Kewell Scores On Turkish Debut

Kewell Scores On Turkish Debut

SOCCEROO Harry Kewell has become an instant hero at his new club Galatasaray by coming off the bench as a sub and immediately scoring on his debut.

His new Turkish champion side had been held in a stalemate deadlock against Kayseri in the Super Cup fixture until Kewell's entry after 66 minutes.

With Galatasaray deep in Kayseri's territory, Hasan Sas delivered a cross from the byline that seemed to overshoot the goal.

But unmarked on the end of it was Kewell to power home a header that smashed into the net.

After scoring within seconds of taking to the field, Kewell went on to play brilliantly in midfield and down the left side.

Galatasaray scored again 10 minutes later from a Nonda breakaway, thanks to an assist from Harry Kewell.

In the 30 minutes he was on the field he raised the game to a different level with his man of the match performance.

The Turkish league proper starts next week. Kewell missed an earlier chance through injury to debut for his club in their Euro tie midweek.

Most overrated player in modern times. Had potential when he was at Leeds but became a joke when he was collecting wads of cash for not doing anything at Liverpool. No one even cares what he does anymore.

must agree with getborn. you cannot label somebody a legend just because they may be the best player from their country.

ahah ok. i rate him anyway. when he is fit, i think he is very dangerous. hopefully he can prove many people wrong and regain some of his old form for new club galatasaray.

kewell will always be a champion to australians. you can't deny that he has been one of the best players to come out of australia. if he didn't get injured so much, he would be one of the most dangerous wingers in the game but he was just unlucky. you people can't give him shit. he has done so much for australian soccer. harry kewell will forever be a champion in this country

Craig Johnstone for me was the best player Australia ever produced, shame he didn't play for the socceroos. Johnstone >>>>> Kewell

One of my favourite goals ever was his outside of the foot chip against Sheffield Wednesday.

Absolute class.
