Do you have a favourite ever goal?

Although Kompany goal against Leicester was unbelievable taking everything into account. I actually just again, watched the City-QPR highlights. I cannot ever stop watching Agueros goal. That will never, ever be beaten. Especially as it snatched the title away from utd. There’s a part in that game that always brings tears to my eyes. I’ve watched it over and over again, it’s the part where Joe Hart has the ball at the end, and the final whistle goes, and he just wallops the ball into the air. UNBEATABLE.
 
For me it's Andy May's goal against Charlton ( City's 2nd in the 5:1 promotion game 1985) It's nothing special but as always stuck in my mind seeing it from the Kippax and not on the tv angle from the main stand. Just seemed too just float into the top corner from where I was standing .
 
So many,but my favourite from the last few seasons is kevins goal away v chelsea in the centurians season,he was just so determined to make something happen and just wouldn't be denied,it was an awesome moment for me,his goal to make it 3 at wembley v watford in the fa cup final stands out for me too,i remember in anticipation shouting out " take the piss kev,take the piss " and sure enugh he did,but this one v chelsea is the one for me

Like everyone, too many to remember let alone mention, but one of my favourites was Franny Lee's against Norwich. It was the free kick move they used to show on the opening credits of MOTD, early 70's, maybe 72 and I, as a young 12/13 year old was sat directly behind the goal, front row of the Platt Lane. I kept telling my mum "that's me" when it came on that night but she wasn't having it!

Last time scored from a corner :)
 
It's so difficult because there's been so many, but for me, it might very well be this one:



It's just absolute perfection. The movement, skill, vision, crispness of passing, weight of passing, sheer genius. It's just awesome. That last touch from Silva - absolute gooseflesh.

(And 93:30 doesn't count ;-) Too obvious)


That goal is a thing of beauty and it is nearly as good as the one Bill Leivers scored against, can't remember which, Bury or Swindon. He was clearly pissed off with miserable performances in front of him for nigh on the whole game, took the ball from his own penalty area, dribbled the length of Maine Road and performed the perfect 'banana' kick into the corner! From then on he was known on the North Stand as 'Banana Foot'!
 
So many to choose from as I’m starting to get on a big. However

Any goal vs the Rags is special, though Vinnies in the 1-0 was probably the one, followed by Mario and Dzeko in the 6-1 then Lakeys piss take in the 5-1

Add to that Tueart 76 LC Final
Kinky vs Soton
Dickov vs Gillingham
Hartford vs Swansea I think with a cheeky free kick in 82-83
Yaya vs Villa
All of Dzeko 4 against Spuds as I hate those twunts nearly as much as the Rags

Also worthy of note

Foden vs Spuds was emotional
 
The FA Cup run in 81.Paul Power at Goodison Park to make it 2-2.Paul Power again at Villa Park in the semi. Tommy Hutchison's header in the final and Steve Mackenzie in the replay. Absolute belters!

Funny! Just looked up my records and can't find a shred that says Bill scored against either of those, nor got an equaliser against anyone. Must have dreamt it!
