Onyedika Celebrates First Champions League Goal Against Man City
Nigerian midfielder Raphael Onyedika is overjoyed after scoring his first-ever UEFA Champions League goal, despite Club Brugge’s 3-1 loss to Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
Onyedika, who has been a key player for the Belgian club, found the back of the net on Wednesday night, giving Brugge an early lead before City responded with three goals to secure the win.
Speaking about the moment, the Super Eagles star admitted it was a proud milestone in his career.
“I don’t know how to describe the feeling, but scoring my first Champions League goal at City’s stadium is incredible. I’m really proud,” he told Flashcore.com.
He also reflected on the match, acknowledging the team’s struggles after their opening goal.
“We knew it wouldn’t be easy, and after we scored, we became a bit careless. Once City equalized, they gained momentum, and our mistakes made it even tougher.”
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
Poland footballer Robert Lewandowski’s new club has officially been revealed.
