The number two slot goes to the second and final Manchester City player on the list, Bernardo Silva.

The goal that took the game away from the home team on the day, Arsenal. Bernardo’s finish was the difference between world class and average footballers.

A goal coming against the run of play was how the winning goal came into play. The reason the goal makes the number two slot is because of Silva’s body positioning and the rocketing finish he hit the 90 with.

To be honest, there’s only few players I’ve seen finish so sublimely. A goal worth all the glory and praise that comes with it.
