6.1

About this goal

Carr motors down the right and opts to pull the trigger with a flying strike high into the top left corner.

Ratings

Aesthetically Pleasing 18/30

 

Because it's wet the ball whizzes off Carr's boot and the bounce in off the post is pleasing.

Technical Difficulty 16/30

 

It's a long-range goal from a player who never scores them, so tough to judge the difficulty, but still a well-struck shot from a tough angle.

Uniqueness 9/20

 

Long-range goal from the edge of the box.

Importance 8/10

 

Clincher in a 3-1 win over eventual champions United.

Standard of Opposition 10/10

 

Manchester Utd.

FootballCritic Verdict

6.1

Memorable because it's scored against the champions, but pretty conventional in all other aspects. We seen one of these a weekend.
