Newcastle midfielder Matty Longstaff is delighted to be off the mark for Mansfield.
The Newcastle academy graduate scored in the 48th minute to seal victory for Nigel Clough's men against Bradford City.
Longstaff's loan spell at Aberdeen was brought to an early close after a disappointing spell north of the border.
Nonetheless, the 21-year-old loanee hasn't let that deter him and has been impressive for the Stags since joining the League Two side on loan in January.
“I'm absolutely loving it [here]" Longstaff told Mansfield Town's official website. “The manager and his staff have been unbelievable.
“The lads are great to work with every day, they're top players and I'm loving it."
When asked if his goal took a deflection, Longstaff said: “I think so, but you'll take it."
“I think Oatsey (Rhys Oates) did well to screen the 'keeper. [It was] a bit of a scruffy one but you take them.
“It was [a] great feeling [but] the most important thing is [the] three points though obviously.
“Our goal is promotion, so we know that we've got to win games. We probably should've won last week [so] it was a big thing to come here in front of a big crowd and win."
