Former Flying Eagles Captain On Target Against Barcelona B In La Liga 2

Former Flying Eagles captain Ramon Azeez opened his goalscoring account for his new employer CD Lugo as they beat Barcelona B 2-1 in a La Liga 2 clash staged at Mini Estadi on Monday night.

With almost the last action of the first half, the central midfielder equalized for the visitors when his header beat goalkeeper Jokin Ezkieta after Fede Vico's delightful ball into the box.

Azeez, who made his sixth straight appearance in the Spanish second-tier, was happy to score his first goal for CD Lugo.

''I am very happy with the goal, but more with the victory in a field like this, which is very important for the team,'' said Ramon Azeez to cdlugo.com.

''We knew how dangerous they were and how they could do us. We prepared a lot during the week to put up with everything they could do.''

Future Pro Academy product Azeez ended his six-year association with Almeria by penning a three-year contract with CD Lugo this summer.
