Ahmad Usman wins VAT Wonder Goal 5

Ahmad Usman of Wikki Tourists polled the highest number of votes for the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) VAT Wonder Goal for Matchday 24. The Wikki man finished in the voting process for the best goal of the matchday under review ahead of Andrew Ikefe of Niger Tornadoes and Musa Suleman of Katsina United.


Usman was heads and shoulders ahead of Ikefe and Suleman during the voting process on the NPFL offical website and Twitter handle. He got 42 per cent and 60.6 per cent of the total votes on Twitter and the website respectively.

Ikefe finished in second position with 30 per cent of the votes on Twitter and 33.8 per cent on the website while 5.6 per cent on the website and 28 per cent on Twitter voted for Suleman.

Usman's goal was the third for Wikki in a Matchday 24 fixture against Niger Tornadoes which the Bauchi club ran out 3-1 winners.

The attacker's goal was a things of beauty as he picked up a pass from a teammate on the left channel just after the half line, and raced down the left flank into the box before cutting inside his marker to set up himself.

Usman made no error by rifling home into the bottom corner to the Tornadoes goalkeeper's left side to extend his club's lead at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Stadium in Bauchi.

The winner of the Wonder Goal 5 will receive a cash prize of N150,000, half of which will be dominated to the charity of his choice located in Bauchi State where Wikki are located.


Ayo Saka of Rivers United, Ubong Friday of Akwa United, Salefu Ochowechi of Remo Stars and FC Ifeanyiubah's Seka Pascal have previously won the VAT Wonder Goal this season.
