Ben Davies' thunderbolt against Stoke City has been shortlisted for the Goal of the Round in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.
The full-back let rip from 25 yards and saw his effort zip home off the post at the bet365 Stadium on 23 December. It was a crucial goal as well, restoring our advantage in the tie at 2-1 after Stoke levelled Gareth Bale's opener with their first attempt on target. Harry Kane wrapped it up with the third goal and we now face Brentford in the semi-final on Tuesday 5 January (7.45pm).
It was the definition of a 'sweet strike' and, speaking on the night, Ben told us: "I had a chance a couple of minutes before that and tried to play it into Harry. The second time I just thought, ‘why not?’ and it was nice to see it nestle in the corner."
