Former Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips was delighted for Micah Hamilton after his goalscoring debut in midweek.
Hamilton started and scored in City's Champions League win at Red Star Belgrade.
SWP told City's website: "He's been hanging out there waiting for the ball and made all the right decisions," he stated.
He did the first shimmy and the defender stayed with him he did it again and let fire. That's all you've got to do as an attacking player is work the keeper. He has what he deserves in the game."
Fellow former City player Nedum Onuoha also said: "That's an amazing moment.
He was on the bench against Young Boys. Now he's persisted starting in Belgrade in a tough game.
He isolated the defender with a great turn of feet. Feigns him twice. Great goal and moment.
Knee-slide and a moment he'll never forget, Hopefully the start of more to come."
