Favourite World Cup Goal

Hi all,

With the World Cup about to come on us, what is everyone's favourite goal/got a story about it?

Mines a pretty standard one.

6 year old Edin, excited for England vs Argentina, goes up to the local shop with his da to buy some sweets for the game. Walk to the shops in my England shirt, get called an "English Pr*ck" by some lovely Scottish teenagers and walk back home ready to see my favourite player, Michael Owen, play football.

Then the game itself, Michael Owen weaved between a sea of defenders and scored the greatest goal ever. Then something bad happened after that I have completely blocked out of my memory.

What is your favourite?

Let me apologize on behalf of the Scottish people Justin Trudeau style EdInspur, for the years of abuse you suffered.

I really liked that goal Maradinna scor d with his hand.

The second is just amazing, probably the best World Cup goal in my opinion.

It was if England had Karius in goal.

Raheem Sterling's against Italy in 2016.

The crowd went wild, subdued celebration from the player though.
