Ahadme Nets Debut Cambridge Goal - Ipswich Town News
On-loan Blue striker Gassan Ahadme netted a debut goal for Cambridge United as they defeated Oxford United 2-0 on the opening day of the season at the Abbey Stadium.
Ahadme, who is with the U’s for the season, netted his side’s second goal in the 28th minute, adding to former Blues forward Jack Lankester’s 15th-minute opener as the U’s impressed against ex-Town academy coach Liam Manning’s side.
Elsewhere, Idris El Mizouni played the full 90 minutes for his loan side Leyton Orient as they were beaten 1-0 at Charlton, for whom another on-loan Blues midfielder, Panutche Camara, came on as a 71st-minute sub. Joe Pigott, who left Town and joined the O’s this summer, made his debut and played the first 70 minutes.
Blues defender Corrie Ndaba was in the Kilmarnock side which beat Rangers 1-0 in the Scottish Premiership at Rugby Park this evening, a very memorable league debut for Killie for the Irishman.
Young Town defender Cameron Stewart came on as a half-time sub for Cove Rangers in Scottish League Division One.
