Ibrahim Sekagya Former Uganda skipper Ibrahim Sekagya has said it’s a great feeling to finally get on the score sheet for his new side, New York Red Bulls.

After Tim Cahill’s (former Everton attacking midfielder in the English Premiership) fastest goal in MLS football (eight seconds), Sekagya nodded in the second in the 65th minute in their 3-0 win over Houston Dynamo FC on Monday morning.

“It feels great to get my first goal and I hope I will keep scoring for the club,” said Sekagya, who moved from sister club Red Bull Salzburg in Austria two months ago.

Sekagya said he is enjoying playing alongside one of Arsenal’s legends, Thierry Henry, who has been an inspiration to him since he joined the club.

Second-half substitute Bradley Wright-Phillips scored the third goal for Sekagya’s team to take them close to winning the Supporters Shield.

The former KCCA FC defender, who moved to Argentina before switching to Austria, skippered the Cranes for over six years.
