Making golang Gorilla CORS handler work

Question

I have fairly simple setup here as described in the code below. But I am not able to get the CORS to work. I keep getting this error:

XML

After declaring the mux object, add the accessControlMiddleware as a middleware to the declared object.

func main(){
  ac := new(controllers.AccountController)

    router := mux.NewRouter()
    router.Use(accessControlMiddleware)
    router.HandleFunc("/signup", ac.SignUp).Methods("POST")
    router.HandleFunc("/signin", ac.SignIn).Methods("POST")
    http.ListenAndServe(":3000", corsOpts.Handler(router))
}

// access control and  CORS middleware
func accessControlMiddleware(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
    return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
            w.Header().Set("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*")
            w.Header().Set("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "GET, POST, OPTIONS,PUT")
            w.Header().Set("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Origin, Content-Type")

                if r.Method == "OPTIONS" {
                    return
                }

                next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
            })
        }
