“It was a moment of joy for me when my coach told me to
warm up. I feel delighted that after making the bench on our last home match
and away game at Tornadoes, I finally made my debut, especially in front of
home fans.
“When I came in I was a little bit scared, but after two
successful touches I felt no pressure. I thank God that the goals came in after
I was introduced to the game.
“I want to express my appreciation to the coaching crew
led by Coach Dogo who is like a father to me for the opportunity. They all gave
me the confidence because they believe in me. I promise not to let them and the
fans down whenever I am given such opportunity,” Adejubu told Sportsbiz247.blogspot.com.
Adejubu, who was introduced into the game, replacing
Chibundu Amah in the 64th minute made immediate impact as Dayo Ojo broke the
deadlock with a powerful strike from inside the area, before Fuad Ekelojuoti
then took the game beyond the visitors in stoppage time with a tap home for
Sunshine Stars' second of the game and his forth of the season.
