Cole Palmer scored seven goals in the month of April but which strike won him the Goal of the Month.

Chelsea stalwart Cole Palmer's sensational opening goal in the 6-0 rout over Everton has won the Premier League Goal of the Month award for April.

Palmer struck four times in this match, but it was his first goal of the match that stole the show and eventually the Goal of the Month award.

This is the second award Palmer has received for his ruthless Premier League performances in April. The 22-year-old has also been crowned Player of the Month.

After 13 minutes against Everton is when Palmer received a pass from fullback Malo Gusto. He quickly adjusted his body and waited for Branthwaite to put pressure on him, before nonchalantly rolling the ball between the defender's legs.

He then escaped a two-man press of Garner and Onana with a back-heel pass to Nikolas Jackson who did well to square the ball back for a clever little one-two passing move.

Without an extra touch, Palmer had already made the decision on where he would place the ball. He opened up his body and wrapped his foot around the ball giving Pickford no chance.

Palmer’s goal won a majority of the votes in a pool that included bangers from; Mac Alister from Liverpool, two entries by Kevin De Bruyne, Kobbie Mainoo, Matheus Cunha, Mateo Kovacic, and Jeffrey Schlupp.
