Andros Townsend's Manchester City screamer wins Palace's Goal of the 18/19 Season

Andros Townsend's screamer in Crystal Palace's 3-2 win over Manchester City in December has been named Goal of the Season after a vote by more than 4,000 fans.

Townsend's goal dominated the voting, receiving a whopping 91% of the total cast. It was a stunning volley in a crucial fixture that shocked the Premier League as Palace left the Etihad stadium with three points just before Christmas.

With a few key goals to his own name, club legend Mark Bright was on-hand to present the award - a largely forgone conclusion - to Townsend.

The phenomenal effort previously saw the 27-year-old winger win Goal of the Year for 2018 at the London Football Awards as well as the Premier League's Goal of the Month for December.
