Henrikh Mkhitaryan has claimed the Carling Goal of the Month for December.
The Manchester United midfielder's acrobatic scorpion kick helped his side earn a 3-1 victory over Sunderland on Boxing Day.
It was chosen as the best from a shortlist of eight goals from the combined votes of a panel of experts and the public, who picked their favourite via the Carling Tap and website.
