Which got me wondering what are Hibs most powerful goals over the years? Leigh Griffiths against Falkirk in the semi final possibly one ?

I reckon if there was nothing in the way, one of Sauzee’ bullets would still be orbiting the Earth to this day !Quote:

Griffiths free kick against them at Tynie. Absolute raker!
I’m sure Barry Prenderville scored an absolute howitzer at ER back in the late 90s. One of the hardest shots I’ve ever seen.
None of them even come close to the power in a David Zitelli corner kick :greengrin
Sauzees against them . Niemmi’s still looking for it
Gordon Rae away to Dundee Utd late ‘80s. Rocket into the bottom corner in a 1-1 draw.
Joe McBrides first goal versus Celtic in a 2-0 victory at Easter Road in 1970. First time volley which almost took the net away!
Alen Orman’s howitzer at Mordor

Zitelli V AEK
Griffiths winner in the semi against Falkirk. A rocket on a motorbike.
Joe Mcbride free kick at tynie
Same here, great wee player.Quote:

Joe Tortolano against Falkirk at their old, stadium early 90s.
SJM second goal at Darkheid past Plooky Gordon in goals
Ach ! We only wanted him as a benchwarmer anyway

Bobby Duncan v Napoli first goal against Dino Zoff from 25 yards hardest shot I remember . I am saying 25 yards but think most people who were there it seemed to be 35 yards.
Yes a lot of venom in that shot- think it was Tom Hart's first match as owner. Another contender would be John Baxter's freekick against Killie in Bobby Johnstone's first game back at Hibs.Quote:

Very good goal, up there with the best Hibs goals.
I was in the front row of the east stand with a view directly behind him. As soon as he hit it it was in !Quote:

Wow I was just thinking about Hunter's goal, it's one of my favourite goals scored at ER, spoke to Gordon about it years ago, everyone always goes on about his goal at Tinycastle so I think he appreciated someone remembering that one, he did say Neil Orr took the corner which I didn't remember, also don't think any TV cameras at the game, it was an epic comeback if I remember.Quote:

Thunderbolt shot from around 30 yards, what a game that was under the floodlights at the old Easter road, even the Dunbar end full of Hibees.Quote:

Mikey Stewarts 1st time volley from a corner at Easter Rd vs the Dons, absolute belter!
It was too close range to really count, but always loved the way GOC leathered it through Gordon for 2-0 in the unbeatable game.
Absolutely gave it everything. Wellied it.
Zitelli against AEK Athens.
Sauzee had a few , just after watching this …Quote:

I’ve not googled this so possibly beer-impaired mammory….
Did Mikey Stewart not score a peach of a goal in the cup semi at Tynie
versus St Johnstone. He met a corner with a volley into to the top corner. The stadium was in stunned silnce for a split second because it was incredibly quick.
i think this was the game where he then threw up - may have been just after the goals if memory serves.
Erich Schaedler vs San Jose Earthquakes. Rattled in from 25 yards.

Thats the one I was talking about in post 43. Thanks for finding it, reaffirms that it was indeed a belter!Quote:

He was Finnish as a goalkeeper after that one.Quote:

Remember it being an absolute raker.
McGinn away to Ayr
Love a good thread where there is a very liberal approach to checking what other people have already posted.
I my memory serves me right did Gary Deegan not fire a rocket into top corner against Aberdeen at ER?
Damn, not much of a sell on fee there, was hoping for a lot more when he left Villa 😃Quote:

Around 1987, I think the crowd was around the same figure so doubtful that many on here saw it.
Poor technique. Needed to show more identity.Quote:

George Best v Celtic at Easter Road, the goalie ended up in the back of the net
I think that's the game he was throwing-up on the touch-line. (?)Quote:

Absolutely, a screamer. I’ll never forget for it two reasons. Firstly, for the quality of the goal in a terrific game but for a personal moment of panic. A week before the game I got a single tooth denture and when Duncan scored I was standing on the old East terracing. I jumped and shouted in excitement and the denture jumped out of my mouth. When things died down, I asked the guys around me to move so I could search for it, expecting it to be trampled on. Unbelievably it was lying there, completely undamaged. :greengrinQuote:
