Ghanaian international Samuel Ofori has helped FC Ravshan Kulob to lift Tajikistan Super Cup on Saturday.

The 24-year-old was rock solid at the back when his outfit inflicted a 1-0 win over double champions, FC Istiklol Dushanbe to clinch the title.

Reacting to his outfit triumph, Ofori said, “I feel so excited and fulfilled. It is very special for me because this is my first major international trophy as a professional footballer and I believe it is the stepping stone to more,” Ofori told Sportsinghana.com.

Ofori joined the Asian outfit barely a year ago and has helped the club to win their first title of the season.

Meanwhile, the defender has set sights on winning the Tajikistan league title at the end of the season.

FC Ravshan Kulob are 5th on the table with 9 points, 4 behind the leaders, FK Eskhata with a game in hand.

“Yes Istiklol are the top side but we have beaten them in two games already this season so we are very confident of going all the way. We definitely want to be champions and we will fight with everything we have,” Samuel Ofori said.

“We will try but this season referees haven’t been good to us. If not we will already be on top of the table but there are still a lot of games left and I’m hoping we can do it,” he affirmed.
