Around 2010 I was in Italy as an Erasmus student ,at that time I was at top of my form running 15 km every day . The 5x5 football pitch was like 2 min from my apartment so many Italian guys were calling me to play for their team. Almost every day I was playing a 5x5 football match at least. I wasn't very good to score many goals but had great passing ability and was running a lot and most of the times I was the faster on the pitch. One summer afternoon I was on that pitch preparing to play and a guy brings one of his friends. Before the game starts in the warm-up everyone was watching that new guy .At that time I didn't speak almost any Italian and the Italians were talking to me in broken English mixed with Italian. I said to one guy wow he is really good ,and he told me that (the new guy) was voted last year the best player in Serie B.Then before the game starts he introduced himself to me .Ciao sono Davide !!! That guy was with long beard and a bun. The game starts, and he was on the opposing team he starts quietly but after like 5 mins he scored like 2 goals .Thats it I saw that as a challenge and I would have him man-to man for the rest of the game I decided. So I had him on manto man ,I was in his back in the centre of the field with my hands touching his back he gets the ball on his feet ,with one touch he passes the ball above his head and mine he runs towards the gk ,the gk exits and I am running behind him ,he lobs the gk in the penalty area and running to score an easy goal before the ball gets out of the field ,I am running full speed behind him . Just before the ball gets out and i am about to intervene a corner with one touch he lobs me to the inside of the field ,somehow I don;t fall even with that speed and follow again the ball ,the ball still in the air with no gk , he could score an easy goal,but as I follow him back he lobs me again and shoots he hits the crossbar and then goal from a difficult angle .I was in awe !!!!I have never seen anything like this on a 5x5 football field .I was like what just happened ??? No one has done such a move when I was defending him. and all these happen in like 5 sec 4 lobs 3 on me and one on the gk . The game ended I don't remember the score, probably we lost .After a month or so I went back to my country still thinking about that incident after a while I started searching best Italian players in Serie B/C ,beard etc and found the legend of Davide Moscardelli. To this day I am 90% sure he was that player on that field that afternoon. He was really special, can't be anyone else!!!

Moscardelli was one of the first viral memes that spread out in the early 2010s on the italian internet. First time i saw him play was when he was playing in Serie B in Rimini. He was a great player for Serie C and B and he had enough talent to get in Serie A in his thirties and that's a great accomplishment for a "province superstar". What made him viral on social media in 2011-12-13 was his beard and haircut paired with his capacity of scoring a couple of attractive goals in serie A.

A retired football coach was once my neighbor and he used to tell about this player called Pasi Nevanperä who was "the most talented guy Finnish football has ever seen, but unfortunately also the laziest". The guy was absolutely natural with the ball, but he only wanted to score goals and lots of them and didn't care how low a tier it happened on. He had no ambition to put in the work and effort to become the best he could be. That meant that ever since his youth years, he just took a step down in the league pyramid whenever he wasn't scoring enough goals anymore. He holds the record in goals scored on Finnish third tier during one season to this day, together with Joel Pohjanpalo. If I'm not mistaken, he still plays somewhere despite being close to if not over 50 years of age already. And you have to respect that. He loves the beautiful game for what it is, not for money or fame.
In Spain we have "Pablo Infante". Some insights: after numerous media interviews in Spain, it emerged that Infante spent years refusing offers from club in higher divisions due to his work as director of a bank branch, located 50 kilometers from Mirandés' facilities. He was a graduate in Business Administration from the University of Burgos, and played the vast majority of his career in teams in the Province of Burgos. He single-handedly led third division teams to Spain's cup semi-finals.

You can find some of his highlights on KZread. Take into account he was playing in low tier divisions and just decided to play at 2nd division when he promoted his really small and unknown team -for that time. So footage is rare and late footage is when he was already "old" -to say, speaking about football.
In my early twenties I played a 7 a side match with a 40 year old Iranian (I think) guy who had played in the 5th tier of portugeuse football. He was insane.

Rispetto per Moscardelli, grande uomo, prima di essere un grande giocatore. Chi capisce qualcosa di calcio ed ha giocato a certi livelli, o avrebbe potuto giocare a certi livelli, solo che a volte ci sono scelte di vita che vanno al di là del denaro. Poi c'è chi è stato fermato dalla burocrazia sportiva: in Italia a livello giovanile ti facevano firmare il " cartellino a vita" questa pratica ha rovinato la carriera di molti giovani talenti ( compreso il sottoscritto, senza falsa modestia) . Diventava un ricatto, dove alla fine la squadra doveva avere un'ottima offerta economica, altrimenti dovevi riscattare il cartellino economicamente; altrimenti per 2 anni non potevi essere tesserato per altre squadre ( se ricordo bene, erano gli anni 80/90) . Sarebbe interessante fare una ricerca su questo " cartellino a vita" perché realmente ha rovinato tanti giovani talenti italiani. Buona vita a tutti.

