Goal of the Month – January 2026 Winner: Edwin Gomez-Ruiz (Inter Detroit)

Edwin Gomez-Ruiz has been voted the National Futsal Premier League Goal of the Month winner for January 2026.

The Inter Detroit captain produced a moment of pure quality in Matchweek action against Capital Futsal — a perfectly executed first-time flick over the goalkeeper that showcased technique, awareness, and confidence at the highest level.

Receiving the ball in stride, Gomez-Ruiz made his decision instantly. With the goalkeeper advancing, he lifted a delicate but decisive touch over the top, watching it drop into the net in one fluid motion. It was the type of finish that turns momentum and lifts a team — and one that stood out among nine elite nominees.

After 48 hours of fan voting across NFPL platforms, Gomez-Ruiz’s strike earned the most votes to claim January’s award.

Moments like this are what make futsal special — split-second decisions, elite execution, and the courage to try something different under pressure.

Congratulations to Edwin Gomez-Ruiz and Inter Detroit on January’s Goal of the Month honors.
