Many Newcastle United fans will long for the days when Nigeria striker Obafemi Martins was banging in the goals for the Magpies, including his spectacular strike against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.
Now playing his trade in the MLS in America for the Seattle Sounders, Martins clearly hasn’t lost his eye for a great goal.
In the Sounders’ encounter with San Jose earlier this morning, Martins scored this classy little lob…
That was the only goal in the game, giving Seattle a 1-0 win and putting them top of the West Conference in the MLS.
Somewhat surprisingly, 29-year-old Martins has been left out of Nigeria’s World Cup squad, preventing us with the chance of seeing Shola Ameobi and Oba re-united up to in Brazil.
Oba Martins a legend your having a laugh int yah
