Gladson Awako is delighted to be mentioned alongside FC Barcelona’s Lionel Messi in terms of the act of scoring freekick goals.
The Great Olympics captain scored a spectacular free-kick against Hearts of Oak over the weekend as Messi did against Athletic Bilbao and some social media users were quick to draw a comparison between the two.
“I have seen people compare my freekick to that of Lionel Messi and I am excited about that” Gladson Awako told Fox FM.
“Messi is a big player known all over the world and so for people to compare me to him, that is a great feeling” he added.
