Tunde Adeniji Speaks On His 94th Minute Equaliser On Al Nasr Debut, Super Eagles AFCON Chances
Super Eagles striker Tunde Adeniji has expressed his delight at scoring on his competitive debut for Al Nasr as they shared the spoils with a 1-1 draw against Al Salmiyah on Saturday afternoon.

Al Nasr came away with one point from the Thamir Stadium when Adeniji restored parity in the 94th minute.

''I feel very happy scoring because this is my first game for the club and with the support from my teammates, they made it easy for me,'' Adeniji told allnigeriasoccer.com immediately after the game.

''I chose to play in Kuwait because my family and my agent supported me, not that I didn't have offers in Europe but my mind was just to come here.''

When asked about his target for the remainder of the season, Adeniji said : ''My target is to score more goals which I don't know the number of goals I will score.

''The club signed me because they believe I can do it, with the support of my coach and teammates.''

The Sunshine stars product concluded by saying that the Super Eagles are one of the teams to watch out for at this summer's Africa Cup of Nations : ''I believe we have good players and good coaches and we will do well in the AFCON. I have belief in the Super Eagles players''.

Adeniji's Italian-based agent, Ben Itorho watched his client score on his debut against Al Salmiyah.
