Your favourite deflected goal?

Following on from Nordi’s today. I always find them a pretty satisfying way to win a game.

Craig Russell for me December 1996 against Chelsea at Roker.

His shot was headed for the North Sea before a huge deflection took it over the keeper to begin a lovely 3-0 win.

Many others?
 

Not for us but I can’t get the Norwich goal in the 1985 Milk Cup Final against us out of my head.

Andy Johnson's hideous deflected goal against us at Selhurst in the playoffs for me. Went past Poom in slow motion (he had a rare mare that night)

As for goals for us, that weird OG West Brom scored to win it for us at their place in our 15 point season. From memory, one of their players tackled ours, and then it deflected onto another one of their players and went in. Only way we were going to win a game :lol:

Can only be the beach ball unless there’s one off a land mine I’ve forgotten about
