Nigeria forward Paul Onuachu has dedicated his first Southampton goal to the club’s fans.
Prompt News reports that Onuachu scored a brilliant header in the Saints 3-2 loss at Nottingham Forest on Sunday.
The 30-year-old was pleased to be off the mark for the Saints.
The striker also paid tribute to the fans for the way they have stuck by him since his arrival two years ago.
“I mean, it’s a good feeling to score, but disappointing we lost, but I’m happy that I scored in front of the fans,” he told the club’s official website.
“The away fans, they were brilliant, they’ve been supportive even though we are last on the table and they’ve been also cheering for me to get this goal. I think all kudos to them for the goal because they’ve been really cheering for me to get the first goal.”
Onuachu added: “They’ve been brilliant. Even though we’ve been last in the table they’ve been travelling everywhere, full everywhere, I mean I’m just going to dedicate this goal to them because they’ve been supportive to be honest, they’re cheering for me when sometimes I’ve played a good game, played not so good game, they are still ‘Paul, come one, come on’ and still cheering. It’s nice to see.”
