A
elated
💡 Explanation:
Ecstatic means experiencing or showing overwhelming happiness or joy. In the context of scoring a first goal, 'elated' (overjoyed/exultantly happy) best captures this intense positive emotion. 'Blissful' suggests peaceful happiness rather than the excited joy of achievement.
