Former Kaizer Chiefs defender Aden McCarthy expressed his delight after scoring his first goal in the UEFA Champions League. The 22-year-old, who recently joined Azerbaijan club Sabah FK from Chiefs, opened the scoring in a 2-1 defeat against Borussia Dortmund in Baku. McCarthy's goal came from a free kick in the 39th minute, just one of three Champions League appearances he has made for Sabah so far this season.
