England international and West Ham United forward Jarrod Bowen has showered a lot of praise on Ghana’s Mohammed Kudus after the latter delivered another brilliant performance for The Hammers.
West Ham smashed German side Freiburg 5-0 in the second leg of a Europa League Round of 16 matchup at the London Stadium.
The win ensured West Ham progressed to the quarterfinals via a 5-1 win on aggregate after suffering a 1-0 loss in Germany.
Kudus scored a brace with the goals coming in the 77th and 85th minute with his first his goal tipped as an early contender for goal of the season after dribbling past players having picked the ball from his half and finishing off the move.
Bowen scored in the 32nd minute and in his post game interview, the member of West Ham’s vaunted trio of Kudus and Paqueta shared the pleasure he has playing alongside Kudus.
“The number of times he won the ball back and dribbled and the kept on running with the ball. He’s so direct, has an eye for goal, and even had the composure to finish it with his right foot despite being a left-footed player. I’m really happy for him.”
“He [Kudus] is a special player and I see it when he dribbles all the time. I enjoy playing with Mo and he enjoys playing with me and we have a connection. Here’s to more goals.”
Kudus’ fine run in his first season with West Ham got underlined with his latest fine outing.
