Super Eagles Striker Emenike says He wants to score more goals

Super Eagles striker Emmanuel Emenike has vowed he will not stop fighting to score goals after he scored his first goal in 10 weeks for Turkish champions Fenerbache.

The former Karabukspor forward justified his inclusion in Fenerbahce's starting line-up on Tuesday in a Turkish Cup semifinal when he scored the opener in his side's 2-1 win at Bursaspor.

He has now scored a total of six goals this season.

Emenike told AfricanFootball.com, "I have accepted it the way it comes, it was not a fair season for me but I think my confidence and energy remains. When I'm on the pitch, the fighting spirit remains and I see my confidence increasing but to be fair I still have more to give.

"There's a big priority for me as a Fenerbahce player and I keep giving my best for the team. My contribution and commitment can really turns to be good omen for me. I'm not distracted, and I will not."

The former Spartak Moscow striker has dedicated his goal against Bursaspor to the victims of Xenophobia attacks in South Africa.

"In the world today, one game brings us together as one. My goal is to the family of those who have lost their lives in South Africa as I plead for the end of violence on the continent," the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations winner said
