Playing against one of Africa's greatest teams, Etoile Du Sahel, is no easy task especially when it is your debut as a youngster. But, young Liberian striker Thompson Nagbe seemed to have settled in Tunisia when on his debut for top flight outfit Jeunesse Sportive Kairouanaise (JSK) managed to score against Etoile Du Sahel in a thrilling match in continuation of the Tunisian national league known as Ligue 1.

The lad who was spotted by the club while on trail with Czech Republic Second Division side FK Siab who were unable to meet the demands of the player's Ghanaian club Berekum Chelsea, according to a dispatch from Tunisia was outstanding against Etoile and came on from the bench after 80 minutes to find his side leveller in what was described as a wonderful goal as he used his strength to bewilder the opponents defense in rattling the net before Etoile restored parity to end the match 2-1 in their favor through a goal in the 90th minute.

A host of Newspapers the dispatch further indicated have already said volumes of the young Liberian forward who seems to be heading for bigger things in the North African state.

It can be recollected that on July 17, this year, Nagbe signed a three year dea with the Tunisian side and looks to have settled there so early. JSK was founded in 1942 and has green and white as their official colors. With the early exploits, Nagbe will certainly be idolized at the club's 25,000 capacity Stade Ali Zouaoui where he should be more ominous along with teammates.

With the rising star yet to feature for the Lone Star, he could be on the radar and if he continues such imperious form for club why should he not be given a call to help the red, white and blue outfit, the nation's pride and joy get out of its current lackluster state.
