Ghana defender Mohammed Salisu buttressed his uptick in performance in recent weeks by scoring the winning goal in AS Monaco’s win over Toulouse.
Monaco bagged the 1-0 win over Toulouse this past weekend with the Black Stars player scoring the goal via a header in the third minute.
Salisu’s goal is the fastest for Monaco this season and the first win for recently appointed head coach Sebastien Pocognoli. Pocognoli replaced Adi Hutter earlier this month.
Speaking after a brilliant performance against Francis Abu’s Toulouse side that earned Salisu the Man of the Match Award, the former Southampton player talked through his goal stating to Monaco media that, “I just tried to take the ball and I think it came to the right place. I’m also well positioned in the six-yard box, so I made sure to put it at the near post.”
