In English football, the Goal of the Season is an annual competition and award given on BBC's "Match of the Day", in honour of the most spectacular goal scored that season.
 It is typically contested between the winners of the preceding ten Goals of the Month, although the goal can and has come from any game in the regular season, including international qualifiers and friendlies—potentially from the opening league games of the season to the end of the European season UEFA Champions League final.
 In several instances, the goal has come in the final game of the domestic season, the FA Cup Final, the most recent example of which is Steven Gerrard's last minute goal in 2006.
 However, in 1980-81 for example the superb goal scored by Ricky Villa in the FA Cup Final replay for Tottenham Hotspur against Manchester City could not be considered as voting had already taken place.
The 1955 Scottish League Cup Final was played on 22 October 1955, at Hampden Park in Glasgow and was the final of the 10th Scottish League Cup competition.
 The final was contested by Aberdeen and St Mirren.
 Aberdeen won the match 2–1, thanks to a goal by Graham Leggat and an own goal by Jim Mallan.
 The winning goal, scored 11 minutes from the end, was a "wind-assisted cross".
 Aberdeen manager Davie Shaw later admitted that they had been "damn lucky" to win the Cup.
 The match proved to be St Mirren's last appearance in a Scottish League Cup Final until 2010.
The 1994 Football League Cup Final took place on 27 March 1994 at the old Wembley Stadium.
 It was contested between Manchester United and Aston Villa.
 Aston Villa won 3–1, with one goal from Dalian Atkinson and two from Dean Saunders, to claim their fourth League Cup final victory; Manchester United's goal was scored by Mark Hughes, before Andrei Kanchelskis was sent off for handball.
 Manchester United would go on to win both the Premier League and FA Cup that season, the result denying United a domestic treble, while Villa finished 10th in the Premier League.
The 2010 Football League Cup Final was the final match of the 2009–10 Football League Cup, the 50th season of the Football League Cup, a football competition for the 92 teams in the Premier League and The Football League.
 The match, played at Wembley Stadium on 28 February 2010, was won by Manchester United, who beat Aston Villa 2–1.
 Aston Villa took the lead in the fifth minute of the game, via a James Milner penalty kick, but Michael Owen equalised for Manchester United seven minutes later.
 Wayne Rooney, who replaced the injured Owen shortly before half time, scored the winning goal with 16 minutes left to play.
The 1988 Football League Cup Final (also known as the Littlewoods Challenge Cup Final for sponsorship reasons) was an association football match between Luton Town and Arsenal on 24 April 1988 at Wembley Stadium, London.
 It was the final match of the 1987–88 staging of the Football League Cup.
 Luton were making their first League Cup Final appearance, while the competition holders Arsenal were appearing in their fourth final.
Richard Asa Hartford (born 24 October 1950) is a Scottish former football player and coach.
 He started his professional career with West Bromwich Albion.
 His early progress led to a proposed transfer to Leeds United in November 1971, but this collapsed when a medical examination discovered a heart condition.
 Hartford instead moved to Manchester City in 1974.
 He helped City win the 1976 League Cup Final.
 After a brief spell with Nottingham Forest, Hartford moved to Everton in 1979 and then had a second spell with Manchester City.
 After playing for Fort Lauderdale Sun, Hartford scored the winning goal for Norwich City in the 1985 League Cup Final.
The 1975 Football League Cup Final took place on 1 March 1975 at the old Wembley Stadium.
 It was contested between Aston Villa and Norwich City.
 To date it is the only time a major domestic Cup Final that has been played at Wembley Stadium between two clubs where neither were then currently in top-flight football (both teams were however promoted at the end of the season).
 Aston Villa won 1–0, to claim their second League Cup final victory.
 Ray Graydon scored the only goal of the game, following up after goalkeeper Kevin Keelan had saved his penalty onto the post.
The 1978 Football League Cup Final was the eighteenth League Cup final, and was contested between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest.
 The initial match resulted in a 0–0 draw at Wembley Stadium on 18 March 1978.
 The replay was four days later at Old Trafford, and saw John Robertson score from the penalty spot after a foul by Phil Thompson on John O'Hare, which TV replays confirmed was actually outside the penalty area.
 Another refereeing decision caused further controversy when an equalising goal from Liverpool's Terry McDermott was ruled out for handball, despite TV replays again confirming that the decision was wrong, with McDermott controlling the ball not with his arm, but taking it cleanly on his chest before hammering a thunderbolt past future England goalkeeper Chris Woods.
 The contentious 1–0 score-line was enough to win the cup for Forest, who thus became the first club to achieve a League and League Cup double.
James Philip Milner (born 4 January 1986) is an English professional footballer who plays for Premier League club Liverpool.

 George McLean and Jim McLean scored Dundee's goals.
