Sheehan Strike Nominated For Award

Sheehan goal celebration Burton

Josh Sheehan’s thunderbolt at Burton has been nominated for the Sky Bet League One Goal of the Month award for March.

The Wanderers’ midfielder thumped home a superb first-time strike from almost 30 yards to help the Whites to a first ever win at the Pirelli Stadium.

Sheehan’s strike is one of four goals short-listed for the March prize, along with efforts from Leyton Orient’s Jordan Brown, Chris Martin of Bristol Rovers (against Wanderers) and Davis Keillor-Dunn of Barnsley.

Selecting Sheehan's goal as one of the final four, the Sky Bet nomination reads: “If Aaron Morley’s free-kick didn’t find its target, Sheehan’s follow-up most certainly did, struck with absolute conviction and with a follow-through that he was still finishing as the ball flew in."

Fans can vote HERE for Sheehan’s goal with supporters' votes to be combined with the choices from a panel comprising Sky Sports’ EFL experts Don Goodman and David Prutton to determine the winner. 

Voting closes at 5pm Monday, 14th April.
