Schick v Cavani goals - which is better?

[rebel]

Schick's goal is much better in lots of ways.

[Whitestone]

One was offside and one wasn't so it's gotta be the Schick goal. That said even if Cavani had been onside the Schick goal just tops it.

[deadcowboys]

Agree with Whitestone that 1 was offside but although Cavani was closer to goal, his strike is better against a quality Keeper unlike Schick's strike against a gone missing Jock. Both wonderful strikes though.

I think Whitestone is saying Schick's goal is better, I agree.

As Sean Connery would say, "I feel Schick after watching that".

[Woolly Mammoth]

The fact it was scored against scotland makes it a better goal.

[JoelH5]

Is this a joke? There's no comparison. The Schick goal is in the top 3 Euro goals of all time. Alongside Van Basten and Gazza

[H4usuallysitting]

Schick......even if it hit him on the back of the head and in

[H4usuallysitting]

Schick's first goal was also very good......can we sign him

[filham]

No doubt in my mind it was Conroy from the halfway line at Wycombe.

Jon Harleys goal against Villa in 2003 was better.

Jon Harleys goal against Villa in 2003 was better.

I couldn't disagree more- Harley just hit that as hard as he could, the Czech showed composure and skill to pop the ball over keeper and curled into top corner.

So Harleys goal wasn't as good? Watch Harleys goal again Jim. It's a tremendous strike dipping at just the right time past the keeper. The fact that it was for FFC makes it even sweeter.

Although I admire the opportunistic nature of goals like these, I would never class them as goal of the season and best goal ever etc. I scored goals like that when I was about 13 years old whacking the ball from 45 yards sailing over a small goalkeeper who couldn't reach the crossbar. It's not like watching a volley fly into a top corner or a mazy dribble around 5 or 6 players.

The trajectory of the ball started out wide, but curved in, The flight of the ball was amazing. I suppose different people see different things.

It is a tremendous goal. Whether he hit it as hard as he could or not, he knew exactly what he was doing.

In answer to the original question..
Schick for sure. Bigger stage, further out and just better all round.

[bencher]

The absolute embarrassment of the goalkeeper David Marshall who ends up tangled in the net on the floor adds quite a bit to the goal in my opinion. A brilliant goal by Schick. I do wonder if he'll spend the rest of his career trying to live up to that goal though. A bit like Kasami.

[Bassey the warrior]

Schick's was further out, also he curls it as well as chipping it.
