"A genius, a marvellous player that really loves playing football. When people say that a man is as big as his dreams, that fully applies to him; he prepared for matches the way other people prepare for a wedding.” (Nasko Sirakov about Hristo Stoichkov)

I am from Brazil and a football fan of Stoichkov, top scorer of the 94 cup with 6 goals and 4th place in the cup, before Bulgaria had never won a world cup game, but the generation of soitchkov and company deserved to be a cup finalist, football very nicely.
I am Italian, and I say if Bulgaria would have not lost against Italy, they would have beaten Brazil and win World Cup 94'... they where a great team in 1994 with Stoichkov.
😢 true but I was kinda hard having to play against the other team and the homosexual in Black. But at least we made history when Mexicos Door broke and had to be Changed during the game 😂. And his interview before the game vs Germany "ein zu zwei zu Drun(BAM in Bulgarian)" on German TV was just LMFAO and it was 1:2 😂 ein and zwei in German so he got the end result right 🎉
You being from Brasil, in Bulgaria we say, if you even decide to run towards him- you are never gonna catch him🎉😂
@@nonnogol Brazil would not lose that title
I am a Real Madrid fan and Hristo Stoichkov at that time was my favorite player.
I might be mistaken but I don't think he was in Real Madrid at all
@@Fey44 You're a foolish ? You do not know how to read ? I am a fan of Real Madrid and Stoichkov was my favorite player at that time. It didn't matter to me at all that Stoichkov played for Barcelona.

He never said he did he merely stated that he was a Real Madrid fan and was a fan of stoichkov…I’m a Leeds fan and loved watching him play, brilliant.

...Великая сборная Болгарии начала 90-х годов!!!..Величайшая !!!...никогда теперь такой больше небудет - к сожалению!!...Каждый в сборной был Сууперзвездой!! 👍
I remember yordan letchkov scoring an amazing header in 1994. That was an incredible Bulgaria side
един велик българин и спортист, който прослави нашата страна и народ...
Such a great artist and great champion. Daily players does not have even a spit of his skill,creativity and class. Thanks for the magic,Hristo!
I had the immense pleasure of watching him play when he was in the MLS. Unfortunately, I was too young to know about him before. He once scored 47 goals in 38 appearances for CSKA. Absolute legend
Once a ballon d’or winner!!! Living Legend, I will never forget how he carried bulgaria in USA’94.
Stoichkov was a class player under that cruyff dream team. Him, laudrup and romario were deadly. Stoichkov was one of the most elegant technical players ever.
I haven't been a soccer fan for long, but his goal against Mexico in the World Cup told me he was one of the best!
Stoichkov was one of my favourite players when I was growing up in Ireland in the 80/90s. Absolutely loved the way he played. Tried to copy him out in the garden!!! Not only was he technically brilliant but he played with such passion. You could see he loved playing football. He was so unpredictable & was always on the verge of losing his temper haha. A lunatic at times!!! But boy could he play. His left foot was precise and he could hit the ball like a rocket. Lethal finisher, great at running with the ball and he was a winner. What a legend. Great for Bulgaria(when underdogs) and for a top side like Barca. That Barca dreamteam was exceptional with him, Laudrup(so underrated), Koeman, Pep and Romario(for a short time), Bakero and other class players in it. The football they played was amazing. Loved that jersey with the white stripe down the arm.
No wonder Barca won their first champions league title at that time. It's gift to have striker like stoichkov and midfielder like laudrup in the same team with Cruyff as coach. It's a dream team ! Thanks for this video !!

