I thought the shot for the second goal was going comfortably wide. The Lewis deflection seemed to put some weird side-spin on the ball and it curved back in towards goal. It hit the post then hit sullivan which put some freaky back-spin on the ball, which was just spinning at just the right angle to take it back into the net. Had King (or whoever was lurking) touched the ball he should have been given offside as he was offside when the initial shot was taken. However, whether the linesman saw and knew that is something we will never know.
Basically, that's one of the luckiest goals I think I have ever seen in a cup final, in terms of ball physics! That's football, yes, but how can you say that's not good luck?! At that stage in the game did they even deserve to score? They shouldn't even have had the bloody throw-in which led to the goal. > The second one - well, yest, it was unusual, but at least the shot was on > target.

It's not luck, it's football. > _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
