| William Troost-Ekong, Defender |
Super Eagles defender, William Troost-Ekong expressed his
joy after scoring against Fenerbache, even as his club Bursaspor lost 2-1 in a
Turkish League clash yesterday.
Troost-Ekong who was in the heart of the Super Eagles
defence at the Russia 2018 World Cup tournament headed home the first goal of
the match. But goals from Fenerbahce’s Giuliano and Souza eventually knocked down
the Green Crocodiles but the 24-year-old
is optimistic the team will not be deterred by the early setback.
Troost Ekong tweeted "Happy to
score my first goal of the season tonight against Fenerbahce. Thought we deserved more but we will
keep fighting". Two of his Nigerian compatriots, Abdullahi Shehu and Paschal Onyedika
were included in the squad that travelled to face the Fenerbache. They will
hope to bounce back from the defeat when they take on Kayserispor
this weekend.
Ekong dedicated his early opener for his club to his new-born baby boy.
