GOAL OF THE WEEKEND: Devante Cole – Barnsley
When you’re the son of former Newcastle United and Manchester United forward Andy Cole, you have a lot to live up to. When you score goals like this one, however, you put some of that to ease because this was a sublime finish. A cross in from the right was met on the volley by Devante Cole, who just guided the ball into the corner, a delightful little finish.
People might argue that a goal in the same game, that free-kick from Marcus Maddison was terrific but he also won the award last time out and I’m not one for making players greedy. The limelight deservedly goes to Cole, what a player he could be if he turns out to be anything like his father was in his heyday.
