Lyng's goal on Sunday, better than Mulligan's 2005 effort?

The way the lad burst through what is now Ireland's best defence (since three weeks ago), risking life and limb, with two or three Tyrone defenders homing in, and the quality finish, makes it better in my opinion than Mulligan's goal in 2005. After all Mulligan was isolated when he got possession and sold the same dummy twice to two naive Dublin defenders, and had loads of time to pick his spot,unlike young Lyng.

For the record I think Mulligans goal was better

Mulligans goal reigns supreme. Even before the ball got to Mulligan, it was collected initially by O'Neill...did you see his pick up under pressure. Everything about the goal was class.

Mulligan's was better by a mile, especially since it actually had an impact on the game....Lyng's goal was irrelevant.

great goal by Lyng, but better than Mulligans... don't think so. I actually prefered Pearce O Neil's goal for Cork over Lyng's, a more delicate and precise finish

Nah.  McKeever's for Armagh against Dublin in 2002 was the best ever.

Pearse O'Neills goal was the best of the day.
would agree with Jinxy here.

Lyngs goal wasnt even that good , if the keeper had stood instead of dived (unusual for a tyronie ;) it would have hit him in the chest!

You cannot throw the ball from one hand to the other. Yellow card for Maximus Dickamus
