“It was a very happy moment in my career  as a footballer to play in European ties.


“In the Europa league, you get to meet different types of players, and the experience is something you cannot describe.


“My debut game was a moment I can never forget as a young footballer”, Kpozo  told Sports Crusader.


The Sweden-based defensive stalwart has been an ever-present feature at the back for ALK Solna until his recent injury setback.


He is however expected back in league action  soon, having returned to the side in the domestic cup action.


The youngster featured in back-to-back European ties against Bala, Europa and a solitary clash with Panathinaikos.
