 So fellow Leeds fans, if you had to pick your top 3 goals scored by us for whatever reason, what would they be and why? For me, 1) Yeboah v Liverpool- A simply awesome strike that i have never ever seen again live before......amazing way to beat the scousers! 2) Viduka v Arsenal- A win would keep us up and stop Arsenal winning the league. To be leading twice at Highbury and then pegged back by Arsenal felt gutting but then on the counter, Simon Johnson gave it to Viduka who curled it in the top corner in the last minuite giving us the win (This was when Arsenal were unbeatable too!) 3) Smith v Lazio- We beat Lazio at a time when Sven was in charge of them and they were good. We were excellent that night and it was great to see Smithy get through and tuck away the goal infront of that huge army of away fans at the Stadio Olympico.

Based on the one's I've seen, as in one's where I was at the game...
Viduka at Highbury...Oh my gosh that was amazing. It meant we definately weren't going to get relegated. The whole Leeds end just went absolutely mental. I'll never forget that.
Smithy against Scum at Old Trafford. In our relegation season. It gave us hope. We didn't win but we didn't lose and that was the point...scum didn't beat us. In order to celebrate with us he had to run up to where the Man Utd fans were sitting in the lower part of the ground..haha.
Choosing just 3 is really hard but I have to include a Killa goal. So it will be his goal vs Charlton at Elland Road. Our final Prem game at Elland Road. I think we were 2-0 up (his was the second..if my memory recalls correctly.) Smithy then scored the third via a pen. Aww Killa's little celebration.

Lee Chapman's against bournemouth to win 2nd division and end years of pain!! mark viduka's 4th against liverpool a few years back, convinced my nephew to support leeds not liverpool, he started as liverpool, but by the end the abuse i gave him changed his mind for the better, he was only 6. Not sure who scored, but first for leeds vs scum at old trafford in late 70's, first time to see them on match of the day, we won 2-0 or 2-1. could have been brian flynn?  it was great!!!!!!!! |

Too many to pick from for just 3! So I'll cheat a bit  Any Yeboah strikes from outside the area e.g. Liverpool, Wimbledon, Monaco etc. Any lost distance free kicks by either Harte or Sterland But my favourite has to Clarke's header to win the FA Cup in 72! |

Can't think of three at the moment, (supposed to be working), but right up there would be Gary McAllisters free kick against Arsenal in the 92/93 season. Smashed from 30 years out on the right straight into the top left corner. Awesome.

Other suggestions very good ,what about also,
Strachan v Leicester 1990 (2-1) thought we were up.
Bremner re Standard Liege 1968(?) 2-0 down on aggregate (both away goals 30 mins to go ) won 3-2 with a goal 3 mins from time.
Bremner re Barca 1975 European Cup semi final first leg
