Non-United goals that made you lose your s**t

[Paul_Scholes18]

Has anyone mentioned the Gerrard slip goal?
I see it is mentioned haha.

That one has to be some of my favorite goals ever.

Bents goal vs Liverpool is classic, but did not see it live.

If I can be cheeky and reverse this as a non-United fan by naming a United goal, O’Shea’s late / last gap winner at Anfield in 2007 is right up there.

Naming a non-United and non-Blackburn goal, probably Hazard’s equaliser against Spurs in 2016, meaning that Leicester’s miracle was confirmed.

As much as I hate him, some of the goals Suarez scored have left me in awe.
The backheel that he bent into the far corner was something else. He really was a complete striker, hard work and determination combined with a silky touch and great technique.

The 40 yard volley against Norwich.

I went to a Norwich forum afterwards and they were moaning at how naive their defenders were and how you can't back off a player like that when 40 yards out.

Chipping a defender inside the area and then scoring on the half volley in the same game was pretty good too.

It was only Norwich and all but I still think it's the best individual performance I've ever seen from a liverpool player. He bullied them like nothing else.

Speaking of non-United goals vs Norwich ..

Me and my dad reacted exactly like the commentary.

Also this


Even though we went further at Euro 2020 this felt so much bigger. That night was bloody special.

“You won’t see a better goal that that!”

Slow start but once they got to the half way line, it moved up a gear. Love how the commentators voice goes up a notch for the last few passes.

And it’s v Liverpool.

 

[Kivu]

Crouch vs. City !

Why were celebrations so corny back then

Why were celebrations so corny back then

Because instead of a 10 hours WhatsApp discussion titled “let’s create a new goal celebration lads. How about a bobsleigh one? or maybe a pyramid”, they went to the pub or a bookies.

Michael Thomas's goal for Arsenal at Anfield to win the league in 1989.

 

[McTerminator]

Peter Crouch’s wonder volley for Stoke at him vs City some years back and

Papiss Cisse for Newcastle against Chelsea some years back

Didn't watch it live or anything, but Gourcuff vs PSG is one of the very few non-United goals (along with that Roberto Carlos free kick) where I must have watched the replay dozens of times just to try and figure out how the feck he's done it.

Pure, unadulterated filth.

Abreu's paneka to win the shootout for Uruguay against Ghana in 2010.

I was already supporting Uruguay after Clive Tyldesley said at the start of the match that 'we're all Ghana fans now' (maybe childish logic from me there !). Also I thought it was complete justice that Uruguay went through, given the infamous handball incident stemmed from a huge dive by Ghana's Dominic Adiyiah (whose shot was then blocked by Suarez), the officials should have flagged for offside beforehand, and Uruguay had a blatant penalty not given (when Abreu was fouled in he box) earlier in extra-time.

Three goals that made my jaw drop in disbelief:

Owen vs Argentina
James Rodriguez vs Uruguay
Ibra vs England

 

[arthurka]

This one is pretty decent

This used to be my favourite non-United PL goal until I recently realized that Van Persie shinned it. Embarrassing effort now.

 

[maniak]

Figo vs Denmark, no idea of the year.

This goal still makes me laugh. Quite what Risse was thinking was beyond me. Would have been a fantastic header up the other end

Bergkamp v Argentina @ France 98:


Genuinely watch it all the time and almost feel like it gets better every time I see it.

 

[Devilyouknow]

Messi’s solo run vs Zaragosa in 2010. Remember watching that live on sky sports with jaw on the floor. Commentary was class for that goal too

 

[UnrelatedPsuedo]

Ronaldinho, Chelsea. The one with the dance taking the piss out of Terry.

It's definitely special.

This one did me in though.
