New östersunds FK acquisition Alhaji Gero was delighted to score on his debut for the newly-promoted Allsvenskan side in their 3-2 victory against Levanger FK in a pre-season friendly played in Norway on Saturday afternoon.

The Swedish team had been trailing 2-1 before the former Flying Eagles striker was introduced immediately after the interval and  he responded with a debut goal seven minutes later.

“My first game, first friendly of the season and my first goal. I feel good scoring, looking forward to the start of the season, ” a happy Gero said to allnigeriasoccer.com.
