fantastic. Obviously great run and finish by Price, and brilliant piece of play by Cascarino. However, for those who never watched God play, watch the  control and direction in his clearance after receiving a tricky ball in the area. He did this all the time, the antithesis of hoof.

A carload of us went down to Highbury that night and I always remember Price missing a chance shortly before that goal prompting our mate who had driven to say "Chris Price will never score as long as he's got a hole in his arse". That quote was thrown back at him all the way home and for quite a while after too.

I agree with you Warsza.

Few goals have been celebrated with the same vigorous joy as that one.

Fantastic work from that big useless lump Cascarino as well. The timing an execution of the pass to a player he couldn't even see was Barcelona-esque.

Cascarino doing a passable impression of a professional footballer there

havent watched the link but the game was live on ITV and the goal had a truly excellent bit of build up by Brian Moore.

(following McGrath clearance with instep of boot) "Cascarino the only one up there in a Villa shirt though. He's getting support from Platt - this could be interesting. PRICE HAS GONE THROUGH FOR VILLA! A GREAT CHANCE FOR VILLLAAA! Chris Price has done it on the breakaway!"

 ;) off the dome.

I adopted Chris Price as my favourite ever player as he was on the first cover of the programme of the first game I went to, when he scored that I think I cried and couldn't run down the stairs quick enough to jump on the old man.

I remember watching that on tv at my mom and dads. We leapt off the sofa when that went in. That shot hit a huge divot on the way in.
