Canaries star Emi Buendia has been nominated for another award – this time for Sky Bet’s Championship goal of the month for March.
The Argentine’s winning goal against Swansea goes up against strikes by Jack Grealish for Aston Villa and Derby County’s Mason Bennett.
Buendia struck in the 54th minute, controlling Onel Hernandez’s cutback on his right foot before cracking a fearsome left-footed half volley beyond visiting goalkeeper Kristoffer Nordfeldt.
It was the only goal of the game and saw City move five points clear at the top of the table.
Grealish’s nomination is for Villa’s final goal in a 4-0 home thrashing of Midlands rivals Derby County when Glenn Whelan floated a deep corner with precision into the arc of the midfielder who volleyed home.
