Nigerian
star performer in Europe last week, Sylvester Igbonu, says he is
banking on his current form to score more goals for his Danish club, FC
Midtjylland.
Igbonu scored all three goals on Friday as Midtjylland defeated OB Odense 3-2 in an explosive encounter.
The powerful striker is joint top scorer
in Denmark with five goals to his credit as Midtjylland occupy top spot
in the Danish Superliga after seven games.
He scored once in the 3-1 away defeat of
Sonderjyske , then grabbed the winner in the 2-1 win over Kobenhavn,
before hitting a hat-trick on Friday.
“I’m delighted to have scored a
hat-trick; my job as a striker is to score goals and I am happy that I
am doing that this season,” the 24-year-old said.
“What is most important is that we are
top of the Superliga and I am hoping to score more goals to help
Midtjylland remain there.”
The former Ebedei United striker hailed
his teammates for their hard work on the pitch, insisting that unity was
a key factor in Midtjylland’s early form in the season.
“What is important here is that we are
one united family. We play as a team. My teammates have been awesome and
they make the job easy. It’s not all about me but about the team. We
are a united group,” Igbonu added.
