Shoot!’s FA Cup Awards (Third Round)

Goal of the Round: Sean McConville (Accrington Stanley)

Accrington Stanley’s Sean McConville (Right).

Looking through the FA Cup fixtures for the weekend, and you wouldn’t have predicted this to make the headlines, and heading in to half time 0-0, you’d have been spot on.

But Sean McConville had different ideas and produced an absolute cracker to put Accrington Stanley 1-0 up just a minute before half-time.

Stanley won the ball back just inside the Luton Town half and the ball was given to McConville on the left-wing.

He cut inside and curled an absolute peach into the top corner of Christian Walton’s goal.

On a dull day in Lancashire, a true stunner provided a spark to light up the game before the interval.

The second-half was slightly more eventful than the first, seeing first Luton equalise, Stanley back in front and then a late red card to Glen Rea. But what the second-half couldn’t provide, a goal anywhere near as good as that.
