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