Goal No.1
Outside right foot flicked into the back of the net, through the goal keeper's legs.

Goal No.2
Punted towards goal, caught goal keeper wrong footed.

Goal No.3
Shot and saved by keeper, but not held. Ball comes rolling back to my feet, under pressure from two defenders. Manage to keep possession and blast it into the top right hand corner. Cue manic celebrations!

That all sounds fabulous.
Do you have any more details from this match? Were there any other goals? Your sports reports are a wonder and I'd hate to be only enjoying an abridged version.
