Toffetiam : It’s Daniel Gosling’s Goal! (Sing to You’ll Never Walk Alone)

BY : Biing

When all seems to be heading for a draw and penalties, who could think Everton could nick a goal on the 118th minute from a well composed shot by 19 year old Dan Gosling?  A draw was coming closer even though Everton had the lion share of on-target shots although matched evenly before Lucas’s dismissal.   

A tall order to win the match when Moyes substituted three main players in Pienaar (injury), Fellaini (not effective) and Captain Phil (too defensive); with two youngsters Rodwell, Gosling and “has-been” Van Der Melde. 

But it took a “has-been” pin-point cross and great composure and controlling skills of the receiving Gosling; to curl the winning goal to the bottom right corner of the net. 

Kopites, I am going to rub salt now with this song.  Don’t read/sing if you are not ready.  Mama sorry.  But here it goes, a tribute to Gosling and Everton. 

Andy’s crossed to the box 

Look up high to the skies 

And start to be afraid of a goal. 

At the end comes a boy, there’s a golden chance 

And there’s sweet controlling of the lad. 

Side steps to the left, 

Side steps to the right, 

And your eyes looked on at goal 

* 

Shoot now; shoot now with a curling shot 

Everton scored the GOAL…. 

It’s DANIEL GOSLING’S GOAL
