Ex-Spurs Player Gareth Bale

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I'm comparing them based on the goals, not the occasion. Quite similar goals. For me though Sinclair's was better - and his was hit from outside the box.

Why discount relevant factors like that? It makes a difference that it was in a CL final with the opposition desperate to stop you, the world watching, all those nerves, and against top opposition. In comparision Sinclair's goal was against a team who got relegated that season, crap defence, goalkeeper, and they were already losing the game. Bale's goal was just much harder to score for all those reasons. But in my view, if you ignore all that and look at the technical aspects, both goals were good but Sinclairs was a simpler goal to score because of the loop of the ball and positioning and so he was able to get a straight hit on it, and the ball just left his foot in basically a straight line. Great goal, not saying otherwise, but Bale's it was not so easy technically because of the tradjectory, speed, positoning etc. Maybe I'm wrong but to my eye it looks a much harder shot to pull off. In fact, had he hit it like Sinclair, in a straight line, the goalkeeper would have had a chance to save it.

Does anyone know where/how to find the digital voucher for the official online shop that was supposed to come with membership renewals this year? Can't see anything in emails.

EDIT

Ignore - vouchers haven't been sent out yet. Starting end of September according to Ask Spurs.
