Dominik Szoboszlai has been voted Liverpool’s Goal of the Month for January after his long-range strike in the FA Cup captured the top spot in the club’s fan poll.
The winning effort came during Liverpool FC’s Emirates FA Cup victory over Barnsley FC at Anfield. With the match still in its early stages, Szoboszlai collected the ball roughly 25 yards from goal and unleashed a powerful shot that flew into the top corner, giving the goalkeeper no chance and setting the tone for a 4-1 win.

The Hungarian midfielder’s strike stood out in a month filled with highlight-worthy finishes. In the final voting, his goal edged out the second-place entry from Hugo Ekitike, whose second goal against Newcastle United earned strong support from fans.
Dominik’s been very impactful with Liverpool
Szoboszlai’s impact on the poll did not stop with the winning entry. He also finished third and fifth for his free-kick goals against Olympique de Marseille and AFC Bournemouth, underscoring his growing influence in Liverpool’s attack and his reputation as a set-piece threat.
Fourth place went to Mohamed Salah for his free-kick goal against Qaraba FK in the Champions League, another reminder of the variety of scoring options available to the Red Devils this season. Szoboszlai’s January performances reflect his increasing importance in midfield, particularly in moments when Liverpool need a spark from distance. His ability to score from range adds another dimension to a squad already known for its attacking depth.
For supporters at Anfield and beyond, the FA Cup strike against Barnsley stood above the rest, combining technique, power and timing in a way that defined Liverpool’s month.
