The Kenyan had just come off the bench when he blasted an unstoppable effort from 35 yards out which gave goalkeeper Loris Karius no chance.
It sparked a frenetic finish to a game which ended 2-2, when at one point it had looked to be heading for a 0-0 draw.
Wanyama’s strike has earned him the Premier League’s goal of the month award, which was announced earlier today.
Wanyama’s goal was memorable, and a real rarity where he is concerned, but fans of the team he conceded against are sceptical whether he should have landed the award.
