West Ham’s Andy Carroll has been awarded the Goal of the Month.
The award was a delight for Carroll, who has his goal etched into his memory already.
“I’m delighted to have won the Goal of the Month competition, especially given how good some of the other goals were,” he told West Ham’s official website.
“As soon as I hit it I knew it was in, I got a good connection and knew it would hit the back of the net. It’s definitely the best goal I’ve ever scored, one I’m very proud of.
“I enjoy every goal I score, but that one was certainly a little bit more special – I don’t think I’ll ever get bored of watching that one back.”
Since that strike, Carroll has registered another three in the Premier League, scoring a double against Middlesbrough and finding the net once against Southampton. He now has six goals in 12 league matches.
