Armstrong Okoflex was delighted to score for West Ham United in their friendly win at Celtic.

The winger has just signed for West Ham this summer from the Hoops.

He told West Ham TV after the 6-2 win: "It was a brilliant moment for me.

“I've worked hard this pre-season, I got gifted this opportunity which I'm grateful and I was just really excited to come on and I was happy with the goal.

“I think I found out about the [Celtic] fixture after I signed, but once I saw the fixture I was like 'I need to make the squad!' so I was happy I made the squad and I'm grateful for the opportunity."

“Today was a special day. In Scotland, the rules are still tough, so they only had 18,000 when they usually have 60,000 here. It was always special to come and play here and I just happened to get on the scoresheet and that's something I've been working on, so it's just nice to score."
