Stanley Awurum Is My Secret Weapon - Varzim Coach
Varzim of Portugal coach Quim Berto has revealed that young Nigerian striker Stanley Ejike Awurum is his secret weapon. <br /><br />Awurum
came off the bench to net his second goal of the season with just three
minutes to full time as the newly-promoted side ran away with a lone
goal victory over Leixões on Saturday.<br /><br />Awurum, top scorer in the
Mozambican second division few seasons ago, had previously rammed into
in his side’s equalizer after coming off the bench, leaving Berto
fullfilled with his secret weapon tag.<br /><br />The Port Harcourt-born former Academy player told <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b> that he was happy to score after coming off the bench, saying he’s done well to repay Berto’s faith in him.<br /><br />“
We have a striker who was their top scorer last season but has netted
once so far this season that still gets the starting nod,” he said<br /><br />“ He’s quite good and the coach prefers to start him and have me on when the going gets tough on the pitch<br /><br />“ I’ve really lived up to expectation and I dedicate all the goals to God for making it possible for me to get this far.<br /><br />“ I’ve scored two goals in three games all as a sub and I thank God for it.”<br /><br />Awurum
joined the ambitious club late last season as they navigated their ship
up to the Segunda (second division), winning the Third Division
championship.<br /><br />His goals, 25, mostly from against the run of play,
propelled Chibuto to finish second on the the Mozambican second
division log as well as becoming theb losing finalists in the FA Cup in
the 2013/14 season.<br /><br />Photo Credit : varzim.pt
