touch he could finish just as good. Top striker in this days

I'm a Boro fan so watched them both.. boksic was a better dribbler, faster and had more flair but viduka had a better touch and finishing. Still quite similar though I agree

Best ever player for Australia. 🇭🇲🇭🇷

I had great memories of going to tha Melbourne Knights games as a kid in tha 90s watching this guy play . It was great to see talent rewarded and he showed parts of tha world what a deadly threat he was inside tha box . One of our greatest exports

@@conorsmith8551 Thanks for that. Would love to visit Zagreb as well. From a Leeds fan of over 40 years.

Had great foot skills. Some his first touches are unique. Awesome player

Viduka was an immense talent and probably my all time favourite socceroo. Many a late evening/early morning staying up late to watch him bang in goals and dazzle defences for Celtic and Leeds. Unfortunately he got too burly and lost some speed otherwise he could’ve played for Barca or Man U (he almost signed).

Ridiculously Underrated

I loved him at Newcastle. Wish we'd been able to get him a few years earlier.

He has this unique turn. It seems so simple but its works that what make him dangerous

Viduka and Kewell Australia best players by far

Credit to Schwarzer for making a career after THAT game...

So many beautiful finishes. Such deftness of touch and lightness of feet. And he was ours.

Great player and also Luka Modrić and Viduka are couisins

Top class striker got some great goals for the club's he went to 👌👍🍀🇮🇪

This was the golden age of strikers. Haaland would not be out of place back then but he would have more competition.

The greatest Australian player

One of the best player australia had

he'd have been huge in a top team, had such a good strike rate.

STRONGBOW ♥️

Right up there with as one of the very best strikers of his era in the UK. The touch and skill, with his size and scoring nous...If the Socceroos had had one good midfielder with attacking passing skills...we could've gone close to a WC.

Only 90s and earlys 20 kids will know this man how good he was in wc2006 also as a cap

Shocking defending
