The 10 Latest Goals In Premier League History

Here we take a look at the top 10 latest goals in Premier League history, with plenty of records set to be broken following the recent addition of extended stoppage time, inspired by the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Last season, saw a flurry of late unexpected goals as last season broke the record for the number of goals scored in the 90th minute onwards. The teams have taken advantage of the officiating purpose of adding time on for any inconveniences within the game, with as much as 14 minutes added on at certain intervals.

Since then, the likes of Gabriel Jesus and Leon Bailey have also added their names to this list via goals past the 100-minute mark. Will anybody manage to eclipse the top spot during the 2024/25 season?

Take a look and see which players feature in this top 10 below...

Sheffield United's campaign last season will go on record as one of the worst campaigns in Premier League history, having only recorded 16 points and three victories in the whole season. One of the brighter moments of their season was gaining their first win of the season at home to Wolves thanks to Oliver Norwood.

Cameron Archer opened the scoring in the second half with a brilliant, thumping effort to give the Blades some much-needed positivity before Jean-Richer Bellegarde equalised for the away side. Sheffield United won a penalty late on and Oliver Norwood stepped up late on to send Brammall Lane into a frenzy.

Cole Palmer has had a brilliant season in his first year at Stamford Bridge and on this list, he will be appearing once more as we discuss one of the greatest games in Premier League history when Chelsea faced Manchester United last season at Stamford Bridge.

Palmer, who as a boyhood United fan, already opened his account against Manchester United with a penalty earlier on in the first half to give the Blues a two-goal advantage. Since the penalty, United fought back to take a 3-2 lead at Stamford Bridge, thanks in large part to a brace from Alejandro Garnacho.

With a heap of stoppage time added on, Chelsea won themselves a penalty in the 100th minute of the game, to which Cole Palmer duly dispatched his effort past Andre Onana.

In what was a dramatic and action-packed game, Manchester United were awarded a penalty despite the full-time whistle having already been blown. Neal Maupay gave Brighton the lead with a 40th-minute penalty, but it was a lead that lasted all of three minutes after Lewis Dunk’s own goal.

Marcus Rashford gave United the lead 10 minutes into the second half after a stunning individual effort, and just when it seemed that United were going to leave the Amex with all three points, Solly March’s stoppage-time header levelled the game at 2-2 and United, so close to a first win of the season, seemed resigned to leaving with just a point instead.

But, there was more to come. A Harry Maguire header struck the outstretched hand of Neal Maupay, but referee Chris Kavanagh seemingly missed it and instead blew for full-time. Amidst appeals from United players, Kavanagh was instructed by VAR to take another look at the incident on the pitchside monitor, where he then spotted the infringement and subsequently blew for a penalty.

Because the full-time whistle was blown after the incident and not before, and it had taken place in normal time, the VAR was allowed to check the incident and allow the penalty to be taken irrespective of the full-time whistle that had initially followed the handball. Bruno Fernandes kept his cool to score the winner and what is United’s latest-ever goal in the Premier League era.

When Tottenham hosted Sheffield United on 16th September 2023, many expected the Lilywhites to brush aside the Blades, however, the hosts have a tradition of making things hard for themselves and fell behind to a goal from ex-Coventry City midfielder Gustavo Hamer in the 73rd minute.

Ange Postecoglou’s men looked like a busted flush when heading into injury time, despite eventually racking up 28 shots to Sheffield United’s seven, however, Brazilian striker Richarlison managed to score a header from a corner in the 98th minute, his 50th Premier League goal, seeing him become the third most prolific Brazilian to play in the English top-flight behind Roberto Firmino and Gabriel Jesus.

It looked like Spurs had managed to earn a late point, however, Dejan Kulusevski had other ideas, as the Sweden international was teed up by Richarlison on the edge of the penalty area just moments later and fired in a clinical strike into the top-left-hand corner, leaving Wes Foderingham with no chance and in-turn, sending the home support into raptures.

By scoring this goal, Tottenham managed to seal the latest comeback win when trailing in Premier League history, beating their own record of 95 minutes against Leicester City in January 2022.

Chelsea had made an unconvincing start to life under the management of Andre Villas-Boas, drawing with Stoke and needing a late Florent Malouda goal to beat West Brom in their opening two matches of the 2011/12 season. And the Blues would need further late goals to secure victory in their next match against Norwich.

