Henrikh Mkhitaryan wins Man Utd’s April ‘Goal of the Month’ award

Henrikh Mkhitaryan has won yet another Goal of the Month accolade at Manchester United, following his strike at Sunderland in April, the club’s official website informs. 

The Armenian’s solo goal helped the Reds earn a 3-0 win at the Stadium of Light and it finished above closest rivals Marcus Rashford (against Anderlecht – 17%) and Matthew Olosunde (against Real Salt Lake – 14%) in our poll, by amassing 32 per cent of the vote. Zak Dearnley and Callum Gribbin were also nominated.

Remarkably, it means Mkhitaryan has landed the prize for the fourth time in the last five months. His scorpion kick, also against Sunderland, won in December; a breakaway effort in the Emirates FA Cup triumph over Wigan Athletic came out on top in January and, in February, his belter past Leicester City’s Kasper Schmeichel was voted best goal.
