Ayoni Santos scores first Cape Verde goal in 4-2 win over Liberia

Ayoni Santos marked a significant milestone for Cape Verde by scoring his first international goal in their 4-2 victory over Liberia.

The 21-year-old PSV forward was named in the starting line-up and made an immediate impact, opening the scoring after only five minutes. His match ended in the 58th minute.

Santos has enjoyed a productive week in front of goal. Last Sunday, he also scored for PSV in their 5-2 win against SC Cambuur.

His first goal for Cape Verde helped secure their first victory in qualifying for the Africa Cup of Nations. The result was particularly important after earlier defeats by Mali and Rwanda.

Cape Verde now face Liberia again on Tuesday. They must finish second in the group to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations.
