Henry Meja Continues Impressive Streak with AFC Eskilstuna

opera.com 3 days ago

Kenyan forward Henry Meja has once again showcased his scoring prowess for AFC Eskilstuna, netting his third goal since joining the club on loan from AIK. In a dominant 7-1 victory over Friska Viljor in the Swedish Division One - Norra, Meja opened the scoring just eight minutes into the match, marking his second consecutive week finding the back of the net.

Meja's recent form is a significant improvement from earlier in the season, where he struggled to score, managing only one goal in his first ten appearances. However, his recent performances have seen him become a key figure in Eskilstuna's attack. His goal, alongside strikes from Aleksandar Azizovic, Lee Hanson, and Oliver Markulic, contributed to Eskilstuna's climb to tenth place in the league standings.

While Meja played the entire 90 minutes, his compatriot Frank Odhiambo made a cameo appearance off the bench, continuing his role as a defensive option for Eskilstuna. Odhiambo, previously a regular starter, has seen reduced playing time in recent matches.

Looking ahead, AFC Eskilstuna will face Hammarby on August 4th, aiming to build on their recent victories and climb further up the Division One - Norra table.
