Eberechi Eze’s solo strike against Sheffield United has been voted as best Crystal Palace Goal of the Season.
The 22-year-old amassed 48 percent of the total votes to see off competition from Christian Benteke and Jean-Philippe Mateta.
Eze dribbled his way past several defenders before slotting home what was Palace’s second goal from the edge of the box.
Crystal Palace won the match 2-0 and the strike was nominated for the club’s Goal of the Month and Premier League Goal of the Month prizes.
“Palace fans, thank you so, so much for your support and votes this season. I love you guys so much and it’s greatly appreciated, man. God bless you all,” Eze told.
Eze had a fantastic debut season in the Premier League following his switch from Queens Park Rangers last year, as he managed four goals and six assists in 34 matches.
Although, the forward picked up an injury towards the end of the season and faces being out for at least six months following a freak training incident.
He injured his Achilles after making a sharp turn in training and went down without a challenge.
The player of Nigerian descent, who represented England at Under 20 and Under 21 level is still eligible to play for the Super Eagles as he is yet to make his senior debut for the Three Lions.
Gernot Rohr hopes Eze will decide to switch to the West African side soon, having described him as one of the best offensive midfielders he has seen in England.
