I have, Blackburn game one year.

EStaffs90 · 07/12/13 - 01:30

Yes - Ryan Giggs vs the United Arab Emirates during London 2012.

big brother 9 · 07/12/13 - 03:36

Yes. Probably about a hundred times

Sabre92 · 07/12/13 - 03:39

What's a header?

eugenespeed · 07/12/13 - 05:09

Yes, quite a few times.

Now this is the kind of thread I can enthuse over.

Jim De Ville · 07/12/13 - 06:31

Terrific thread.

Danny Welbeck nearly scored one, on Wednesday.

I almost soiled myself.

rfonzo · 07/12/13 - 06:59

Yes Van Nistelrooy against Deportivo La Coruna.

I Also Remember Seeing A Player Score Two In One Game. He Was Scottish I Think LOL

Tel69 · 07/12/13 - 17:45

I saw the greatest striker who ever lived score a header on Wednesday. It was sick

SJ_Mental · 07/12/13 - 18:02

I saw Ian Rush score with his nose once, Does that count?

When Heidar Helguson played for Watford it was a surprise if he missed a chance with his head!

Same with Tommy Mooney...

That may have been Duncan Ferguson. I believe he went to jail.

This thread, WTF?

alanrollins · 09/12/13 - 12:12

It is a send up of TerryM22s thread on Moyes.

Perhaps your comment is better directed in there.

Yes I've seen it happen a number of times and what's more I also did it myself. I was about twelve at the time. I was stood close to the right hand edge of the six yard box. It was a right wing corner. Not sure of the exact sequence but I think I took a few steps forward and turned my head slightly to the left. Bang! The incoming ball, travelling at at a rate of knots, struck me on the left temple and was deflected back and upwards into the top right corner of the goal.

I've Seen It Said That A Header And Then A Left Foot Goal And Then A Right Foot Goal Is Called A PERFECT HAT-TRICK But That Isn't True As You Could Improve It With A Backflip Lol

Pascal Cygan once scored two headers in the same game for Arsenal (and they weren't og's)

Jim De Ville · 09/12/13 - 17:47

If I remember correctly, weren't headers invented by Brian Kidd, back in the 60's?

jrmswfc · 09/12/13 - 18:20

I've seen Carlton Palmer score a header from 20 yards. I've also seen him score an own goal with a header from a similar distance. Strangest of all, I've seen him score with a header for England.
