AFC Bournemouth defender’s effort against Man City tops eight-goal shortlist for August

Charlie Daniels’ breathtaking half-volley against Manchester City has been voted the Carling Goal of the Month for August.

The AFC Bournemouth left-back’s strike in the Matchweek 3 fixture topped a shortlist of eight nominations, which included efforts from Stephen Ward, Aaron Mooy, Marcos Alonso and Sadio Mane.

"All of the lads when I came in said 'have you seen your goal yet? It's unbelievable!'" Daniels says. "I didn't actually see it until a little bit after. It was nice. There were some nice angles."

The winner was chosen from the combined votes of a panel of experts and the public, who picked their favourite via the Carling Tap and Carling website.
