Although goalkeepers have been on the scoresheet more regularly in recent seasons with the trend to go up for late corners and free-kicks, Paul Robinson’s goal for Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend showed how else they can hit the back of the net.

Steve Ogrizovic’s only goal for Coventry City came against Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough on 25 October 1986, after a long punt out of his hands caught the wind and sailed over Martin Hodge at the opposite end.

That game finished 2-2 but the Sky Blues would be back at Hillsborough twice more later in the season, with famous consequences.
