Which one was more euphoric? Academy lad sealing the derby double or a fan favourite introducing himself to the home fans in style?

Both were special, Cavanis was pure class though.

Both are special goals but McT's was more euphoric for me. Cavani's one is better in terms of quickness of thought, technique and keeper's positioning, but sealing the derby in front of a full crowd was incredible.

Great shout @Samid. McTominay's goal was more spectacular being against City but Cavani's goal was much better as he actually lobbed the keeper.

Cavani’s is the better goal but McTominay’s was such a release. We’d been pinned back by a late city onslaught and that goal secured the points, releasing all the tension in the stadium.

McT's was one my favourite ever moments as a United fan. Particularly because many of us already knew that we wouldn't be back for a while.

Reflecting on it some more, I’m pretty sure the celebrations during McT’s goal was the last time I hugged, grabbed or shook hands with anyone other my wife and kid. That’s mental.

More euphoric? McT’s by a country mile.

Cavani’s was essentially meaningless but a better strike.
Technically, Cavani’s got us a PL point and McTominay’s was the last kick in a game we were already winning. To the letter, Cavani’s goal was actually more meaningful!

Scott’s was more euphoric though of course. Full house and local rivals.

McTominay’s meant more but Cavani’s was better, such a perfect finish just caressed over the keepers fingertips, and these goals are ALWAYS much better when the ball hits straight into the net without bouncing... sorry but they just are.
