Europa League - Akeem Latifu : It Was Not An Easy Match

Hodd right back Akeem Latifu has commented on the 1 - 0 victory over Kazakhstani club FC Aktobe in the first leg of the Europa League second qualifying round.

In front of an estimated 2,000 spectators, Espen Standaleidet netted the match winner after 28 minutes.

''It was not an easy match but thank God we won the game , and we did not concede any goal.

''Going into the next round, I think we are at advantage. We have to keep believing in our abilities,'' Latifu said to allnigeriasoccer.com.

Hodd, who have never played in Europe before Thursday's tie at Høddvoll, will travel to Kazakhstan for the return leg next week.
