Manager of the German Bundesliga club Union Berlin, Urs Fischer has heaped praises on the Nigeria's Super Eagles striker Taiwo Awoniyi, BSNsports.com.ng can report.
The performance of the former Flying Eagles attacker has received accolades across Europe this season and the manager of the team has joined the chorus ahead of the Cup game against St Pauli.
“I wanted to take the pressure off Taiwo a bit. He was at the Africa Cup of Nations and it has gone very well this season. He’s had a bit of a dry spell with Union now. Vogi was one of our last goalscorers and I decided for him a bit on instinct.
“We still need Taiwo (against St Pauli). He is our top scorer and I’m glad it happened like this: Coming in and scoring against Mainz was important for his self-confidence," he said.
The 24-year-old is Union’s top scorer this season with 15 goals from 31 appearances in all competitions.
