Man of the Match explained

5 Jul 2019

Through the 2024/25 Premier League season, football fans around the world are able to pick their Man of the Match.

Through the Premier League website and mobile app, fans can vote for the top player after every Premier League match-up. 

What is the Man of the Match award?

The Man of the Match award is given to the player who fans think gave the best performance on the pitch for each Premier League match. 

Where can I vote?

Fans can vote either on the Premier League website or mobile app, which is available for Android and iOS. Each fixture page will have a Man of the Match section allowing fans to cast their vote. 

How does the voting work?

After the final whistle, tap the “Vote Now” button that appears on the fixture page. Select a player from a shortlist of the top five players from each club, based on Fantasy Premier League Bonus Points, by tapping their icon. 

When does voting open and close?

Voting opens straight away after the match ends and closes 15 minutes later. The winner is the player with the most votes. 

How do I find out the winner?

The Man of the Match is crowned as soon as voting closes. The winner will feature on the fixture page, with selected winners also being announced on Premier League social media channels.
