CD Feirense's Abraham Delighted With His Progress After Scoring In Back-To-Back Games
Published: October 27, 2020It has been a dream start in the Portuguese Liga 2 for Nigeria midfielder Abraham Marcus as he continues to impress at CD Feirense.
Two league goals in two consecutive games from the bench have seen Abraham gradually become a vital player for CD Feirense under manager FilipeĀ Martins.
Abraham's 74th minute goal sealed a 3-1 win for CD Feirense over Mafra FC on Monday as his second goal of the season ensured they secured their fourth win of the season.
Abraham who came on as a second half substitute in the 69th minute with the scores at 2-1 received the ball at the center of the field and took on two Mafra players while approaching the 18 yard box before releasing a rocket of a shot to render the Mafra FC goalie, Joao Godinho helpless.
Abraham featuring for the second time from the substitute bench was on target in his first game in the league away to Estoril last weekend scoring in the 94th minute to ensure his side secured a 3-3 draw away from home.
Speaking after receiving the man of the match award, he said :"I have been waiting for this opportunity, gradually I am making progress and I thank God.
"It is my second game and my second goal of the season, I had only one thing on my mind and that was to get to a shooting position to shoot and it was a good goal.
"I just want to keep improving, playing and ensuring I do to my very best in the game while getting the needed result for my club".
CD Fierense are currently fourth on the log, two points behind league leaders Estoril.
