Manor Solomon's debut goal in Fulham (Sport 1)
How much he had been waiting for this moment.
Manor Solomon celebrated tonight (Saturday) a debut goal in a Fulham uniform, and helped them beat Nottingham Forest 0:2.
The Israeli winger came off the bench in the 72nd minute, then, in the 88th minute, received a ball in a burst from Andreas Pereira and kicked to the right into the net.
First goal by an Israeli footballer in the Premier League since October 2018, when Biram Kiel did it in a Brighton uniform against Newcastle.
By the way, Solomon's previous goal in Europe (that is, not in the Ukrainian league) was against Thibaut Courtois, and this time he defeated Keylor Navas.
"These are the moments you dream of since childhood, to score in the Champions League, to score in the national team, and then to score in the Premier League," said Solomon to Niv Debrat from Sport1.
"I've been dreaming about this for a long time, since I arrived here, after the long injury I had. I'm happy that it happened to me and I hope that many more goals will come. I had a lot of time to think, sometimes it's not good, I kind of thought about what I was doing. Andreas passed me a ball It's amazing and I found myself one on one in front of the goalkeeper, I'm happy that I kicked to the right corner and kicked well. It's an amazing feeling."
The Israeli added: "In the beginning I played a few minutes here, a few minutes there, lately I've been getting into things a lot more, feeling much better physically, feeling that the injury is behind me. The game in the cup gave me confidence and I'm happy that I did my job today. When I'm on the bench I always I want to be in the lineup and prove myself, but the team ran great from the start of the season. I came back after a long time, so it's hard to get into the lineup, but I do what I have to do. Whatever they give me, I'll be satisfied and try to prove my place in the lineup."

He told Fulham's official website: "We played well, we had a lot of chances and I'm glad I helped. When the ball hits the net it's the best feeling there is. My last goal was in June, for the national team, and then I had a serious injury. I'm happy that I'm scoring again, and I want to thank To Andreas for the goal. It's an amazing feeling, first goal in Fulham, first goal in England and I'm already looking forward to scoring more goals and cooking more goals for this great team."
Solomon added: "In the summer I chose Fulham, I knew what this team would look like and we see a strong, dominant team here, we can play against any opponent and look them all in the eye. Today we once again proved our qualities and I am satisfied that I chose Fulham. It was a very positive week for us, Chelsea too, the cup too, and we want to continue like this."
