Striker Gabriel Matata sets personal targets at Onduparaka Football Club
Newly signed Onduparaka Football Club striker Gabriel Matata, 19, has set his personal target at West Nile based top flight club.
The former Mvara Boys Football Club lethal forward joined the Caterpillars on a year-long deal, shredding off interest from Express FC among other clubs.
He is well aware of the expectations of the fans from him and believes he will work hard to achieve the set targets.
Matata scored 14 goals in all competitions for the Arua based Mvara Boys and was key for the club’s smooth ride in the Uganda Cup competition where they also eliminated a top tier club, BUL during the round of 32 stage.
With what I have achieved at regional level, the expectations of fans over me is high. I hope to replicate the same performance or even do better.

Target:
Every person in life has his or her prime target. Matata’s targets are two; first is to pay back the trust vested unto him and then to score as many goals as possible so that he hits the double figures.
My target is to reward the trust they (Onduparaka Football Club) have put in me. I want to clock two figure goals.
