Favourite ever goal… (1 Viewer)

…that City have scored and favourite ever for another team.

Two obvious ones are Houchen’s header and Moldovan’s v Villa. But recency bias awards it to Gus. Pulled a muscle celebrating it.


And from the 1998 World Cup. Jaw-dropping brilliance and added bonus of great Barry Davies commentary

It used to be Huckerby vs Man Utd, but recently, given the situation, the comeback and the commentary, I love Haji’s late winner vs Wolves. McCoist’s “Ohh no” just gets me every time.



Favourite from another team is Bergkamp’s vs Newcastle, just the most ridiculous piece of skill followed by the calmest finish.

Apparently they had practised the layoff and finish all week in training and Wright didn’t hit the target often , did it when counted though

I sat in the Holte End for this match, sitting on my hands for most of the game as it was quite a toxic atmosphere amongst the Villa fans. Resorted to joining in with them slagging off their own players, just to release some tension.

Went to the front of the stand, when everyone had left, to let out a solitary clenched fist. Clocked there was a guy not stood too far away from me and shit myself - I’ll never forget his words..”It’s ok mate, I’m from Eastern Green!”

Great day

Going by goals that seemingly concluded a game.

First
Ultimately cancelled out by late equaliser by Leeds but the excitement and deafening noise of Keith's goal against Leeds was an incredible moment.

Second
Victor's winning goal in our 4-3 win against Man Utd.

Third
Killers winning goal v Luton in 1985.

Fourth
Darren's winning goal against Man Utd.

Fifth
Only fifth as plenty of time to go.
Lloyd's shot/cross against Tottenham.
Just like Keith's goal, can still see it in my mind, etched into my memory forever.

I was in the main stand on my own. Thought i had hidden it well until the bloke behind me said ‘you’re cov aren’t you’ .
Inmoved at half time next to the city fans. There was about 10-15 cov in the end block then.
the thing remember more than the goal was bosnichs wonder save in the first half.

Some good shuts for the second part of the question here: Favourite goals not scored by The City

in terms of the first, to pick one not yet mentioned, Telfer at Filbert Street. Backs to the wall for the whole 2nd half with 10 men, mad goalmouth scramble, breakaway, the realisation it was Telfer who was through, then a sweet as you like ping into the top corner. Bedlam.
