Juventus forward Openda celebrates first goal in win at Bodo/Glimt

Lois Openda celebrated his first goal for Juventus as the Bianconeri overcame a challenging fixture against Bodo Glimt to secure a vital 3 points in the Champions League.

The Belgian striker’s breakthrough highlighted not only his personal resilience but also Juventus’ collective effort in the group stage as they picked up their first win of the campaign.

Juventus won the game 3-2, with Jonathan David scoring the winner for the Bianconeri in stoppage time.

“I’m happy for my first goal, but the most important thing was the win. We did it together,” Openda said after the match, via IlBianconero.

His words reflect the mentality behind Juventus’ disciplined performance, showing how individual moments of quality can emerge from strong teamwork.

Openda admitted the path to this milestone had not been simple. “It hasn’t been easy because I hadn’t scored, but I’m grateful for the support from the club and my family. I know I’m at one of the most important teams, and I know what I have to do. Today, I think I showed it.”

The striker also emphasised his readiness to seize opportunities. “I’m ready for any chance I get to play. Today it came, and I scored. I’m happy because we also brought home our first points in the Champions League,” he said.

Juventus will look to build on this positive momentum as they continue their European campaign. Openda’s goal not only provides a confidence boost for the player himself but also reinforces the team’s attacking options.
