Whilst there’s no doubt the second was a howitzer of epic proportions, the more often I see the first makes me think it was a creation of exquisite beauty.

Agree the second was more spectacular, but the first more of a Potter inspired team (Albion) goal.

Quality over quantity
If it wasn't for Mwepu's absolutely sublime little flick for Mac's second I would have voted for his first.
Both of the goals got me to my feat while releasing a very high pitched wail though

Bumley.
Without that it would have ruined our summer holiday.

when i look at each goal i see more and more in them. Study Mwepu as he makes that backheel- facing completely away from Ali Mac,its inch perfect, and the way he jumps round to check it went where he wanted it to go-no luck enviolved at all, the strike itself, its a thing of beauty
On the first goal, first viewing it looked like Ali Mac had stumbled and the ball hit his foot and somehow went in, but from different angles he stumbled after the strike, the build up play, and watching Everton running left and right trying to find the ball was just poetry
I cant decide which is best-two cracking goals from open play, great skill and vision evident from multiple players and the sheer joy on Brightons players faces and the abject "wtf" just happened look on Evertons was just class-

The first looked nice, was a great flowing move from side to side, a knock down (up) and a clever finish BUT for me Everton were asleep so it was a bit of an unchallenged move. Great goal nonetheless.
The 2nd was during a ding-dong period…Everton with their tails up and took a brave piece of attacking to go for the jugular when we could. BDB being a catalyst in the move with some aggressive, high defending (CB pressing to win the ball in their half), good positive pass to Tross and assist of the season from Mweps. My fav goal of the season so far.
