Etafia thrilled by Man of match Award
Man of The match Etafia
Akpabio targets more goals
Nigerian goalkeeper Greg Etafia has expressed delight with the Man of
the Match Award he won as his club Moroka Swallows drew 2-2 with table-topping
Mamelodi Sundowns in a South African PSL game.
Etafia made several big saves to ensure Swallows got something out of this clash after one of his mistakes saw his club slump 3-0 to Kaizer Chiefs the previous week.
“It was a good and tough game. I was happy with my contribution in the game and the fact that I was named Man of the Match showed that my efforts were appreciated but victory would have been better for us,” he told MTNFootball.com
“We have to keep our heads and go out for victory in subsequent games to actualise our dreams for this season.”
Etafia dedicated his award, which carries a cash prize of 1,500 rands, to his coach Gordon Igesund and his teammates.
“The coach kept faith in me despite the Kaizer Chiefs match and overall the team worked hard for each other for us to get a result against Sundowns,” he said.
Swallows are sixth on the table with 30 points from 18 matches.
