Disagree, the wonderfully intentional effort against Italy for me
From reading the posts on the England 88 Vs Italy 94 thread, it occured that both goals were brilliant. So puting a side your age, the teams they were playing against etc. Which did you think was the better of the two goals. For me its the one aginst England - what a header back across, just class.
Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!

Neither goal was crafted...
Think the header against england was excellently executed without even a hint of luck to be honest. Goal against Italy was jammy but if you don't shoot you don't score. defo the england one for me though
Gotta be the England one, Italy one was a great moment too but the England one was more special what with it being the first time we qualified, there was no luck involved, was a header scored by the smallest man on the pitch added to the hillarity as well as it being more satisfying to beat England than Italy
Peter shilton was in goal for england at the time and was rated the prob the best in the world at the time also
