THE LIST: Greatest last-gasp goals in the history of British football - 50-41
HAVE YOUR SAY... What is your favourite last-gasp goal? They are the reason why we stay on to the bitter end at football grounds around Britain. Seeing your team snatch a late win or point with a last-gasp goal is a brilliant feeling - but which is your No 1 from down the years? TELL US WHAT YOU THINK Arsenal return to Liverpool on Sunday, 20 years after Michael Thomas' unforgettable - and unbelievable - injury-time strike at Anfield. [LNB]Needing to win by two goals or more to snatch the title from the grasp of the Merseysiders, Thomas found the net deep into stoppage time to secure an incredible 2-0 triumph and leave their rivals stunned. [LNB]Even to this day it is considered one of the most dramatic moments in the history of the game.[LNB]Yet, there have been countless other last-gasp goals that have rocked the game and made a mockery of those who leave their seats early to beat the traffic. [LNB]In the latest edition of the List, Sportsmail runs through the greatest last-gasp goals in British football. [LNB]Each of the goals we have selected - coming in the dying stages or deep into extra time - were defining, and often for both sides involved. [LNB]But most importantly, they made us scream, shout, laugh or cry - and that's what the game is all about. [LNB]So, sit back and enjoy today's selection counting down to the final 10 on Friday. And don't forget to tell us your favourite by posting a message below.[LNB] No 50: Paul Stalteri (West Ham v TOTTENHAM, 2007)West Ham were 10 points off safety in the Premier League and thought they had won three points with Bobby Zamora's 88th-minute header in a highly-charged London derby.[LNB] Enlarge Destruction derby: Paul Stalteri pokes home against West Ham at Upton Park[LNB]But Dimitar Berbatov equalized late on and five minutes into injury time, Spurs broke from a West Ham corner and Stalteri stole the game 4-3 to break the Hammer's hearts. [LNB][LNB] No 49: Iain Dunn (HUDDERSFIELD v Lincoln, 1994)To the glamour of the Auto Windscreen Shield for this last-gasp strike and a landmark in British football as it was the first golden goal to settle a Cup game.[LNB]The match finished 3-2 but it was all in vain for Town as they went on to lose the final against Cardiff on penalties. [LNB]No 48: Ashley Young (Everton v ASTON VILLA, 2008)Goodison Park was still celebrating Joleon Lescott's incredible overhead kick to draw the sides level in time added on when this tumultuous game took its final twist.[LNB][LNB]Martin Larsson nicked a ball to Young who skipped past Lescott and the Villa forward finished expertly to win the game in the 94th-minute for the Villans 3-2. [LNB] Arm-ful: Ashley Young wheels away after his sensational goal[LNB]No 47: Diomansy Kamara (Manchester City v FULHAM, 2008)Fulham were second-bottom and six points off safety going into the clash with Sven-Goran Eriksson's Manchester City and were two-down inside 25 minutes. Bad times.[LNB][LNB]However the Cottagers overturned the deficit and breathed life into a season that looked destined to end in relegation from the Premier League after Murphy delivered a delightful pass down the left to Kamara who smashed past Joe Hart.[LNB] Enlarge Saviour: Diomansy Kamara scores the winning goal at Manchester City[LNB]No 46: Oliver Bierhoff (Czech Republic v GERMANY, 1996) Not a game involving one of our clubs but a first on British soil - a golden goal decided the fate of an international tournament as Germany became European Champions.[LNB]Bierhoff sealed the German's third European crown in dramatic style after coming on as sub he scored both goals in the 2-1 win, including his turn and shot that the 'keeper let slip through his fingers to win the game. [LNB][LNB]No 45: Federico Macheda (MANCHESTER UNITED v Aston Villa, 2009)United were battling for the title and it looked like they would have to settle for a point after two goals from Cristiano Ronaldo were cancelled out by strikes from Gabriel Agbonlahor and John Carew.[LNB][LNB]But three minutes into time added on, up popped the 17-year-old Italian with a turn and shot to rifle the Reds to a 3-2 victory and back to the top of the league. [LNB] Young gun: Federico Macheda brust on to the scene with his late, late goal[LNB]No 44: Aaron Lennon (Arsenal v TOTTENHAM, 2008)Tottenham were in disarray after picking up just two points from their opening eight games. The sacking of Juande Ramos and appointment of Harry Redknapp had brought the club one victory against Bolton but they then faced Arsenal in what was an unforgettable north London Premier League derby.[LNB]David Bentley had given Spurs the lead but the game went Arsenal's way after that and with two minutes left it was 4-2.[LNB] Flying high: Aaron Lennon enjoys upsetting Tottenham's neighbours[LNB]Jermaine Jenas pulled a goal back to make it 4-3 and then four minutesinto time added on Luka Modric's shot cannoned off the post and Lennonslid the rebound home. The game finished 4-4![LNB]No 43: Darius Henderson (Bristol City v SHEFFIELD UNITED, 2009)Alvaro Saborio must have thought he had won Bristol a point after his equaliser five minutes into stoppage time in the recent but Darius Henderson was having none of it. [LNB]Six minutes into time added on Henderson completed his hat-trick when he coolly finished from a narrow angle after Stephen Quinn's pass to snatch all three points in the 3-2 victory.[LNB]No 42: Dan Gosling (EVERTON v Liverpool, 2009)What do you mean you missed this? OK, so an ITV blunder meant that much of the country missed Gosling's 118th-minute FA Cup fourth round winner against Liverpool but it has certainly been replayed a few times since.[LNB][LNB]Gosling's step past a couple of defenders and deflected prod past Pepe Reina earned David Moyes's victory in the 211th Merseyside derby and was Everton's first win against one of the top four in almost two years.[LNB] Birth of a hero: Dan Gosling breaks Liverpool hearts in extra time[LNB]No 41: John O'Shea (Liverpool v MANCHESTER UNITED, 2007)An injury-time winner in arguably the most hotly-contested derby doesn't come about too often, added to that you're into the final stages of a Premier League season and John O'Shea's late winner was dramatic to say the least.[LNB][LNB]Cristiano Ronaldo's driven freekick from the edge of the area was well saved by Reina but O'Shea was there to scoop the ball into the roof of the net.[LNB]Cue daft jig on the touchline from Sir Alex.
