Mainz 05 attacker Taiwo Awoniyi has stated that kicking football make him forget all his problem.

The former Genk striker was the hero on Sunday as he helped Mainz 05 secured a valuable away draw against FC Koln.

Awoniyi said as a boy coming from Africa, there are a lots of problem to worry about but anytime he found himself on the pitch he forget the problem.

“I would say when I’m playing football I forget a lot of problems,” he continued.

“As a boy coming from Africa, even sometimes when you have nothing to kick, once you have the ball, you forget about most of your worries and you just keep on kicking. I think that was what happened on Sunday.

“Our focus was on getting the goals and equalising, which is what happened in the game.l," he told club website.

Its left to be seem if Liverpool will allow Awoniyi to remain with Mainz 05 beyond the end of the season.
