'I was a little bit shy, and now I’m not': Jeremy Doku on scoring his first goal

Jeremy Doku is absolutely thrilled about scoring his first goal for the club, and it was a game-changer in the Man City vs. West Ham match. In the first half, James Ward-Prowse put the Hammers ahead after dispossessing Doku. But the Belgian levelled the score within just one minute of the restart.

He was named Player of the Match after an electric display. After the match he shared his emotions: "It means a lot. A lot. Especially after their goal. I wanted to do something back, something good, and I scored and helped the team and I’m happy for that. I think we reacted very well."

"We had a lot of chances in the first-half without scoring but we kept on going. They scored a goal, I had bad touch, so I was disappointed. We reacted well and kept on playing and after that we scored three goals and had a good game. I enjoyed it [against Vladimir Coufal]. I had a lot of one on ones, the coach knows i’m good at that."

"We go for one on ones. I tried to do it and it worked. I enjoyed the game against him. He [Guardiola] said the first game I was a little bit shy, and now I’m not, and I agree."

"I showed a little bit more today of what I’m capable of. I was less shy today. I’m not realising yet but I’m enjoying it a lot. It’s a big moment for me and my family. Hopefully, we can win a lot of games and trophies and I can score a lot of goals."
