Ihionvien Gillingham Strike Named GOTM

Bradley's first professional goal picks up award for August

13 September 2023

The nineteen-year-old forward will have few more memorable goals throughout his entire career than his first one a few weeks ago against Gillingham.

On as a second-half substitute, Bradley sprung the offside trap against the league leaders before coolly lifting the ball over Jake Turner to extend the U’s advantage at Priestfield.

And you have voted his strike as Colchester United’s Goal of the Month for August – Ihionvien’s effort took top spot with almost 90% of votes.

Speaking on the goal, Bradley said: “It wasn’t disbelief, but it was a bit like ‘oh my gosh this has actually happened now’ at first because everything I’d done had been working towards that point.

“It was joy from there, I was happy for myself, happy for my Dad and for my agent as they were both there as well. It was just joy that it’s finally come.”

Watch the memorable strike below.
