Junior Lokosa was left almost speechless after scoring a brace for Sporting Lagos in the 3-0 win against his former club, Kano Pillars.
Lokosa had a memorable time with the Sai Masu Gida during the 2018 Nigeria Premier Football League season.
He netted 19 times to win the top scorer award during that campaign.
The 30-year-old, who did not celebrate after scoring the two goals, admitted it was a tough moment for him.

“I felt very happy scoring for my team Sporting Lagos, Kano Pillars is also my team,” he told DAILY POST in Lagos
“The name I have today is from Kano Pillars, it is emotional for me and I feel pained but this is my job.
“I want to appreciate the fans for the support throughout the encounter.”
He has scored three goals this season.
Meanwhile, Sporting Lagos striker, Junior Lokosa, has recently shown his appreciation to an NPFL expert for drawing attention to his challenging statistics this season.
In a candid and short response to the analysis, Lokosa acknowledged his struggles through his social media account.
The NPFL veteran came across the facts regarding his form for Lagos-based newly promoted side, Sporting Lagos.
NPFL journalist known as Mike The Pundit took to the social media platform, X.com, to compare the performance of Lokosa to in-form Remo Stars forward, Sikiru Alimi.
Per his analysis, Remo’s decision to ditch Lokosa, who spent a season with the Sky Blues, for Super Eagles forward, Alimi, has proven to be shrewd.
“Coach Daniel Ogunmodede ensured to sanction the move of Sikiru Alimi following his transfer to Sporting Lagos after requesting what the coach termed as a “staggering salary” Sporting Lagos would go on to pay the salary and sign Lokosa with Remo Stars going for Alimi,” Mike posted on X.com.
