Ghanaian youngster Ibrahim Osman has reacted after helping FC Nordjaelland to secure an emphatic victory over Ludogorets in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
The 18-year-old lasted 73 minutes as his outfit cruised to a resounding 7-1 home win over the Bulgarian giants.
The Ghanaian winger capped an impressive performance with a goal as the Danish club thrashed the Bulgarian champions on Thursday night.
"European night in Farum. We move," he posted on social media.
Nordsjælland got off to the perfect start against Ludogorets, taking the lead from the spot after the referee spotted a handball inside the area.
Marcus Ingvartsen stepped up with the pressure on, and found the bottom right-hand corner in just the second minute.
Penalties remained the theme of the day, and the visitors were soon given an opportunity of their own from 12 yards following Martin Frese’s challenge. Like Ingvartsen seven minutes earlier, Olivier Verdon made no mistake, slotting into the left-hand corner to level things up.
In a frantic start, Ludogorets’ joy did not last long. This time, it was Ibrahim Osman wheeling away in celebration for Nordsjælland just two minutes after they had been pegged back. The winger took full advantage of Sergio Padt’s calamitous error to comfortably find the back of the net with just 11 minutes on the clock.
The Bulgarian side capitulated from there, leaving the hosts in dreamland with a third and fourth goal within two minutes of each other. First came Jeppe Tverskov’s header, before Benjamin Nygren then connected with Ingvartsen’s cutback to sweep home. The first half ended 4-1 for Nordsjaelland.
Francisco Gómez’s own goal made it five for the hosts.
Just when things surely couldn’t get any worse, Nygren made it a sensational six, finding the bottom right-hand corner from the edge of the box, before Christian Rasmussen ended the scoring from the bench with a seventh, rebounding home in the 86th minute to compound Ludogorets’ misery.
