Ex-players insist famous QPR goal was better than Olivier Giroud’s for Arsenal

Embed from Getty Images Olivier Giroud scored a breathtaking goal for Arsenal in their 2-0 win against Crystal Palace on New Year’s Day. But was it a better goal than Trevor Sinclair’s famous overhead kick for QPR against Barnsley in 1997? Not according to Sinclair’s former team-mate Kevin Gallen and R’s legend Rodney Marsh.

I liked Giroud's goal, but there was still an element of luck involved which means it can't qualify as a Trevor Sinclair strike.— Mitch Clarke (@BOOMxMitchx69) January 1, 2017 Think everyone might be getting a little carried away with Giroud's goal,good but not a patch on @trevor8sinclair 's! #AFCvCPFC— Chris Black (@ChrisBlack10) January 1, 2017 Decent goal by Olivier Giroud but I've seen better @trevor8sinclair— ♦GARO♦ (@g_a_zz) January 1, 2017 [related-posts] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); (function() { var referer="";try{if(referer=document.referrer,"undefined"==typeof referer)throw"undefined"}catch(exception){referer=document.location.href,(""==referer||"undefined"==typeof referer)&&(referer=document.URL)}referer=referer.substr(0,700); var rcel = document.createElement("script"); rcel.id = 'rc_' + Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000); rcel.type = 'text/javascript'; rcel.src = "http://trends.revcontent.com/serve.js.php?w=47184&t="+rcel.id+"&c="+(new Date()).getTime()+"&width="+(window.outerWidth || document.documentElement.clientWidth)+"&referer="+referer; rcel.async = true; var rcds = document.getElementById("rcjsload_77c44a"); rcds.appendChild(rcel); })(); [themify_box style="blue rounded" ][themify_icon icon="fa-twitter" ]Follow West London Sport on Twitter [themify_icon icon="fa-facebook-official" ]Find us on Facebook[/themify_box]