Chelsea did take an early lead but were eventually pegged back by Grant Holt’s strike just after the hour mark. A Frank Lampard penalty in the 82nd minute restored Chelsea’s lead, but there were 11 minutes of injury time still to play going into the 90th minute following Didier Drogba’s earlier head injury that resulted in a long delay.

And it was in those 11 minutes that debutant Juan Mata got Chelsea’s third, with the Spaniard capitalising on Ritchie De Laet’s error to slot home his first goal for the Blues and only the second-ever Premier League goal scored after 10 additional minutes of stoppage-time.

Staggeringly, Unai Emery’s side trailed the Eagles by a 1-0 scoreline up until the 87th minute, having fallen behind to a 47th-minute goal from ex-Celtic striker, Odsonne Edouard.

The Villans fought back in style, as Jhon Duran buried a thunderous half-volley into the roof of Sam Johnstone’s net following a superb cross from Lucas Digne on the left-hand side, while in the 98th minute, Villa took the lead via a Douglas Luiz penalty after Chris Richards was judged to have fouled Ollie Watkins in the penalty area.

Jamaica international, Bailey, sealed the points for Emery’s men as a precise ball from Moussa Diaby from the left wing was swept into the back of the net by the former-mentioned player to settle the score at 3-1 with a goal that was made in Leverkusen.

Arsenal against Manchester United was a dramatic encounter at the Emirates Stadium on 3rd September 2023, with the two sides meeting for the first time since the Gunners edged a five-goal thriller in North London back in January of the same year thanks to a stoppage-time winner from Eddie Nketiah.

This would be another breathtaking match, as like the previous meeting, Marcus Rashford would give the Red Devils a first-half lead, however, Erik ten Hag’s men would quickly be pegged back following a quick response from Norwegian midfielder Martin Odegaard less than a minute later.

United thought they had found what looked like a late winner by Alejandro Garnacho, however, VAR deemed the Argentina international’s goal to be offside before Declan Rice would send Arsenal fans into raptures as his 96th-minute goal from an Arsenal corner squirmed through Andre Onana’s grasp.

The Gunners weren’t finished there though, as they caught United on the break with virtually the last kick of the game as ten Hag’s men looked for an equaliser, this resulted in ex-Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus being played in on goal while being tracked by Diogo Dalot, who the Brazilian saw off with ease via a fake shot before slotting the ball past a helpless Onana.

During the insanity and the chaos that was the game between Chelsea and Manchester United last season, few would have thought that once Cole Palmer equalised with his second penalty of the game in the 100th minute, the game would have one more stark twist.

Manchester United's hectic and chaotic nature of their performances last season led to conceding many late goals and none were later than Cole Palmer's dagger in the 101st minute of gameplay. United were caught napping from a corner routine and Cole Palmer tried his luck from the edge of the area, which took a huge deflection past Andre Onana, to spark wild celebrations at Stamford Bridge.

This match was seemingly heading for a goalless draw but burst into life after the 90th minute, with not one, but two goals coming as a result of penalties in injury time.

A Jamie Carragher head injury was the cause of the long additional time that was handed out, and it was Jay Spearing who conceded the first spot-kick after his challenge on Cesc Fabregas. Robin Van Persie duly slotted the penalty into the bottom left corner to give the Gunners the lead and set them on course for a late win. And the Dutchman was actually not far off making this list, with his penalty recorded as being scored at 97 minutes and 10 seconds.

However, just four minutes after that Van Persie penalty and following a poor Luis Suarez free-kick, Emmanuel Eboue’s clumsy push on Lucas Leiva whilst the duo were both challenging for the airborne ball saw Liverpool awarded a penalty of their own. Dutchman Dirk Kuyt stepped up and dispatched it with aplomb, with that turning out to be the final kick of the game as the final whistle was blown immediately afterwards.

The Premier League saw a record shattered throughout the season of how many late goals were scored in injury time last season. The goal that has set the benchmark belongs to another Sheffield United player, and that is Oliver McBurnie.

As mentioned earlier on in the piece, Sheffield United had little to shout about last season, but they did provide the Premier League with two incredible moments, and none more so than McBurnie's late equaliser against West Ham United. An injury to West Ham United goalkeeper Alphonse Areola ensured the length of additional time was a considerable amount.

McBurnie was the hero for the Blades in the 103rd minute and provided the latest goal in Premier League history.
