Kovacs: It wasn’t my goal!

OVERJOYED Janos Kovacs admitted his excitement got the better of him as he celebrated Francino Francis’ own goal like one of his own in Saturday’s 3-0 victory over Tamworth, writes Mark Wood.

Kovacs had already netted his third goal of the season to put Town 2-0 up, but conceded he had no claims over Francis’ late deflection.

On the number of goals he scored, the defender said: “One, just one. The second goal was an own goal so I just ran away to celebrate it, because as soon as I saw the ball was going into the net I was just happy and ran away and celebrated like it was my goal, but it was an own goal.”
