FA Cup final: Who scored the best goal?

[BBC Sport]

There's something magical about those seconds before the FA Cup final kicks off. Trumpets and tin-foil trophies, players as tense as the travelling fans, gaffers pacing the dugout in full club suits. The anticipation of a new hero emerging.

Some goals, though, are written in FA Cup folklore, rolled out for every cup final montage - they're the belters, the moments of individual magic, the strikes that sealed shock wins.

I've chosen 10 that make an all-time list and here's a sneak peak at one of them.

Ricky Villa - Tottenham v Man City 1981

At number one on my list it's the beauty and pure adrenaline-fuelled emotion of Ricky Villa, a man who was devastated to have been taken off a few days earlier as Spurs and Manchester City drew 1-1 at Wembley.

Cometh the replay, cometh the bearded Argentine.

With the game tied 2-2 with 14 minutes remaining, and having already netted earlier on, Villa set off on his famous dribble - shorts clinging to his upper quads, hair billowing in the Thursday evening Wembley breeze, Chas & Dave ringing in his ears, skipping through light blue shirts under a floodlit glare and slotting between hapless Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Corrigan's legs.

"I remember getting the ball and my first instinct was to attack," Villa told BBC Radio 5 Live. "As soon as I ran towards the goal I forgot about everyone around me.

"I lost control of the ball just a little before the goal but I shot and I was lucky before I scored. Sometimes you need a little luck and this is what happened.

"It changed my life in the English league."
