Mbangula Shines with Impressive Finish for SVW

A Key Goal for Werder Bremen

A smooth buildup from the back led to a crucial cross by Werder Bremen’s forward, Justin Njinmah, who sent the ball into the penalty area. Samuel Mbangula, the team’s summer acquisition, seized the opportunity to capitalize on a hasty clearance from St. Pauli’s defender, Eric Smith. Mbangula displayed his skill with a well-executed shot from 16 meters, marking his second career goal in the Bundesliga and adding to his tally of five goals in just six appearances.

Mbangula’s Reflections on the Victory

“It was amazing to score in front of our fans,” Mbangula expressed during his post-game interview with Sky Germany on Saturday. “It felt fantastic, and I hope this is just the beginning of many goals to come. We have room for improvement as a new squad trying to discover our identity. I’m not certain how long that will take.”

Commitment to Improvement

“I am aware that I haven’t reached my peak performance yet,” Mbangula continued. “However, I am confident that it will come soon. I will keep putting in consistent effort every day, and eventually, everyone will witness my best form.”

Praise from the Coach

“He has been enhancing his skills each week,” commented Coach Steffen during the post-match press conference. “I’m very pleased that he’s showcasing how essential he is to our team.”

Support from the Management

Bremen’s sporting director, Peter Niemeyer, shared Steffen’s views in the mixed zone, highlighting that “Mbangula is starting to reveal his significant potential on the field.” Clemens Fritz, Werder’s director of professional football, discussed Mbangula in detail while appearing on Sport1’s football talk show, “Doppelpass.”

“He has demonstrated his worth, and we are thrilled to have him in our ranks,” Fritz explained. “A minor injury hampered his progress, but he is agile, contributes well defensively, and effectively uses his physique in one-on-one situations. His technique, combined with his positioning, makes him a tricky player to deal with.”
