The move for Newcastle’s first began when Beckham gave the ball away to Ginola. He danced past Gary Neville, withstood the barging of Beckham and passed to Ferdinand, whose shot was deflected for a corner. Ginola took it, Shearer outjumped the defence and Peacock headed down towards goal. Irwin scooped the ball away from beneath the bar, but, as television technology was to prove, referee Dunn rightly ruled that it had crossed the goal-line. The inevitable arguments led to Schmeichel’s booking, but, although a Cantona free kick was to float alarmingly close to Srnicek’s own bar, on the half-hour Ginola was to score a sublime second goal, and there was not a semblance of doubt about its quality or its merit. Ginola turned on the left-hand edge of the penalty box and, with his right foot, hit the ball across Schmeichel, angled and arrowed for the inside of the far post.

@Masson1903 The typical modern day sky sports football fan. “fail” version? Do us a favour and fuck off.
Its a shame Newcastle beat Man u in the wrong season!!
no wonder schmeichel was crap this game with the giand purple suit hes got on…
BEAUTIFUL!
@Masson1903 yeah you’re right, Ginola’s goal is a fail. fuck up you tube
sorry but the 2nd goal looks like a fail version of henrys goal vs united when he chipped it up to the side (whilst holding off a defender) and curled it on the volley into the top corner. however, his goal was one of the best ever so oh well
56 Man u fans obviously watch for there team flaws and realise afterwards they were just outclassed that night
