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 Filipe 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.

"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.
