Jack Grealish - ASTON VILLA v Cardiff - April 10

The game looked to be heading for stalemate as the latter stages loomed with the score goalless, but Grealish stepped up to slam home a volley in the 85th minute and snatch all three points for the hosts.

Ruben Neves - WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS v Derby County - April 11

A corner was cleared to the Portuguese midfielder 25 yards from goal and he took a touch to tee himself up for a volley before launching a seemingly impossible, dipping shot into the top corner.

Gavin Massey - Fleetwood Town v WIGAN ATHLETIC - April 21

Not content with a mini scorpion flick to feed the ball neatly into his own path, Massey completed his work of art with an intelligent turn to create space for a crafty low curler.

Jon Nolan - Charlton v SHREWSBURY - May 10

A goal worthy of settling any play-off tie, Nolan slammed home a stunning half-volley from outside the box to help send Shrewsbury to Wembley.

Jack Grimmer - COVENTRY v Exeter - May 28

There is no bigger stage than a play-off final at Wembley, where Grimmer showed all his quality as he bent an unstoppable shot into the corner from the edge of the area.

Barry Bannan - SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY v Millwall - August 22

Millwall partially cleared Adam Reach's cross but it fell to Bannan, who sent a stunning "once-in-a-lifetime" left-footed volley past the goalkeeper from outside the box.

John McGinn - ASTON VILLA v Sheffield Wednesday - September 22

It was an exquisite thigh-high volley from McGinn as he took the dropping ball early. The contact and trajectory were perfect.

Adam Reach - SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY v Leeds - September 28

The first of two incredible strikes in a week from Reach. He picked his spot and hit a dipping effort that hit the far post and settled in the back of the net, much to the bemusement of visiting 'keeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

Adam Reach - SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY v West Bromwich Albion - October 3

Simplicity, power and accuracy combined in a flash of his left foot which arrowed the ball unerringly into the far top corner.
