Augustus Kargbo was introduced in the 58th minute for FC Crotone to bookmark his first-ever appearance on the biggest stage of Italian club football.

Genoa dominated as they displaced class over their counterparts with a comfortable 4-1 win over newly-promoted FC Crotone at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium on Sunday.

Goals from Mattia Destro 4,’ Goran Pandev 9′, David Zappacosta 34′, and Marco Pjaca 75′ were enough, as they open their Seria Campaign with a big win.

Kargbo started on the bench and replaced Emmanuel Riviere, who scored in the 38th minute with a tap-in for the visitors.

The 21-year-old sensation has added to a strong list of Sierra Leoneans footballers with Serie A experience. The likes of Mohamed Kallon, Kewullay Conteh, and Rodney Strasser.

Crotone’s next outing is against AC Milan at home and Kargbo surely will be hoping thing go their way on Sunday the 27th.