I remember Barcelona with Hristo in the lineup. A great striker. Greetings from Poland
Big respects of a football fan from your neighbour Turkey. What a player.
Стоичков - великий футболист! Его молниеносные забеги чего стоят, всегда восхищался!!
I recall that like a year ago Mr. Stoichkov was working here for the UDN channel and I saw how this man that was reknown to have a terrifying character cry like a boy onc he heard the news his Idol Johan Cruyff had died. What a legend
He is a generally good guy. Lubo Penev, our striker, was fighting testicular cancer by '94 (Lubo was the one to give the pass to Emil Kostadinov, who scored in 89 minute, 59 second of the last game of the qualifications for USA 94 against France. the game was played in Paris on Park de Prince. We needed a win, it was 1:1 until the last second of regular time. Hristo, Lubo and Emil have grown up together in CSKA). Lubo missed USA 94. Hristo gave him his golden boot award from USA 94. Another all time great Bulgarian player - Trifon Ivanov. I feel like crying when I think of it... He passed away suddenly 5 years ago. Hristo was crying like a baby.
One of the best players in the football history. Top 10 absolutely.
he's not even top 5 on the balkan list
these are his best clips and he's scoring only tap ins and penaltyes, what an overrated player

Grande Stoichkov and great Barbosa Futbol Videos for uploaded this video!. Thank you very much!
Обичам те,Христо!Велик си!
Excellent player, as well as Balakov.
After Messi he was the most influential player of the blaugrana sucess. Pure talent
Well it's a difficult comparison. But the influence of Laudrup who time and time again provided the space and supply alongside this great player, cannot be understated.
Българи, ей с това се хвалете!
Ceco Ivanov Да, има за какво, Христо Стоичков е докарал България до такова ниво във футбола, и трябва да се хвалим!

Hristo Stoichkov was a great Leader, great player. Bulgarian Legend.
Просто гений! Много от головете напомнят на тези, отбелязани от Меси, чиито идол е бил Стоичков!!!
Artistic and Hristo Stoitchkov was an Artist. Great Player 🙂
Watching this video i understand that why messi said stoichkov was one of his idol.
I didn't know Messi said that! I felt even more proud of the fact I am Bulgarian! Stoichkov is a legendary football player!
He was robbed in 92 when Van Basten won Ballon d`Or...Best player of that year..Okey, he won it in 94.Well deserved of course. In his prime,he was unstoppable.His dribbling ability at speed,explosive acceleration,unpredictable shots...Also one of the best passers and crossers of that time,free kick specialist..And of course,batshit crazy mothafaka..Helluva Entertainer :)
beyond crazy...he would yell back at Cruyff ..." Take me off the pitch, if you feel im so terrible...do it! I dare you! " ...Cruyff would just stare and ignore him...
Hahahahhahahahahahah
In 94 Baresi deserved Ballon d or
Van Basten with a broken ankle won the Serie A title as the absolute protagonist that year and he didn't even have the chance to play Champions League. If anyone deserved the bdor that year instead of him it was Baresi, not Stoichkov
It was the same Stoickov who in the night of 25 November 1992 said " this night Van Basten has won the balloon d'or". Stoichkov was never in the same league of Van Basten.
What a complete all around player ...truly great ...The greatest Bulgarian player ever...
Lenda! Enorme jogador. serás recordado sempre

Fantastic player with a great personality. I really enjoyed his occasional antics and the way he always looked a little mad/angry, be it with the referee, his opponents or sometimes his teammates. However, you could see that beneath that, there was a good man and a true champion.
I think he was an artist at its best. A very precious soul...

One of the best of '90s
Great Hristo Stoitchkov
The most beautiful goal of Hristo maybe was against São Paulo in 1992(0:28), but this team had Cafu, Zetti, Raí, Toninho Cerezo, Zetti, Muller and others. We won the game. The best Brazilian team in history, after Santos (60's) and Flamengo (80's). To this day it is remembered in South America, for it was Cruiyff's Barcelona.
Ronaldão quase quebra a coluna ou o pescoço do stoichkov num carrinho e o juizão nada fez, com o cara empenado ficou mais fàcil kkkkkkkk
I watched that game, damn so many legends in one game. Two titans fighting for the world championship
What a class!
