London: A five-year-old Sunderland fan who has terminal cancer was adjudged joint winner of the BBC's December goal of the month award.


Bradley Lowery, who earlier this season had his name chanted by Sunderland and Everton fans in the fifth minute of their match in which he led the Black Cats out, beat Chelsea reserve goalkeeper Asmir Begovic from the penalty spot at half-time of their Premier League game last month.



Lowery, who received 250,000 Christmas cards following his penalty, shared the award with Manchester United's Henrikh Mkhitaryan and beat the likes of Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez. "We have woken up this morning to the news that Bradley's goal got joint goal of the month," his mother Gemma told the Sunderland Echo.
