Best ever skill in a Gers game?

[Al khobar-ger]

Madjid Bougherra v Dundee United.
I was going mental in the Copland.

Unbelievable goal and we only had 10 men too

 

[Al khobar-ger]

Big Tams stud in from 6 inches out in the SC final against them

and he nearly missed it too

 

[Scooby]

Big DJ against Ajax back in 73.
Turned the Ajax defence brilliantly.
Wish he had scored, what a goal it would have been.

I was going to post this.

Brilliant quick thinking by Derek, he took out the whole Ajax team with one flick of the ball.

 

[Berrytoon Bear]

Friendly v Clydebank at Kilbowie in 1996. Week before the cup final. Laudrup and Gascoigne were trying to out showboat each other all game. Best one was Laudrup pinging a cross field pass to Gazza who deliberately ran in front of the ball and as it was landing sat on it trapping it perfectly. Outrageous.

 

[Dbbear]

Two moments from Amato spring to mind.

v Celtic assisting Rod Wallace

v Parma (If Durie scores that header that goal would be still talked about today)

I still do not know how he missed! I’ve also never heard a full stadium say FFS in unison when he missed. That was one that came to my mind straight away.

Other one was the Laudrup flick over Leighton which he either scored with or someone else did - that long I can’t remember, I just remember the flick as he was boxed in.

 

[Talktalk]

I feel honoured we got to witness him every week for 4 years.

Every time he killed the ball stone dead no matter how hard or from what height or angle , the day he controlled a ball coming out the Sky with his arse was one of the best pieces of skill I’ve ever witnessed

 

[JFK-1]

Aribo has some hugely impressive footwork.

can someone post this please? The Durie miss I mean.

 

[Calgacus]

Souness v Dunfermline at EE Park, pitch was an absolute quagmire on a soaking wet night. Ian McCall was still with the pars at the time, and was one of 3 players Souness left lying on their arses as he turned the ball one way then the other, before nonchalantly playing a wee pass.
I've never forgotten how easy he made that look, graceful and totally in control.

 

[L_D]

All great posts.

Any mention of Burke's start, full of tricks and a goal. I was absolutely pissed, last 10 minutes?

 

[giogaddi]

On a serious note Amata at Hampden against them in the 1-0 1999. Think it ended in an Albertz shot but was unbelievable the touches and skills from Amato.

Think it was Weighorst he left in his wake. Big diddy had to buy a ticket to get back in.

 

[Luthgibear]

Cooper v Tampere.

 

[Gregco]

The Mols turn against Motherwell. Never really seen any other player even now that could turn a player like he did.

 

[thestag1970]

Coops against Tampere setting up Flecks goal in 1986 for me

 

[TCWNS1872]

Honestly what the f*ck was he doing there

Kanchelskis acting it. Disrespectful as fcuk if you ask me.

 

[Bri RTID]

amato v celtic 99

 

[RobGer]

Kanchelskis acting it. Disrespectful as fcuk if you ask me.

Whether disrespectful he had been joking about he couldn't see Billy Dodds in pen cos he was small - he was looking for him - found him - crossed to him and he scored!! My family were all there from 3yrs up and loved it. I think a lot of great bits of skill are cheeky and maybe disrespectful. Remember the rage when the on loan player Odua from Spurs flicked ball over a 3 div Alloa player

 

[RobGer]

Was it against Celtic that Ted McMinn backheeled a nutmeg from the touchline we roared clapped and laughed it was so good. It might have been the other McStay who was still looking for the ball while play was up at his goal. At least that's the way I remember it!

 

[Helander]

if it counts then it’s this for me

 

[huistrasleftpeg]

Probably posted already, but no harm going in again. Mesmerising.

 

[Toyota blue]

As long as you saw it I don't care how recent. I really just want to look up some of the ones I have either not seen or forgotten.

Sandy Jardine scored a solo goal in that game into our end .
Coops was at the away end.
Just some useless info that somebody might tell me was a lot of shite but it was many many moons ago .

 

[Edmond Dantes]

Stepover chop executed perfectly

I was referring to the daft pirouette, not the game against Ayr.

 

[No not one]

This the first one I thought off. TV doesn’t do it justice. An outstanding bit of skill all the better considering the abuse he was subjected too throughout

 

[Amato1872]

Two moments from Amato spring to mind.

v Celtic assisting Rod Wallace

v Parma (If Durie scores that header that goal would be still talked about today)

 

[bud_light]

Laudrup chipping the ball over the keeper from the goal line

That's the one I was going to say.Right in front of me

 

[Avengers]

Walters at Tynecastle when he did that Cruyff like turn directly from a punt up the park was sublime…

This for me, I was there as a young kid watching that game, next time we were at school we were all trying to practice it. Absolute sublime from MW

 

[RobGer]

Misunderstood - yes that was a joke we laughed at the time cos he was our player and knew him but probably not if an opposing player.

 

[Orangie]

Any time God got the ball

 

[TCWNS1872]

Gordon ‘I’ll chase ma own flick ons’ Durie with a head like a sheriff’s badge for that gilt-edged chance.

Was pig sick after that one.

 

[CooperBlue]

This the first one I thought off. TV doesn’t do it justice. An outstanding bit of skill all the better considering the abuse he was subjected too throughout

I wasn’t at that match but I seen him do it in other games from long cross field passes.

Would’ve loved to have seen Cooper scoring from a corner kick.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Punt from the keeper to Walters at Tynecastle. Managed to control it and turn at the same time with the ball moving in that direction.

Never seen anything like it since.

 

[fmp]

I've never seen that clip before. Zidane would have been proud of that one. Fantastic.

 

[Scaramanga]

Amato in the Parma game just before that cross for Durie who should have scored imo! Was an outrageous piece of skill upto then I thought could only be done in a computer game lol?

You could pick a few Amato moments. I loved when he was on the park, was usually always guaranteed one brilliant of skill that would have the whole stadium oohing and aahing

 

[jimbear]

How recent?
Davy Cooper, Dryburgh cup final.

Unequalled in my opinion.

 

[Jack Flash]

Alec Clelland putting del Piero into the stand after getting the pish taken out of him all game.

 

[JCB64]

Often overlooked because of the brilliance of Coopers goal in the 1979 Dryburgh Cup Final Sandy Jardine scored a magnificent goal in the same game.

John MacDonald's opener wasn't too bad either.

 

[blue barney]

Gazza v Aberdeen

 

[TQ3]

About 34s in. The magnificent bástard showing who the boss is.

 

[bluetonic]

One that always sticks out for me was Mark Walters at Tynecastle that day, Walker kicks it out and Walters on the drop back heels it by the defender and skims the post with a shot, outstanding skill

 

[Glasgowsteve]

Either Amato or something magical by Mols. Third place Negri v Dundee Utd.

 

[Clicker]

Kanchelskis standing on the ball then creating a goal.

Against the mighty Ayr United.

 

[Glasgow Rangers (Sco)]

 

[Kilwinning74]

McCoist overhead kick to win cup against Hibs

 

[jimcornette]

I’m not saying this is the best but in terms of stopping those scumbags I loved this from Aluko.

 

[Braeside58]

How recent?
Davy Cooper, Dryburgh cup final.

This for me

 

[JMCK]

Aribo has some hugely impressive footwork.

One of the best I've seen for us in the box. Incredibly talented.

 

[Muay Bouk]

Jukebox,. Head like a 50 pence piece.

 

[Arminius]

Here’s another one from Super Cooper
