Algerian tells of joy at scoring first goal

Abdelkader Ghezzal has set his sights on a successful career with Bari after scoring his first goal for the club. The Algerian forward joined Bari last summer after playing in the World Cup but endured a frustrating first few months with the Serie A club. He finally broke his duck with a crucial strike at the weekend that salvaged a 1-1 draw for Bari at home to Fiorentina. Bari remain bottom of the league but Ghezzal's goal boosted their chances of survival and he has now spoken of his delight.

Scream

"I can now scream," he said. "It has been a difficult time for me so far, so I am very happy to score my first goal for Bari. "I would like to thank everyone. I was doubting myself a bit, when you are a forward and you do not score a goal, it plays in your mind, but I want to say thank you to everyone. "I hope it is the start of many goals in this league. "It is not easy to settle in a new league but I can deliver for sure."
