Liverpool scored some memorable goals during the 2020/21 season, but which efforts stand out as the best in a dramatic campaign?
The Reds managed to end their season in positive fashion, beating Crystal Palace 2-0 to seal a third-place finish.
It was a wonderful effort from Jurgen Klopp and his depleted squad, who looked like missing out on Champions League football for so long.
As an up-and-down campaign has drifted by, Liverpool have found the net with some sumptuous strikes, some of which will live long in the memory.
Here’s how we’ve ranked the Reds’ 10 best goals of 2020/21.

There is very little confidence from Crystal Palace fans that they will stun Liverpool this weekend, which will come as a relief to Reds supporters.
Jurgen Klopp‘s side picked up a massive win at Burnley on Wednesday night to rise back inside the top four for the first time since the start of February.
It means victory over Palace on Sunday afternoon should all but guarantee Champions League football, with Liverpool finding form at just the right time.
The weekend clash will be Roy Hodgson’s final game in charge of the Eagles, however, and possibly in management, so there is concern that the failed former Reds manager comes back to haunt them one last time.

Alisson Becker’s unexpected, dramatic late winner at West Brom has Jurgen Klopp believing fate is playing a part in Liverpool’s bid for Champions League qualification.
His side went into last weekend knowing three victories would secure a top-four finish which seemed unlikely only a couple of weeks ago.
But with the time almost over at the Hawthorns, it needed the intervention of the Brazil goalkeeper, becoming the first in the club in that position to score, to keep their hopes on track.
However, as they go to Burnley looking to make it seven wins from the last nine and keep their destiny in their own hands heading into the final game of the season at home to Crystal Palace, Klopp will remind his players there is still plenty of work to do.
Has it sunk in yet?
The ending to the West Brom game was straight out of a dream, Alisson‘s last-gasp header was symbolic in so many ways than one and has ensured the Reds travel to Burnley with top-four still in their hands.
Turf Moor has been a happy hunting ground of late for Liverpool, with wins in the last three visits, but the hosts are to be buoyed by the return of 3,500 fans.
It will be a welcome sight to witness the game’s lifeblood make their return in what will, hopefully, prove to be the official cut off for the behind-closed-door tour.
