Myron Boadu has admitted he feels relieved after finally scoring for French side Monaco.
The Dutch international of Ghanaian descent got on the scoresheet for the first time on Thursday since his 17 million euros move in the summer.
Boadu netted the opener as Monaco claimed a 2-1 win over PSV Eindhoven in the Europa League.
"PSV is a very good opponent, but I think I've already scored three times against them. I'm just happy that I scored today, that it's against PSV, it's just a coincidence," Boadu told ESPN.
He added "Of course it's tough, but as a footballer, you have to challenge yourself. Of course, it doesn't happen automatically, I have to work hard and train hard every day and sometimes have luck in competitions. But I have the feeling that I was always close and now I score him happily."
This weekend, the forward is expected to be in action when AS Monaco takes on Montpellier in the French Ligue 1 on Sunday afternoon.
