Time to pick the Goal of the Month of October!
Stay tuned to all our social media profiles
Only for the month of October, we have decided to double down on your Goal of The Month intake! And how should it be any different? Given the tally of 36 goals in a month across First Team, Under-23s and Primavera, ruling out even one of the stunners scored this month due to a trifle "no vacancy" would have been to a diabolical display of slackness... As if it was for capacity reason alone and not a full-blown incivilty towards both the craftmanship of exhibits and the panache of our virtuosos, who poured all their flair in the creation of such commendable specimens...
As such, for the sake of doing them justice, here's a "nesting dolls" knockout stage: initially drafted in two "round robin" groups our eight contestants will cross swords in two concentric stages, staggered between Wednesday 20/11 and Thursday 21/11. From the initial "Group Stage" will then come forth the four claimants to the GOTM throne (namely the winners and runner-ups of each group), who will then do battle on Thursday's Final Four, which will in return produce "the banger to end all bangers" from the month just passed!
Save the date (or rather dates): while Phase 1 starts at 12:30 CET and is due at half past noon on Thursday, the tie-brake will follow suit to then close on Friday at 12:30 CET...
Withour beating around the bush any further, here are the 8 participants of the Goal of the Month of October (Group A and B). Which ones will make the final cut? As always, the call is your to make...
