The Nigerian also reacted to his superb strike against the Black Cats .
“When H (Harry Wilson) was on the ball, it was just me and Oscar running up the pitch. We’ve been working on this in training – in transition,” Iwobi added.
” He found me, I saw where the goalkeeper was positioned, and the only place to finish was over his foot. Credit to H, and to us for getting the three points.”
Fight For European Place
Fulham are pushing for a place in Europe, but Iwobi insisted that they take it step-by-step.
“We take it step-by-step. We got the three points, and that was the aim – to climb above them. We’ll see where it is at the end of the season,” declared the former Arsenal star.
