Two Swans strikes in goal of the tournament
Dan James goal against Brentford and Bersant Celina's strike against Manchester City have both made the shortlist for the FA Cup goal of the tournament with the winner to be announced by the BBC later on this evening.
Fans can vote for their personal choice via the BBC site (link here) with the two excellent goals at the Liberty in the final list of 12 from this year's tournament.
Manchester City won the final this weekend with a comprehensive 6-0 win over Watford but can count themselves lucky to progress that far mainly thanks to the lack of VAR that assisted them with coming from 2-0 down at the Liberty to triumph 3-2.
Meanwhile James goal saw him run almost the length of the pitch against Brentford thanks to an incredible turn of pace that would probably have made Usain Bolt proud.
You can watch each of the goals at the BBC link and make your choice - voting closes at 7pm this evening (20th May)

Swansea City : Grimes misses a penalty in a return to bad old ways An error strewn and tepid Swansea display ensured thousands left the stadium before the staff and players did their usual walk around at this end of season game. It wasn’t a good look as two players received red cards and any effort by the home side was lost in a static and frustrating display.
Gwyn’s Eye View : Swansea City v MillwallGlyn is back with his favourite stats as we build up to the last game of the season. That comes in the form of Millwall who it seems are close to selling their requested 1,148 allocation, so its down to the Jack Army to do their bit this bank holiday weekend.
The fate today’s Swansea footballers would never have to endure Swansea City bring this season to a close on Saturday with a home game against Millwall. However, what about those bygone days when footballers had no choice but to go down the pit after their career ended, or open a toy shop, pub or retrain ? That thought would petrify todays modern footballer.
Brave Swans in memorable game at Carrow Road It was a pulsating game to watch and very much one of my favourite away games of the season. The Swans looked an entirely different side to that we saw at Middlesbrough when it is clear a catalyst for commitment was agreed behind the scenes at Swansea City. To a man every player grafted and
wore the shirt with pride. To see the players really acknowledge the Swans support at Carrow Road this afternoon was emotional.
