The 2022/23 season has become the highest-scoring campaign in Premier League history, after 33 goals went in on the final day.

Those strikes took the tally across the season to 1,084, beating the previous record of 1,072 set in 2018/19.

Twenty-one goals were needed on the final day to equal the record, and there was a fast start, with seven being scored in the opening 14 minutes of the 10 matches, which all kicked off at the same time.

The record was equalled when Gabriel Jesus scored Arsenal's fourth goal on 58 minutes against Wolverhampton Wanderers with a superb header.

Seconds later, Everton midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure lashed in a stunning strike against AFC Bournemouth, setting a new mark for goals in a season and earning the win that kept the Toffees in the Premier League.
