The Lion of Muthurua roars: Victor Wanyama is awarded Goal of the Season!

Victor Wanyama picked up his club Tottenham Hotspur's Goal of the Season for his thunderbolt in the 2-2 draw at Liverpool earlier this year.

Wanyama has claimed the Premier League Goal of the Month for February for his sensational long-distance strike against Liverpool.

The Kenyan's goal drew Tottenham level at 1-1 with 10 minutes remaining at Anfield and sparked a frantic finale, which included a missed penalty and two goals before the spoils were shared at 2-2.

He came out on top of an eight-man shortlist that also included Danilo, Mario Lemina, Jose Izquierdo (twice), Mohamed Salah, Sergio Aguero and Adam Smith.

Wanyama admits the strike was one of the best he has ever scored and says the decision to shoot from a speculative distance was purely instinctive.

'That was one of the best goals I've ever scored,' he said. 'I just reacted before the Liverpool players. 'I thought I'd just let it go because the ball was bouncing and I didn't want to think too much. And I just let it fly.'

Victor Wanyama tweeted:

"What a game to end the season with ,thank you for all the support and for the goal of the season! 🙏🏼 #COYS."

Named Player of the Season by One Hotspur members and official Supporters’ Club members, Jan collected his trophy from Tony Baylis, a One Hotspur member and Season Ticket Holder, in front of the dugouts before the players and coaching staff embarked on a lap of appreciation.

Christian Eriksen was also rewarded for a fine season with the One Hotspur Junior members' Player of the Season award, collecting his prize from One Hotspur Junior member Luke Canning.

Samir El Boustani from our official Lebanon Supporters’ Club was on hand to present the award.

Some players took their children with them on the subsequent lap of appreciation around the outskirts of the Wembley pitch as a hard-fought season came to a happy end under the arch.
