New League Goal Record Excites Mfon

New goal scoring sensa
tion Mfon Udoh has revealed he did not set out to break the all-time goals record in the Nigeria league this season.
Jude Aneke set a new record of 20 goals in the league three seasons ago, but Enyimba striker Udoh has now gone into the history books after he fired home 23 goals to become the player to score the highest number of goals in a single season in the Nigeria league.
”I am elated to write my name in the history book of Nigeria football by setting new goal scoring record. Though I never target the feat as my aim was to score 20 goals, five goals better than what I scored in 2012/2013 season for Akwa United,” he said.
”But when I reached the 20-goal mark, I felt I could score two more to set the record and I thank God I ended up with 23 goals. Though I was sad we didn’t win the league.”
Udoh’s club Enyimba were beaten by a point by champions Kano Pillars.
The striker scored five braces in the season, and two of those braces were against Nembe City home and away.
He was awarded 250,000 Naira prize money as the league hotshot for the 2013/14 season.
