Former Gor Mahia striker Benson Omala got off to a dream start for his new side Al-Saffa on Friday after scoring on his debut in a friendly match.The 22-year-old, who earlier this week made headlines by ditching K’Ogalo for a move to Lebanon, made his impact felt by scoring his team’s first goal in a 3-1 victory over Shal Youth at the Al-Safa Stadium.##NAJAVA_MECA_8275704##Qasim Hayek and Islam Al-Batran scored the other team’s goals.The quick start for Omala would indicate that he has settled quite well in Beirut, especially after the general public raised fears over his move to a war-torn country.
