West Ham striker Andy Carroll has beaten Arsenal's Olivier Giroud to the Premier League's Goal of the Month award for his sideways scissor kick against Crystal Palace.
Carroll scored West Ham's second goal in their 2-0 victory over Palace on Jan. 14 and secured the award based on a combination of the votes from the public and those of a panel made up of former managers and players.
Giroud had produced a "scorpion kick" as Arsenal defeated Palace 2-0 on Jan. 1.
Will it be a scorpion, bicycle or another January worldie that wins the Carling Goal of the Month Award?
