Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus is excited with West Ham United's victorious start in the Europa League. Kudus played a pivotal role in the Hammers' comeback win, scoring his debut goal in their 3-1 victory against Serbian side Backa Topola at the London Stadium.

This match marked Kudus's first start for the club since joining during the summer transfer window from Ajax. Speaking in a post-match interview, he commented on the team's performance:

"In the first half, we had most of the game, but we couldn't create a lot in the final third. We knew we had to do better in the second half, and you could see we created some good chances."

He praised the team's preparation, especially against a strong opponent like Backa Topola, and emphasized the importance of adhering to the team's principles. Kudus also discussed his role in the first goal:

"On the first goal, I don't know if it's mine, but the ball touched me a little bit, then I just turned and the ball was in the goal. I just had to be there at the back post."

Kudus revealed that he had discussed positioning with teammate Saïd Benrahma before the game, and it paid off with his goal. He also highlighted the impact of James Ward-Prowse's delivery on set-pieces, acknowledging the team's chances to score from such situations.

West Ham's win against Backa Topola marked a positive start to their Europa League campaign, and Kudus is eager to focus on the next game.
