Definite goal.

No goal. The whole ball didn't cross the line. The commentatotrs should know better and are just trying to save face.
Not sure you can tell. Don't mistake a gap between the ball and the line as an indicator of a goal. It's not. That gap can exist and the whole of the ball NOT be over the line. The only angle to make a definitive decision is the one from the above and the Sky cameras have showed that it wasn't as 'obvious' from that angle. I reckon there might be millimetres in it either way.

Can I just add to the above, those pictures are taken.from a bad angle. The side-on view level the goal line doesn't show the whole ball crossing the line.

No goal for me, evidence inconclusive, have to be 100% sure

Unfortunate, Gordon only took three quarters of an hour to turn, after his first touch.

would need to see a pic from side on but from that angle and pics provided that was a goal

The other shot from side on suggested the ball had not crossed the line entirely.
It doesn't look "several inches above the ground" to me.

Definite goal, but sod it, we deserve some luck to go our way at the moment for a change.

If the same had happened to us you'd all be saying it's a definite goal, so stop being a bunch of hypocritical *******s, it was a goal, we got away with it, let's move on.

GOAL - and because of that a point is very good tonight!

The sideways view suggested the whole ball had not crossed the line. I don't feel hypocritical.
