Fulham loanee up for League One Goal of the Month after stunning strike for Charlton Athletic

Steven Sessegnon’s stunning goal against Accrington Stanley has been shortlisted for March’s League One Goal of the Month.

The Fulham full-back, on a season-long loan with Charlton Athletic, struck from 35 yards out.

Other contenders for the accolade are Plymouth’s Ryan Hardie for his dinked finish against the Addicks at the start of the month, Derby County’s Haydon Robers (versus Shrewsbury Town) and Cheltenham’s Alfie May (versus Peterborough).

“I’m hoping there is a lot more to come,” said Sessegnon after the Accrington match. “I know I have started late, but better late than never. Hopefully, there is many more to come before the end of the season.

“This is the most games I have played in a season, so I’m very proud of the achievement.

“There are still many games to play until the end of the season. Hopefully, I can keep racking up appearances for this wonderful club.”

Fans are invited to vote for their favourite goal on EFL.com before 5pm on Monday April 10.
