BREAKING NEWS: Ipswich Town winger Wes Burns wins Goal of the Month award

Wes Burns – IPSWICH TOWN v Coventry City – 2nd December

Wes Burns, a winger for Ipswich Town, is the December Sky Bet Championship Goal of the Month winner.
Burns’ daring, amazing banana shot off the outside of his right boot still surpassed Conor Chaplin’s whipping pass and a five-player move across the Portman Road ground.

Don Goodman, the lead Sky Bet EFL Goal of the Month judge and Sky Sports pundit, stated: “The entire attacking move was worth applauding, but Wes Burns’ finish was unbelievable.” With deliberate cuts inside, he displayed amazing technique to bend the ball beyond the keeper with his outside foot.

For Burns, this was the chance of a lifetime. Though the other nominees in December would have had a chance to win in any other month, this strike has to be regarded as one of the favorites for Goal of the Season due to its creativity and skill.
