Goalkeeper Earns National League`s Player Award For August

By Steve Whitney

It is not unusual in the past for the monthly award to be picked up by a goalkeeper but this is usually attributable to saving goals and not scoring them.

But Nathan Vaughan certainly hit the headlines this month when his goal scored for Solihull Moors at Torquay United in the Vanarama National League went viral.

Not only was it scored from his own penalty area but it was actually scored more unbelievably ‘up the hill’ at Plainmoor, which most would deem almost impossible.

Goalscoring keepers are not to be found easily in any level of the game, let alone Vanarama National League and so no one can really begrudge him picking up the accolade this past month.
