Blimey. @andros_townsend has just given @CPFC the lead at @ManCity with the most unbelievable volley. Goal of the season contender folks. See it on @BBCMOTD tonight.

Andros Townsend has already got our Goal of the Season sewn up.

In truth, it might well win the Premier League Goal of the Season too.
Utterly bonkers.
Townsend has been training all his life for this one moment. After 4000 long shots into row Z, he's finally scored a screamer.

10 - 10 of Andros Townsend's 17 Premier League goals have been scored from outside the box. Spectacular. #MCICRY pic.twitter.com/zEhPEJz16Z

'Townsend almost stunned The Etihad into complete silence there...but..you know...

As the ball hit the back of the City net, Android Townsend immediately knew, nothing he would do in his life would surpass that. It was the singular high point of his existence

Townsend's wonder goal ensured that Crystal Palace went into half time in the lead against the reigning Premier League champions.
The Englishman has only ever scored 10 goals for the Eagles since joining from Newcastle United in 2016, and although he's known for finding the back of the net in spectacular ways, Townsend trumped anything he'd ever done before with his strike against Manchester City
