Your most favourite - greatest bit of football commentary?

Commentators, those who add the soundtrack to the defining moments of the beautiful game - As much as anyone can remember a stunning goal - or a sublime bit of skill, 9 times out of 10 they remember the words that described it.

So this thread is about your favourite - and most iconic commentary moments.

Here's mine:

May 26th 1999 - Manchester United's amazing comeback in the European Champions League Final:

Clive Tyldesley: "Corner in from Beckham, in towards Sheringham .. AND SOLSKJAER HAS WON IT!, Manchester United have reached the promised land!"

FA Cup Semi final - Villa Park 1999, Man Utd V Arsenal Ryan Giggs' wonder goal.

Martin Tyler: "Weary one from Vieira, Giggs, past dixon, past Keown, it's a WONDERFUL RUN FROM GIGGS!!"

EURO96 Group stage - England V Holland;

Barry Davies "Gascoigne, Anderton, Shearer ... SHERINGHAM - It's four!"

from last year...I'm convinced it would have gone down as one of those famous quotes had united won the treble. as it is, it'll probably be forgotten, but anyway
"Macheda with a turn...WHAT A MOMENT! The 17 year old has won it for United!"

The Italian Sky commentary from the World Cup semi final against Germany.
When the Italians won, the commentators went off their head shouting "ANDIAMO A BERLINO, ANDIAMO A BERLINO", etc.
Translation: We're going to Berlin.
Was hilarious at the time.

FIFA? I tried looking for the actual call and I can't find it anywhere.

It was from another commentator actually and was for the same goal. I can't seem to find it as well online, but I'm damn sure about it.
