Steinsson's Goal At Boro

I thought that if a player has a shot/header on target and its deflected that its still their goal unless the player it deflects off makes a move/play towards the ball to steer it goalwards? or something along them lines.

Davies knew nothing about it and the header was on target so i guess thats why its still steinsson's :pardon:

If you listen to Davies on the BBC's media player there is no doubting who is claiming the goal! He talks about sharing his bonus if he reaches 10 prem goals

 

A good summary actually from Davies, both of the game and of the performances of Muamba and Elmander

Can't have been Davies's goal, as surely the 'Caterpiller' celebration would have got its debut?

Traditionally, if the ball hits a team mate, it's their goal. End of story.

 

However if it was very slight, they mightn't 'claim' it.

 

Bottom line is - that was Davies' goal

 

 

The confusion over who will be credited with the goal could not be better summed up than on the waste of space BWFC official website. The match report's first line states Kevin Davies as a goal scorer but the Match Stats right by the side of the report gives the goal to Steinsson!!
