Anthony Knockaert celebrates his goal against Crystal Palace.

Anthony Knockaert's stunning effort in the 2-1 win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park last March has made it into the final of Albion's World Cup of Goals.

The Frenchman saw off competition from the likes of David Lopez, Jose Izquierdo and now Florin Andone to seal his place in the final of the tournament, and will face Sebastien Pocognoli to decide who'll be crowned champion.

Knockaert got 58% of your vote, while Andone's superb solo goal, also against the Eagles, at the Amex in December 2018, was runner-up with 42%.

Fans should look out for the final on the club's official Twitter channel next week.
