Shaw picks favourite World Cup goal

With a minute to go before half-time, Daley Blind arrowed a sensational diagonal ball towards van Persie, who had timed his run perfectly to get in behind Sergio Ramos and Jordi Alba.

Presented with the opportunity, the striker reacted instinctively, lunging forward to loop his diving header over the bemused Iker Casillas. 

As he high-fived the incoming United boss Louis van Gaal on the touchline, given Blind’s assist, it was very much a goal that was shared by the Reds.
