Among them was the winner against bitter rivals Manchester United in an FA Cup semi-final and the sole goal against Stoke City in the final that ended a long City trophy drought. Seydou Keita of Mali and Barcelona came second and Andrew Ayew (son of Ghana Legend Abedi Pele) who plays for Ghana and Olympique Marseille of France came out third.
