Oh, What A Goal!
#5
Here's an old beauty from Mick Walsh, playing for Blackpool against Sunderland in 1975. Lucky the TV cameras were even there in the Second Division back then. In many ways, it's a shame that the evolution of the football and more frequent occurrence of goals like this has devalued the sense of wonder that somebody could strike an already-heavy ball, sodden with rainwater, off a muddy and uneven pitch and curl it inside the post from twenty yards out.
