Mehdi Taremi received nearly 30% of the votes to win UEFA.com Goal of the Season for his stunning overhead kick against Chelsea.
Taremi’s sensational effort came deep into added time of the teams’ UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg, though it was not enough to prevent Porto from being eliminated by the eventual winners.
