Freetown — Sierra Leone Sweden-based striker, Ibrahim Teteh Bangura outclassed Halmstad to score a quadruple as his side, AIK Solna, routed their opponents 4-0 to move into third place in the Swedish Premier League on Monday.

Teteh, who has endured scoring in three weeks consultatively for his Swedish club, opened his scoring again on Monday 12 minutes into the first half after countryman Mohamed ‘Poborsky’ Bangura’s shot hit the post from the right, which Teteh wasted no time to nod in the far post.

Two minutes later, after a pattern of attacks in which the Sierra Leonean duo found each other in a beautiful combination display, Teteh grabbed his second but his celebration ended in a sore note after Mohamed ‘Poborsky’ got injured after the goal.

However, despite his injured companion, Teteh recorded his hat-trick after the half hour mark from the penalty spot.

The final goal came few minutes later after he got the ball from teammate Martin Mutumba in the center of Halmstad’s court, he advanced a few meters away and pressed hard, then slotting the ball in goalkeeper Karl-Johan Johnson’s right after he had ripped him down in one corner and then put the ball in the other corner.

“We do a very good job. We support each other and sacrifice ourselves for each other,” Teteh told Canal + at half time. He said he would try to achieve this personal best by scoring four goals in one match.

The four goals saw him now level at the top of the scoring chart with Mathias Ranégie, with both having 14 goals apiece this season. “Now I bet on to win the golden boot,” declared Teteh Bangura after the match.
