Gideon Monday, a forward for Plateau United, expressed satisfaction with his role in the team’s 3-1 victory over Shooting Stars.
Taheer Abubakar’s initial goal for Shooting Stars was neutralised by Monday’s equaliser for Plateau United.
Before Jibril Ibrahim added the third goal for the home team in a 3-1 victory, Seiyefa Jackson gave Plateau United the lead for the first time in the match.
The attacker claimed that in order to give Plateau United the lead, he attacked the goal with tenacity.
Monday told Plateau United media, “I’m really happy with the victory and also delighted to have scored my first goal for the club.”
“I’m thrilled to have scored against Shooting Stars, my old team. I am aware that I had an opportunity, which I relentlessly pursued.
According to Furucinovel, Monday left Shooting Stars to join the Jos-based team at the beginning of the current season.
When Plateau United plays Doma United on Wednesday at Pantami Stadium, he will be hoping to maintain his scoring streak.
