Attention Werder fans! With immediate effect, you can vote Claudio Pizarro’s back-heeled second goal against Borussia Monchengladbach as 'Goal of the Month' for August. In his very first Bundesliga game since again returning to the Weser, the Peruvian was on target with a dream goal.

 

In the 38th minute of the game, Clemens Fritz, taking on a pass from Pizarro, played the ball forward back into the path of 'Pizza', who had burst forward, and the South American striker turned the ball past goalkeeper Christofer Heimeroth with a wonderful, back-heeled effort. The goal made it 2-0 in a game which Werder eventually won 3-0, notching up their first win of the current Bundesliga season.

 

The five nominated goals will be presented over the next two weekends in the 'ARD-Sportshau'. You can cast your vote online now at www.sportschau.de. The deadline for participation is 7pm on 12.09.2009.
