Sinclair, the timing to take the cross out of the air is incredible. Zlatan had a lofty, poorly punched ball floating in the air from Hart. I also think Zlatan had more time to think.
Zlatan goal is much better, for so many reasons:

1) much further away from the goal net
2) he was not facing the goal
3) not even thinking that he was going to shoot at goal (super kick out of instinct)
4) the ball was not crossed or passed to him, it was being cleared and flew on top of his head
5) the ball curved and fell straight into the net!!

I agree. He was going after the ball even before Joe Hart got it and then instinctively knew where the England players were and knew he had to act fast to get it into the goal.
Zlatan, because although he had an open net he was over 30 yards out and he's not directly in front.

Zlatan's by a mile. Sinclair's is good, just like any bicycle kick, but Zlatan's was insane cause he jumped almost 2 feet in the air to meet it, from a hell of a distance, and it was on an angle too. No contest in my opinion.

I'd say Sinclair's is a bit better, just because Ibrahimovic's was in a friendly game in which he had already scored thrice (he took no real risk, even if he failed it would have been fine)

Sinclair by a mile. Zlatan's goal is amazing, but it's more of a lob into an empty net.

zlatan is the best
