The 2023 USL Championship season delivered more than 1,150 goals across the regular season and playoffs. Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC’s Albert Dikwa secured the Golden Boot with 20 tallies, while 11 players bagged at least 15 goals in the campaign.

Many of those finishes grabbed the national spotlight, too. In all, almost 50 goals from the USL Championship were featured on ESPN’s Fútbol Americas, while seven more featured on ESPN’s SportsCenter Top 10, including Neco Brett’s memorable No. 1 for Birmingham Legion FC at Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC in August.

That finish is among 32 we’ve selected as the best this year. Now it’s up to you to select the cream of the crop, starting with this week’s group stage. We’ve placed four goals in eight groups, with the winner from each group set to advance to the Semifinals next week.

The Semifinals will consist of two groups of four, with the top two in each advancing to the Final. Voting will launch every Wednesday at 12 p.m. ET, and close at midnight, ET each Sunday. You can vote here each week.
