MFM’s Olatunbosun becomes first NPFL player to win CNN goal of the week
Sikiru Olatunbosun has won the CNN Goal of the Week competition following his sublime goal against Rangers International of Enugu a forth night ago thus becoming the first Nigeria Professional League (NPFL) player to win the award.
The MFM striker received a pass from league’s top scorer Stephen Odey and in a flash dinked the ball past the head of Flying Antelope’s defender Etim before firing home a superb volley.
The stadium erupted with wild jubilations as the Lagos-based team went on to beat the Nigeria Professional Football League defending champions 2-1 at the Agege Stadium.
Manchester City forward Kelechi Iheanacho had previously won the award with his superb goal against Tanzania during the Africa Nations Cup qualifiers, however, Olatunbosun is the first player from the NPFL to win the accolade.
