Bafana Bafana winger Thapelo Maseko was lost for words after a positive start to life with FC Copenhagen as he made his UEFA Conference League debut on Thursday evening.
Maseko, 22, made his Danish Superliga debut this past weekend and followed up with a cameo in their second leg Conference League qualifier against FC Inter Turku from Finland.
They ran out 4-1 winners, with the former Mamelodi Sundowns and SuperSport United talent forcing an own goal in the final minute of the encounter.
“Yeah amazing, amazing feeling a wonderful feeling to play in front of the FC Copenhagen fans, it was incredible, almost like I’m dreaming, I’m thankful to the guys, the warm reception welcome to the club – they have been amazing,” Maseko said after his UEFA Conference League debut, as per FCK.
“It’s always a great feeling to play my first time in Europe, it was wonderful, there isn’t many words I can use to express how I feel right now but I’m very happy!”
Maseko will now be aiming to earn his first start for the Danish giants ahead of the upcoming Bafana squad announcement set to be made in the coming weeks.
