King Eric: 20 years to the day since that goal and pose...

Stoke City - Manchester United live

Picking up a return pass from Brian McClair after dancing through the midfield, Eric Cantona drove towards the Sunderland goal, evaded a couple more challenges and then placed a perfect chip beyond the grasp of the opposition keeper.

Turning to his adoring Old Trafford crowd, the enigmatic Frenchman lapped up the acclaim in typical fashion.

It was one of those moments that led Manchester United fans to dub him King Eric.
