Vote for Manu Lanzini's stunning Spurs strike to win a London Football Award!

Manuel Lanzini celebrates scoring at Tottenham

 

West Ham United supporters can vote for Manuel Lanzini's stunning last-minute strike at Tottenham Hotspur to win the Football Goal of the Season category at the 2020/21 London Football Awards!

Lanzini's last-gasp leveller in north London helped the Hammers secure an unlikely 3-3 draw on 18 October 2020, having been 3-0 down with less than ten minutes of normal time remaining.

The No10's perfect-placed shot is one of two outstanding Claret and Blue strikes are among the five shooting for the Goal of the Season award –  Sébastian Haller’s acrobatic overhead against Crystal Palace at London Stadium in December is also shortlisted.

Voting closes on 22 April, with the winner being announced five days later.

Declan Rice, Tomáš Souček, Łukasz Fabiański and manager David Moyes have also been shortlisted in other categories.

The nominations are recognition of the fine year the Club enjoyed under the guidance of Moyes, who has been nominated for the Manager of the Year award after guiding his squad to fifth in the Premier League.

The Scot is shortlisted alongside fellow Premier League bosses Scott Parker – a former West Ham midfielder – of Fulham and Roy Hodgson of Crystal Palace, Thomas Frank of EFL Championship promotion-chasers Brentford and Emma Hayes, who has led Chelsea Women to the top of the FA Women’s Super League and FA Women’s League Cup glory.

Rice and Souček, whose midfield partnership has been key to the West Ham’s improvement over the past 12 months, have both been nominated for the Premier League Player of the Year award alongside Tottenham Hotspur pair Harry Kane and Heung-min Son and Chelsea’s Mason Mount.

Rice, who has captained the Hammers on the pitch for much of the campaign, is also named in the Young Player of the Year category alongside his close friend and fellow England international Mount, Arsenal duo Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe and Chelsea’s Reece James.

Elsewhere, former West Ham midfielder Jobi McAnuff is shortlisted for the EFL Player of the Year award at the age of 39 following an impressive season with League Two club Leyton Orient.
