3Vincent Kompany! That is a title winning goal from a legend of the game pic.twitter.com/xL1YPMuqfs— Lwis (@ArseLewi) May 6, 2019Given the magnitude of the occasion – not to mention the quality of the strike – it may well prove be the goal of the season and the one that seals back-to-back titles for City, as it proved enough to earn them a 1-0 victory.City now just need to better Liverpool’s result on Sunday to clinch the crown. They face Brighton away, while Liverpool host Wolves at home.Kompany’s moment of brilliance sparked plenty of reaction on Twitter, with many suggesting it proved the 33-year-old was the Premier League’s outstanding defender, not his Liverpool rival Virgil van Dijk, who has been lauded for his performances and leadership this season.Check out some of the reaction to the stunning strike below…

Kompany is the defender Virgil van Dijk aspires to be like. A defender of defenders! My captain — Boss (@Fonskyy) May 6, 2019
Van dijk all hype. Kompany not and proving what takes to be a prem great. Big game player and for me goal of the season. I dislike city but respect where's it due. Take a bow Vincent take a bow.— Foster81 (@Foster8110) May 6, 2019
No disrespect to van Dijk, but he will never reach the level of Vincent Kompany.— Zahraddeen Sani (@Dadeen22) May 6, 2019
I dont think theres a better centre back in the world than a fully fit Vincent Kompany, proper leader— Mark O'Connor (@_markoconnor_) May 6, 2019
If that Vincent Kompany goal stops Liverpool from winning the league, then he deserves a knighthood. Wow.— Ryan. (@Vintage_Utd) May 6, 2019
And people said Van Dijk is the greatest centre back of all time? Hes nowhere near as good as Kompany at his peak and Kompany only just about makes the top 5! And he started as midfield!— Sir Shomes (@shomes11) May 6, 2019
I'd take Vincent Kompany over Virgil Van Dijk seven days a week. Absolute stalwart of the game who has EARNED all the respect he gets. — Dane Massey (@danemassey97) May 6, 2019
Forget Van Dijk, a fully fit Kompany is the BEST defender in the EPL. Everything you want a leader to be & that is exactly why Pep has started him every game in this title run in. #bbcfootball— Herbert karima (@ALBERTOMWANALDO) May 6, 2019
