Which bicycle kick goal was better, Ibra's or Mexes'?

[veryfatchocobo]

It was about 5 metres further away than Mexes

Though, I do admit I like Mexes's better, but Ibra's just had more impact and umph.

Can I vote for Rivaldo goal vs Valencia?

Despite of Mexes' goal having more importance and having defenders in front of him, I went with Ibra due to the sheer acrobatics he pulled off + the aesthetic side of things.

I really liked how he decided to go for something completely crazy and it worked. He saw an opportunity to try something of that nature, executed the move to nigh perfection while making a well-round calculation of the goalkeepers position -> hook, line, sinker.

Thing is, he was running one direction, stopped, and ran back all before the ball dropped and too far away from him.

Zlatan's bicycle felt nicer to me because:

(1) Novelty factor.
(2) The actual shot itself and the lack of first touch was more appealing.
(3) Quick thinking and improvisation - He saw the opportunity and went for it. Mexes' looked more like a hopeful kick in comparison (which they invariably are).
