Fulham of England striker, Josh Maja is still basking in the euphoria of his double goal stunner that helped his team sink Everton at the weekend, but he affirmed that the delight of the moment is for the whole squad, not just him.
Megasportsarena.com reports that Maja was delirious after his first English Premier League goals gave Fulham a huge boost in their relegation fight with a 2-0 win over a lethargic Everton.
Fulham controlled Sunday night’s game from start to finish at Goodison Park but were facing a familiar headache when their dominance had not been rewarded before half-time, with Bobby Reid’s header against the post the closest they had come.
However, Maja struck a well-worked opener three minutes into the second period for the perfect Fulham welcome on his first start for the club, before doubling the lead just after the hour after Harrison Reed struck the woodwork.
The former Sunderland of England hitman and top scorer, who is on loan from Bordeaux of France, scored twice to end a run of 12 games without a win and believes the victory away to Everton will boost the confidence of struggling Fulham as they fight to stay up in the Premier League.
Maja, Whose team remain third from bottom with 18 points from 23 matches, seven points from safety, told BT Sport: “It’s a big one; we came into the game wanting to win it and had the results we wanted. We are very happy with the win.
“We took our chances when they came and put in another good performance again, we want to continue like this. Wins give the fans and players confidence and we want to take it into the next game.”
