A brace, and Prosper Obiora Nwachukwu takes the afternoon — 8.20
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Prosper Obiora Nwachukwu provided it, and the 8.20 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Filip Kosi has just signed for ND Gorica, and for once the answer mattered.

Faad Sana turns down ND Gorica
The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Mura keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

The crowd has taken to Prosper Obiora Nwachukwu
At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.
