Ex-Sunderland chairman Quinn: Liverpool's Carroll scored goal of the Euros

Former Sunderland chairman Niall Quinn hailed Liverpool striker Andy Carroll as scoring the goal of the Euros so far.

Quinn wrote in the Telegraph: "When Carroll scored that header against Sweden, I was delighted. For me, that was as good a goal as we have seen at this tournament. People talk about Zlatan Ibrahimovic's swivel volley against France, but Carroll's was every bit as difficult.

"Heading the ball like that, with that amount of power when you are so far off the ground, is a skill as hard as any other to master. Andy does it as well as anyone.
