Friday Etim is making his mark at FC Midtjylland, and his latest strike against Slovan Bratislava proves he’s ready to shine.
The Nigerian forward found the net once again to seal a commanding 4-1 away win that leaves fans excited for the new Denmark Super Liga season, Footballrover reports.
Etim’s Late Strike Seals FC Midtjylland’s Big Win
The Sunday club friendly saw Etim come off the bench to wrap up the scoring as FC Midtjylland crushed Slovan Bratislava at the Tehelné Pole.
Subbed in at the 64th minute for Dario Osorio, Etim needed just 16 minutes on the pitch to show his class, firing home in style to make it 4-1.
Before Etim’s moment, an early own goal by Angola defender Sandro Cruz barely eight minutes into the game gifted Midtjylland the lead.
Bratislava hit back quickly through Peter Pokorny, leveling just five minutes later.
But Dario Osorio restored the visitors’ advantage in the 21st minute with a slick finish, and they maintained that narrow margin heading into the first half break.
Twelve minutes after the restart, Franculino doubled the advantage to make it 3-1 for the visitors, and Friday Etim sealed the result with a strike in the 80th minute.
A clinical display from the Danish side leaves Slovan with plenty to ponder.
This makes it two goals in two games for Etim, who also scored in the 3-1 win over Dynamo Kyiv.
High Spirits for Super Liga Opener
With momentum high, Etim and his teammates will now turn their focus to their Denmark Super Liga opener against Odense at the MCH Arena on Sunday, July 20.
The 23-year-old, who notched up 11 goal contributions (seven goals, four assists) for Portuguese side Mafra before his switch, looks set to become a key figure for his new club.
A clinical display against Slovan Bratislava shows exactly why fans will be eager to see how far Etim can go this season.
