Former Super Eagles striker, Bartholomew Ogbeche, wins Goal of the Season award in India
Kerala Blasters forward Bartholomew Ogbeche’s ferocious shot against Chennaiyin back in December has been voted as the Fans’ Goal of the Season in the Indian Super League.
The 35-year-old’s equaliser from outside the penalty area had a total vote of 61.27 per cent, to see off competition from Rafael Crivellaro’s 50-yard strike in the final match-up.
Since he moved to India from Willem II in 2018, the former PSG attacker has scored 27 league goals across two seasons including 12 goals in his debut campaign with NorthEast United.
On the international scene, Ogbeche last played for the Super Eagles in an international friendly against the Republic of Ireland in 2004 where he scored a brace in the 3-0 win.
He was also a member of the Nigeria team at the 2002 Fifa World Cup in Korea/Japan, and he made two appearances in the competition.
