First team

Swansea City's Matt Grimes has been nominated for the Sky Bet EFL Championship Goal of the Month for January.

The midfielder’s wonderful volley in the win at Rotherham is on the three-strong shortlist.

The Swans skipper doubled the lead against the Millers when a corner was punched out to him on the left side of the area.

Despite running away from goal, Grimed adjusted superbly to send a low, swerving strike into the bottom corner.

Nottingham Forest’s Sammy Ameobi and Reading’s John Swift also have goals on the shortlist, and voting is now open.
