It seems to be a dream come true for youngster Momo Blamo, as he has won another accolade in his soccer journey– his debut season of the 2nd top-tier of Liberia, the Orange National League-2nd Division in Liberia.
Blamo, Tony FC’s prolific goal scoring machine finished the 2022/23 Orange Second Division league season as the top scorer in his first season.
This rising star joined Tony FC from Upper-Margibi County third division club FC Quincy during the start of the 2022-2023 new season, where he penned a two-year deal with Tony FC after a mouthwatering deal from FC Quincy.
The former Golden Boot winner of the LFA- Margibi County SubAssociation Third Division League Blamo enjoyed a good start to life with his new employer Tony FC as he notched 29 goals in 27 league matches for club.
The Margibi County forward Blamo drew the attention on the national scene in such a bigger competition since he arrived as he went on to clinch his first golden boot award in the second-division league.
Blamo went on to surpass former golden boot winner, mentee and teammate, Abraham Kamara’s 28 goals record to win such award previously.
This young and upcoming star becomes the first player in his debut season for Tony FC to notch 30 goals in all competitions, becoming the team’s top goal scorer and to also clinch such prestigious individual award.
Blamo scored 30 goals in all competition for club Tony FC with 29 in the league and 1 in the Orange Cup in 28 appearances for club in all competition.
Despite scoring 29 goals in the league Blamo registered five (5) hat-tricks to climax the league season.
He is now the second player in a row for Tony FC to win such award with Abraham Kamara becoming the first to clinch such accolade.
The 2022-2023 Orange National League-2nd Division top goal scorer, Blamo becomes the third Margibi County player to win the Orange Second division league top scorer award in succession following the likes of Ousman Kamara who won it in the 2020/21 league season and Abraham Kamara who also won it in the 2021/22 league season as well.
