Omar Marmoush was named the winner of Goal of the Season by the Premier League, which also gave an award to Manchester United.

Marmoush was voted as the winner for his remarkable 30-yard effort against Bournemouth this month, his strike dipping into the top-left corner, leaving Kepa Arrizabalaga with no chance.

United finished a dismal Premier League campaign in 15th, but their 2-1 win at City in December was voted as the winner of the Most Improbable Comeback award.

The Red Devils trailed 1-0 win at the Etihad Stadium with two minutes left in normal time, but Amad Diallo won a penalty that Bruno Fernandes converted before the Ivorian displayed superb composure to net the winner two minutes later from a tight angle.

Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martinez won save of the season for his unbelievable reaction stop from Nicolas Dominguez’s header in their December clash with Nottingham Forest.

Martinez instinctively used his left hand to prevent Dominguez’s header from dribbling over the line.

But Liverpool’s Ciamohin Kelleher had no chance to keep out Alexander Isak’s rasping opener in Newcastle United’s 3-3 draw with the Reds at St James’ Park in December, which earned the Swede the Most Powerful Goal prize.

Isak’s shot had an average speed ofΒ 108.94km/h between the ball leaving his foot and crossing the goalline.

As such, it had the fastest average speed of all goals this season that were scored from outside the box and did not have the benefit of a deflection.