Great video, Robin Friday was an English player who had it all but never rose above the 3rd division playing for Reading and Cardiff City in a career that spanned only 4 years, he is often referred to as "The Greatest player You never saw",, I was reading that a Hollywood movie about him is definitely on the cards, I feel certain that there are similar stories out there from times gone by but it would be very difficult to fins stories like these now as football has become in many respects more of a business than ever which is to the detriment of game in my humble opinion.

There were very good players in my area, including myself, we even beat the champions of Pepsi cup and a couple school teams, most of us with potential for profesional players. And there was this guy, that rarely came out to play with us, he was just incredibly above everyone else. Believe me or not this guy was doing things that I have never seen any professional soccer player do, nor even Ronaldinho. It was just out of this world. Not only that, but he also had massive charisma and social skills. The professional team tecos of Guadalajara tried to sign him for 10 years, he refused and became a doctor. Honestly, the world lost a wonder because of the corruption on Mexican football. So, I know for a fact there are monsters out there that we will never know about.

Although the football market has changed dramatically you can’t make huge logical leaps like that. Small clubs could break the world transfer record back in those days. It wasn’t what it is now. A £35K transfer back then is not equivalent to £20M in 2005. That’s just silly. Maradona went for almost double the world record in 1982. Does that mean it’s the equivalent to almost £400M today? No.

@@daviebananas1735 it's not my logical leap, it's one that football journalists made having studied how it all changed. You dont think Maradona would have a 400m value? There's already players with release clauses at over 250m. 400m probably isn't far off what Maradona would be valued at. You've actually shot your own argument down there. Just because you don't like something doesn't make it not the case. Now get over it or jog on.

@@jamespicksley5781 So because a journalist made a sensationalist claim to make his article seem grander than it is, then it’s true? And no, a young unproven Maradona would not be signed for £400M from Boca Juniors today. That’s crazy talk. Don’t believe everything you read.
Wonderful story ... thank you so much
I Saw his highlights about 8/9 years ago and all I asked was for Porto to sign him xD but alas, it never happened
Roma should've signed him early in his career he would've give Roma everything like Totti.
I. . For one, respect this guy, Davide moscardeli. He is truly the goat of underdog.
Love your videos
I grew up with someone, who had a Croatian backstory. He was a complete footballer, 192 cm, 84 kg, as technical as Zlatan. He was voted the best national youth player of the year, three times in a row. But, he didnt fit in, in the football culture, we have. He was rejected for the youth national team, cause he had problems with taking "orders". Instead he hoped his dual national citizenship would give him a place in the Croatian national team. So he rejected the national team, in the country he was born in, and hoped he got a call. And he did, at 20, Red Star Belgrade contacted him. They gave him a chance, he was gone for three months. The war torn team, had its eyes renewing the team with Europes biggest unsigned talents. And i dont know what happened there, ive heard rumours, and he was broken in spirit when he came back and i cant forget the words he uttered;" Im not a good footballer ". He never played for another team, and retired at 21. We have talent, but, we have to many trainers, who are more interested in breaking a character to fit in their vision. There was also another player, who actually did play in the youth national team, a defender, but both his knees exploded before he even was 18.

@@rickard.eriksson Back than we didn't have that many foreigners at the club. Maybe he was on trial, but i doubt that i wouldn't remember that. That season there was only Bobby Dragas on loan from Australia. Only explanation is if the guy you mentioned was sent to youth squad, but that would be too hard to recollect, even for my knowing.

Nice ending...I love it! 😉 Fairy tales are not just for children, but for adults too, for they offer us a glimpse into the mysteries of life that we have long forgotten
That’s a reality for a lot of us. There’s other paths in life but if you have time still give it everything you got💯
From reading the caption i thought he was talking about me!!!😢😢😢
No doubt in his talent but playing in the 3rd division undoubtedly made his life easier and his skills look better.

Nah, his overall game you could question...but his displays of skill /technique in scoring goals is totally ridiculous and as good as anyone I've seen! You can clearly replicate those (specifically) at any level. #context
