Nigerian Striker Celebrates 1st Goal For Fenerbache
Bright Osayi-Samuel has revealed that his first Fenerbahce goal against Konyaspor has given him confidence.
The midfielder ended his wait for a maiden Yellow Canaries goal as Erol Bulut’s men swept aside the Anatolian Eagle 3-0 at the Konya Buyuksehir Stadium on Monday evening.
With Attila Szalai giving the visitors a 29th-minute lead, the former Queens Park Rangers star doubled his side’s advantage three minutes later. He slotted the ball past goalkeeper Ibrahim Sehic after he was teed up by Dimitrios Pelkas.
Serdar Aziz’s goal in the 90th minute sealed the win, and the 23-year-old, who is pleased to have broken his duck for the Turkish Super Lig outfit, said his effort has boosted his self-esteem.
He also applauded his teammates for picking up all points at stake versus Ilhan Palut’s men, while assuring that they would improve in their next fixture.
“I feel very happy today that I personally scored. It was my first goal,” Osayi-Samuel told sources.
“I try to play very seriously every game I play. When I play, I try to do more, I try to improve myself. This goal I scored has given me confidence. I think I can do more.
“The more I play, the better I want to show what kind of player I am. We performed well as a team. Especially after we scored two goals, we also showed how much we want the game as a team.
“But after the second goal, we backed off a little bit. The opponent put pressure on us in that sense. We want to do better and continue well with a better performance in the next game.”
