# Crystal Palace: Fans react as Andros Townsend goal against Manchester City wins club vote

**The results were recently published by [Crystal Palace](https://twitter.com/CPFC/status/1267756380456443905?s=20) for the ‘Best goal since CPFC 2010 bought the club’ and the winner of the vote has divided a lot of Palace fans.**

Andros Townsend’s incredible volley from outside the box against Manchester City back in December 2018 as Crystal Palace went on to secure a shock [3-2 victory](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46576166) at the Etihad was announced as the winner, with good reason as it was also named as Premier League goal of the season [last campaign,](https://www.premierleague.com/video/single/1223765) and some fans have expressed their joy that this goal won.

However, others debated whether a certain goal by Darren Ambrose should have won the vote. That absolute screamer was back in 2011 when the Eagles were still in the Championship and they had a tough away trip to reigning Premier League champions Manchester United in the League Cup, via [BBC Sport.](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/15850177) The London side’s first goal was a venomous strike from Ambrose which sailed into the top corner the the Eagles would eventually go on to win the match 2-1.

Here is what these fans said following the tweet:
