Joe Aribo has said he is delighted to score a wonder goal for Southampton in a final pre-season friendly against Villarreal before the start of the new season.
The former Glasgow Rangers midfielder also said he hopes to take the goal scoring form to the Premier League, which kicks off next weekend.
“I was laughing with the boys inside. I said I didn’t even know where I pulled that chop on the right foot out from, but it was a really good feeling to score at home and hopefully I can take that into games to come and help the boys this season,” Aribo said after his brilliant solo goal.
“It’s really important [to have scored] and hopefully I can take that momentum into the games to come.
“I think it was a really good test and one that we needed.
“You could see out there that Villarreal are a very good team and are comfortable on the ball, and that’s what’s to come in games to come this season, so it was a really good test for us in pre-season to see where we’re at.”
