Mamunul Islam gets rewarded for scoring a beautiful goal when the Abahani Limited midfielder was adjudged the winner of this week’s Goal of the Week, presented by Allianz for the 2019 AFC Cup, after a public vote on the AFC’s official website.

Mamunul scored a stunning goal in Abahani’s fifth AFC Cup group round match against Nepal champion Manang Marshyangdi Club Wednesday where the Bangladesh giant won 5-0.

Following a backpass from Nigerian striker Sunday Chizoba, Mamunul unleashed a powerful left-footer from 20 yards out that hit the net through the right edge.

“I really worked hard in the last few months to get back my old form. It’s good to score two goals in international competition and the better feeling is that we also won the games. It’s an honor to win Goal of the Week award. I want to keep the form for the rest of the season,” said Mamunul.

Goals from four players – Mohammad Al Wakid of Syria’s Al Jaish SC, Samuel Lalmuanpuia of India’s Minerva Punjab, Dilshod Vasiev of Tajikistan’s FC Khujand and Mamunul of Bangladesh’s Abahani – were uploaded by the AFC for voting by the public, where Mamunul got 52 percent votes out of 15520 votes cast which ended midway through middle of Jun 21.
