Masoud Juma: Harambee Stars Striker Scores on Debut to Deliver Victory for Lebanese Side

Harambee Striker Masoud Juma had a dream debut for his new Lebanese side Al Nejmeh as he scored the winning goal in his first match on Sunday.

Juma, who recently joined the club after leaving Kenyan side Migori Youth, made his first start for Al Nejmeh and it was immediate impact as he scored in the 85th minute to deliver victory for them against Al-Safa.

The Kenyan striker received a long ball with his back to goal, chested it down and made a swift run into the box, striking in first time, which the goalkeeper parried away, but he slotted home from the rebound.

With the goal coming five minutes from time, there was little Al Safa could do to salvage a point as Al Nejmeh took home all three to record back-to-back victories as they started the season with two wins from as many games.

The goal sent fans into ecstasy with Juma celebrating with them and it looks like he could become a fan favourite if he maintains the good run.

Juma, who announced last week that he will be contesting the Isiolo North Parliamentary seat in the 2027 elections, is beginning a new chapter of his career in Lebanon, having also played for clubs in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Libya and Morocco.

The former Kariobangi Sharks striker signed a one-year deal with Al Nejmeh and will be looking to make the most of it to earn him an extended stay or even a more lucrative move elsewhere at the end of the campaign.
