As a centre half, most of the goals I ever scored were headers for corners. My two favourites though are as follows.

In the league winning season of U16's, I scored from 60 yards with a free kick. It wasn't a fluke, I was actually shooting. Their keeper had been poor with crosses all game so I thought I'd stick one under his crossbar and see if the rebound fell to one of our players in the box. As it was, I caught it perfectly, he misjudged it and it went straight in off the underside of the bar. Won goal of the season with that one too.

The second was a diving header from a whipped cross. Same season, towards the tail end of the season, we were well clear and playing the team in second. 5 minutes in, the winger whipped one of those beautiful, pinpoint crosses in from deep to around the penalty spot. I flung myself at it, beat their man to the ball and watched it fly into the top corner of the net. Our net. We lost 1-0, only league game we lost all season.

Have at it GOT.
 

I played centre back, but I was on set pieces, so I scored a few. My best is probably a drilled 30 yard free kick, in a u18's cup final.

Hehe, OH AYE LAD AS IF! :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
Didn't score many as RB/DM so mine usually had to be decent strikes. One game got stuck up front though, was on a hatrick, got the ball about 25 yards about, it was bouncing up flicked it over the defender and just drilled it into the top corner was the last kick of the game too, was well happy
 
I was a Hibbo-esque right back so didn't score very many. In fact I think I only scored one in a competitive match for Welton Boys... Free kick just inside the opponent's half so I launched it into the penalty area (hoofing and kicking people were my 2 specialties), our big grock striker went up to head it, completely missed it, bounced up and over the keeper into the top corner. Bosh.

Aside from that I scored a couple of penalties in shootouts in tournaments and that's my entire goal scoring record :lol:
 

2 I can think of:

Goal 1
------
The Scene: Bakewell Park

The Match: Some mate vs. other mates

The Goal: Used to be quite the striker in my younger years and was well known for having a bullet left foot. One summer afternoon during a quite intense match in the park with mates, I scored the most beautiful Van Basten style volley as the ball dropped over my shoulder. Keeper didn't even move. Everyone went quiet as I legged it over the road with my shirt off celebrating.

Goal 2
------
The Scene: Lady Manners School weird uphill pitch

The Match: Was a house match. I was on Taylor (blue thank god) against whatever the greens were called (can't remember).

The Goal: It was raining and you know what school pitches were like. Well i jinked through about 4 challenges on the edge of the box and chipped a delightful lob over the keeper from the edge of the box. Think Cantona vs. Sunderland.
The best bit? They had a PE teacher in nets as they had low numbers. Sniff it Mr Redmond.

I really should have done more with how good I was when I was younger. Can barely run nowadays so stay in goal!
 
The best one I scored was the Frank Worthington one (youtube it). It wasn't in a meaningful match, I played right back back in the day when you very rarely ventured past the halfway line.
 
My best goal came in a trial for Reading when I was 14, as the ball came towards me between the half way line and 18 yard box, back to goal, I flicked it with the outside of my boot round the guy marking me, ran onto it, nut megged the defender and smashed it beautifully into the top corner from the edge of the box. About 10 minutes after that the fattest 14 year old I'd ever encountered smashed into me and tore the ligament in my left knee, thus ending my trial and my football career. Bitter sweet memories
 
Once tried one of those chip to the edge of the box and volley corner routines. It failed miserably every other time we'd tried and we regularly got bollocked for it but we were 4-0 up and playing well against a team of bottlers so we gave it a go and I caught it perfectly, straight down the middle of the goal, undipping, right over the keeper's head. Felt about 12 foot tall. By far the best I've ever scored.
 
During 5 a side when my mate played a chipped through ball that I caught on the volley and smashed into the far top corner via my left from about 20 yards out. Will never be able to that again.

Pretty much the same as this as I played RB, only scored two goals. One was when I had gone up for a corner and was standing on the edge of the box and the ball got hoofed out and my teams centre back smacked it back towards goal and it hit me arse and sent the keeper the wrong way. The second goal was better, I took the ball off the other teams winger and gave it to the CM and for some reason I just carried on running and the CM ended up playing it other the top to me and I ran onto it and slotted.
 
Used to play up front.

Scored a cracker, the opposition kicked off, our striker went diving in and the ball went straight up in the air...

I just watched it come down and connected with it sweet as you like...

Left foot from the centre circle, lobbed the keeper into the net...

Just gutted my old man missed it. Used to watch all the games but had to work just this one sunday.

Also scored from the corner flag. Mazy run going nowhere so just smashed it on target...Similar story. Keeper in tears.

I then did a Klinsmann dive on the dry sandy pitch to celebrate with the other lads and winded myself. Pretended it didn't hurt like.

Had to give up footy...Was growing too fast and developed Osgood-Schlatter disease in my knees..

got so bad i couldn't kick a ball without rolling over in agony. bad times man...
 
Mine was a few weeks ago, first game for my new team. Was just sitting outside the box after a long throw, and the ball was dropping through the air towards me. Just thought "I'm having this" and smashed it on the volley into the far corner. Pleasant debut.
