Rangers’ best headed goal

Hateley's first touch here was genius. The width made the cross. It almost looks so wrong but it was so smart.
There’s a version on Facebook with English commentary. Big Ron Atkinson is spitting feathers...I’ll try and find it

Edit: found it

 
Can't split McCoist v Leeds and Hateley v sheep title decider. McCoist's is an absolute classic counter attack goal, the quality and power of Hateley's header is unreal.

One of my favourites that I would swear is a fluke.

It looks like McCoist is actually going for the other corner but a mixture of too much Sun-In and his mullet throw his timing off slightly:

Never seen that one before. Bit of a shitter but I guess they all count.
 
Let Ally tell you himself

Was at that game, like many there as time went on my memory of it was DJ was much further out but the power he got into that header was immense. The footage disappeared for years. One of the Glasgow papers I recall, Citizen or Times maybe, had a black and white close up still of the moment of impact, I think it might have won some annual sporting photo award. Have never seen it since but would love to track a copy down.
 
Always going to be a matter of opinion this one. What's not in question is who's goal ment the most to the player and for me that's a no contest. Never mind best goal ,has any player ever shown more sheer elation than that written all over McCoist's coupon that night v Leeds. Too easily forgotten just how much this club means the man. A true Rangers legend.
 
My two favourites are DJ v Berwick in the cup at Berwick and Colin Colin Colin Steins v Hibs to win the league
 

We got battered this night and the big man came up with this! 6.30 in.

A masterclass from Goram that night too!
 
Gazza header vs them. Brings the ball out from our box, then runs the length of the pitch. The desire to bring the ball out and then get on the end of the cross was outstanding.

Two midfield generational talents, one played for us and one is leading us.

Shite being a Rangers fan eh.

Funny how the old memory works.
I always thought it was just outside the 18 yard box but just watched the footage and looks about 15 yards.
Still a great goal though eh?
 
Hateley bullet against Hearts.

One of them had halved him in two a minute before and he dusted himself down and stuck it to them. 3:50 in

Might be wrong but I’m sure Hateley actually chipped the keeper with a header away to the sheep.
McSwegan v Marseille was up there as well tbh!
Was just about to post the mcswegan one. If memory serves me right he bent the header into the top corner
 
McCulloch's v Lyon was a great headed goal.


I think some of the others are considered great, due to the circumstances. (9IAR, beating them, league clincher).

Ally's goal v Leeds is probably my favorite Rangers goal of all-time, but it was as much for the build-up as the finish.
 
Kemar Roofe‘s majestically timed strutting gallop and thumping header against Celtic last season has to be well up there. High quality football porn that one.
