Now, we look at some goals that better even those brilliant pieces of skills, as we compile our list of the top 5 goals of the year.
#5 Dele Alli vs Crystal Palace
One of the biggest shocks of the Puskas Award this year around was that this sensational goal by the then English teenager did not make its way into the top 10.

Alli’s sensational hit against Crystal Palace in his breakthrough season with Tottenham Hotspur was arguably the best goal in the Premier League last season, and its inclusion in this list is as such unquestionable.
The midfield prodigy controlled the ball with his first touch, lobbed it over his head with his second, turned his body and hit a shot from outside the box that beat the Palace defence and goalkeeper and showed the world exactly how brilliant this player was. An amazing hit from a player brimming with confidence.
