This Andy Carroll goal v Palace (GIF VIDEO BELOW) was a moment of absolute quality from the West Ham striker in his side’s home game against the Eagles on January 14, 2017. Carroll’s goal against Palace was a stunning overhead kick from his left boot. It was West Ham’s second goal of the game- they won 3-0.
Poor Palace- they always seem to concede the goal of the season contenders!

Big Sam’s clash against Arsene Wenger goes the way of the Frenchman as Arsenal down Palace at the Emirates. Giroud with a glorious goal- a scorpion kick one!
This Olivier Giroud goal vs Crystal Palace (GIF VIDEO BELOW) was a stunning goal from the Frenchman, later quoted by Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger as one of the “top five goals” in his time with the Gunners. Giroud’s goal v Palace was a great scorpion kick scored on 1 January, 2017- just days after Mkhitaryan scored a similar one, and we get spoilt with two great scorpion kicks in the span of three days. Irony is that Giroud had just missed a sitter from 5 yards out minutes earlier, and then scored this beauty!
