Perfect timing!
the admin knows what he's doing…
Shinned 😮
Hmm I wonder why this is uploaded……..😏
The execution of garnacho was probably better, but the significance and timing definitely weren’t. Still though, what a goal
Great form admin
coach will tell you of course what matters more is the execution over the course of the game but we all love to dream and live the big moments
Rooney's was rubbish compared to Garnacho. Take your heads out the sand, Rooney fanboys!
The best was Ibrahimovic and Bales by far
Technically Garnacho's is better but Rooney's meant so much more.
Overhead kick league table:
1. Bale v Liverpool (doing it in a UCL final)
2. Garnacho v Everton (most beautiful)
3. Ronaldo v Juventus (most acrobatic)
4. Rooney v City (most powerful)
5. Zlatan v England (furthest out)
Don't remember Nani's goal either..and I was as at the game haha
Garnacho's goal was better executed. Rooney's goal was more important.
Contextually = Rooney's was better.
Technically = Garnacho's was better.
Youtube's algorithm is really working. 😅
Shinned it
Why is this relevant now?? It's all about Garnacho and his Idol CR7 's celebration after his goal..SIUUUUUUU!
The way the current United manager AND captain reacted to Garnacho was by telling him he isn't good yet.
i didnt understand one single word
Wayne Rooney probably scored the best goal I have ever seen. Certaimly the best bicycle kick. A powerful and quick cross with not much time to react. Not much time to adjust. Also had Richards and Kompany near him. Richards was 1.81 / 96 kg and Kompany was 1.92 / 99 kg. Rooney around 1.76 82 kg. So he was also in a big physical and strength disadvantage. Not much room to operate on. Other bicycle kicks are usually soft lob crosses with no one in the proximity of the attacker. So the reaction time by Wayne had to be cat quick. Also the awareness. Then also the technicque, the athletocism was on point.
Finally the shot was a rocket. Impossible to generate that type of power with no base under him. 3 Joe Harts could not have saved it. It was quick, accurate and flat like a rocket. Most bicycle kicks are soft and lobbed into the goal.
Gareth Bales goal vs Liverpool comes to mind as well. That was even quicker. But the execution wasn't nearly as pure. Thats really the only one that comes close.
Rooney goal best ever overhead kick . There's best goals of all types
"You'll never see that"… until 2023.
