BARNSLEY winger Reyes Cleary’s sensational goal in the Yorkshire derby at Bradford City has secured the Sky Bet League One goal of the month award for October.

Cleary beat off competition from Leyton Orient’s Dom Ballard, Mansfield Town’s Rhys Oates and Stevenage’s Harvey White.

Clips of Cleary's extraordinary 60-yard shot from inside his own half in the 2-2 draw at Valley Parade on October 18 went viral and provided a derby moment that no-one among the 22,228 crowd will ever forget.

The wonder goal was described as 'world-class' by Bantams manager Graham Alexander, while Reds counterpart Conor Hourihane labelled it as unique.

On his accolade, Cleary said: "I’m honoured to receive this award. A goal from sixty yards is something you don’t score every day, but it came from the team’s hard work and the confidence they give me. I’m just glad it helped us on the day."

Meanwhile, Hull City's Joe Gelhardt has won the Championship goal of the month accolade for October.

The former Leeds United player finished off a wonderful team move in the game against Leicester City on October 21.

Gelhardt said: "The build-up for the goal was brilliant – I had the easy part of just tapping into an open goal!

"Credit to Liam (Millar), Ryan (Giles) Regan (Slater) and Charlie (Hughes) for the play beforehand. If I could share the award with them, I would!

"This is the main place I wanted to come in the summer after last season, so I’m buzzing to be back. We’ve had a good start to the season and, hopefully, we can keep it going."

Gelhardt beat off competition from Millwall’s Femi Azeez, Ipswich Town’s Jaden Philogene and Leicester City’s Aaron Ramsey.
