English-born striker of Ghanaian descent, Eddie Nketiah, was full of excitement on Saturday afternoon after netting the winning goal for Crystal Palace in their 2-1 victory against Liverpool in the English Premier League.
The former Arsenal forward started the Week 6 encounter on the bench, coming on in the 75th minute to replace Ismaila Sarr.
Later in the 97th minute, when the game looked set to end in a draw, Nketiah scored from close range with a powerful left-foot shot, ensuring that Palace continued their unbeaten run in the 2025/26 English Premier League season.
Speaking in his post-match interview, the English-Ghanaian striker shared his delight, stressing that Crystal Palace deserved nothing but all three points.
"It was a nice flick-on, and I just tried to stay calm and focus on my first touch. I trust myself with both feet and it was a nice finish with my left foot, with a bit of a nervous wait for VAR! It is nothing less than the boys deserved. We never give up, we never stop believing,” Nketiah said as quoted on cpfc.co.uk.
The forward further assured that he remains committed to Crystal Palace and will always put up his best performance when called on to feature for the Eagles, whether as a starter or from the bench as a substitute.
