Townsend's volley stunned fans and helped to lead the Eagles into their remarkable 3-2 victory over the Citizens - the only blip on Pep Guardiola's men's home record - and led to him winning Goal of the Year for 2018, Premier League Goal of the Month and Palace's Goal of the Season.
Now, as a result of winning Premier League Goal of the Month, Townsend has been nominated alongside the likes of Son Heung-min and Vincent Kompany as a recipient for Carling Goal of the Season.
You can vote for Andros below and the public vote will be combined with a panel of expert's opinions to decide the winner. Voting closes at 5pm on Friday 17th May and the receiver of the award will be announced at midday on Tuesday 21st May.
