Ten Years of Deadly Accuracy

BLOG_AU — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 04:09:56 GMT

Every goal changes a match.

Some goals are works of art. Some simply make a statement. Some are just scored at the perfect time.

Over the past five weeks, we've selected our favourite T-90 goals for their style, execution, and importance.

1# - Wayne Rooney quickly demonstrated that his lofty price tag was always going to be an investment, capping of a wonder-debut performance with a hat-trick at Old Trafford.

#2 - In the Italian season curtain raiser, and a match characterised by Inter's dogged determination, Figo's nerveless extra time free kick was the game's telling moment of class.

#3 The Anfield faithful craved a new striking hero and, in front of the home fans, in a heavyweight Premier League match against the Blues, Torres delivered in emphatic style.

#4 - Deep into injury time, Barcelona were going out of Europe. That was until the ball broke to Andres Iniesta and he spanked it into the top corner to send the Catalans through to the final.

#5 - Federico Macheda's sublime turn and shot snatched three vital championship-winning points for United. Some players don't have to dream about last minute winners.
