Leeds United striker Joel Piroe has been awarded the Championship Goal of the Month prize for his first strike in the 3-0 away win at Millwall.
Piroe’s goal, which came at the end of a flowing team move starting in Leeds’ half, was chosen ahead of Andre Dozzell, Aaron Connolly and Nathan Broadhead’s efforts for QPR, Hull City and Ipswich Town, respectively. The goal in question saw Archie Gray retrieve possession and feed Georginio Rutter who in turn found Willy Gnonto before receiving it back from the Italian, all the while Leeds moved towards the Millwall goal at speed.
” “I’m very happy, it’s always nice to score goals and even better to get an award for it. “We have worked on many combinations between myself and Georginio Rutter in training and it worked perfect for that goal,” Piroe said. The striker’s arrival at Leeds has generated debate amongst supporters regarding the Dutchman’s best position.
