Yesterday's vote was between 2 spectacular goals from the brilliant left foot of Jorg Albertz. Today, the goals were scored by a left foot that I would argue was even better. The late, great Davie Cooper.
His free kick goal in the 1987 League Cup final against Aberdeen is iconic, but there were 2 other League Cup free kicks every bit as incredible, and here they are.
Free kick 1 is from 1985, the Ibrox second leg of the semi final against Hibs. We were 2-0 down from the first leg, and Rangers got back in the tie thanks to this thunderous free kick. Unfortunately it was the only goal on the night, so we lost on aggregate.
Free kick 2 is from 1978, the last 16 Ibrox first leg against St Mirren. We were 2-0 down early in the second half, holders Rangers looked in big trouble. The fightback was started by this Cooper free kick exocet. We won 3-2 on the night and ended up retaining the trophy.
2 free kicks by a genius. 2 goalkeepers without a hope. Both scored by a Rangers legend.
But which goal was better?
