Harambee Stars striker Henry Meja scored on his Norrby debut as his team went down 5-2 to Hacken in a preseason friendly staged on Friday evening.
Atola who joined the club on a season-long loan deal started on the bench but was introduced at the interval where he took only two minutes to remind Norrby of his abilities in front of goal.

Hosts Norrby had taken a 20th-minute lead through Max Andersson but Hacken equalized through Sebastien Tipura. Beni Traore was to put the visitors into the lead a minute into the second half but Meja drew his side level in what was to be their last goal of the afternoon. Traore was to grab his brace and Hacken’s third five minutes later with Olden Larsen and Sadiq coming up with the other goals.

Meja will be hoping that his display impressed his new coaches and would want more minutes when they start their Svenska Cupen competition against GIF Sundsvall on 19th February 2023.
