Tavşanlı Linyitspor  attacker Sani Gideon finally ended his goal drought after not being on the score-sheet in the last four matches in all competitions.

Gideon, who joined the Turkish second - tier club on a season long loan this past summer, netted after four minutes in the 2 - 1 loss to Denizlispor on Saturday.

Though the 23 - year - old could not hide his joy, on the flip side, he was disappointed that Tavşanlı Linyitspor did not get a single point from the game.

“I feel happy scoring but still feel bad losing the game.  Well it is one of those things in football and I am a  victim already.

“What we all need to do is to keep working hard together and make sure we get out of the relegation zone,”says Sani Gideon to allnigeriasoccer.com.  

Tavsanli Linyitspor have four Nigerians on their roster, former Nigeria youth international Akeem Agbetu, Dele Olorundare , Nduka Usim and Sani Gideon himself.

“It feels good.I feel am at home playing in a team with my brothers from the same country. It is just that we are not favoured presently.”
    
 Tavşanlı Linyitspor , who occupy the 17th position on the 19 - team table, have just 9 points from their first 14 games in the First League.
