Modou Sougou, the Senegal international striker, expressed his happiness after playing a crucial role in securing a draw for his team during the 6th day of Ligue 1 in France. Sougou scored a goal against Montpellier, equalizing for Evian just three minutes after Montpellier had taken the lead with a goal from Wass.
Despite usually being a replacement and often considered as a winger, Sougou was stationed in front of the goal for this particular match. His goal celebration included taking off his jersey and running towards the sidelines.
Sougou acknowledged that in previous matches, he felt he hadn’t made the right decisions when finding himself in front of the goal. However, he was pleased with his opportunistic approach in this game, particularly as the goal earned a point for Evian. He emphasized that the team played the match not to lose it and considered the draw a good result.
Reflecting on the match, Sougou noted that Montpellier might be dissatisfied, as they expected to win 2-0 and secure three points. Despite the challenging start to the match, Sougou expressed satisfaction with the point earned, putting Evian in a good position for the upcoming match against Lille.
