Sheffield Wednesday goalkeeper Mark Crossley says scoring against
Southampton will be a highlight in his career.
The on-loan Fulham custodian earned The Owls a point in injury time
when he headed home his first senior goal to claim a 3-3 draw with
The Saints at Hillsborough.
The former Nottingham Forest and Middlesbrough keeper admitted he
physically struggled just to get into the Southampton box for the
corner.
"I'm only 70 per cent fit, I've had a tight hamstring for a while
now," Crossley admitted to Sky Sports News.
"It was pulling as I was running down (to the other goal), it was
so tight. But I thought 'I'm on my way now, so I might as well
go'.
"I just ignored everybody, went into the box, and got on the end of
it.
"I've not stopped laughing about since, then I think that caps
everything (in my career).
"A few good things have happened to me. I saved a penalty in an FA
Cup final and I saved another one from Matt Le Tissier.
"Those are two highlights of my career, but I think that (goal) has
topped it off.
"Jimmy Glass was famous for keeping Carlisle in the league for
doing it, so it's a great feeling."
The 37-year-old says her would consider trying to find the
scoresheet in a similar fashion again.
"It was that feeling that I got (on Saturday), that buzz," Crossley
added.
"You're running back to goal, and 25,000 fans are singing your
name, so it certainly sends a shiver down your spine.
"I won't mind it happening again."
