Goal of the season

As usual, the English premier league reveals the goal of the week every season at the end of it. Goal that was picked was that of Andros Townsend for Crystal Palace against Manchester City in December as the official Goal of the Season.

That goal gave Palace a 3-2 win over the champions. That win came as a surprise to the world, probably one of the wonders of the premier league last season.

“We got a free-kick and the ball’s dropped out of the air.


“I just thought, ‘Yeah, it’s sat up perfectly, I’m going to hit this’.
“I didn’t really know how good a goal it was. Everyone was saying, ‘It was incredible, it was the best goal I’ve ever seen’.
“I just thought it was a volley from outside the box and it’s not until I watched it back, then I thought, ‘Oh wow, maybe that is a bit special,” Townsend said while explaining the goal to Sky Sports.
