OTD E0061 — 31 Dec 1994: “I Was There When Jensen Scored” — and the cult of the unlikely goalscorer

31 Dec 1994: John Jensen scores — and a chant is born: “I was there when Jensen scored.” Arsenal still lose 3–1 to QPR, but the goal becomes folklore. From Jensen to Mascherano’s first Barça goal after 319 games, Tony Hibbert’s “If Hibbert scores, we riot,” and Jimmy Glass’s keeper goal that saves Carlisle — plus “back in the day” icons like Santos Iriarte’s World Cup-final strike in 1930 and Friaça’s opener in the 1950 Maracanazo.
