#FCCincy forward/wingback Kenji Mboma Dem has been staying ready to make the most of opportunities when they come. Pat Noonan said he could be an option for minutes at forward vs. Chicago w/ Kevin Denkey out on RC suspension. More in my preview notebook👇https://t.co/QoTTRJ5WmR

Pat Noonan said today that with Kévin Denkey suspended this weekend, both Dado Valenzuela & Kenji Mboma Dem are options for FC Cincinnati to fill that spot.

“They are,” Noonan said. “Both of them have been talked about pretty consistently as far as options.”#AllForCincy #CF97

Kenji Mboma Dem says that he realized there would be an opportunity to score when Ayoub Jabbari came up with the ball & 4 defenders moved towards Evander.

Says he knew if he just kept running he’d find the open space & be available in a dangerous area.#AllForCincy #TORvCIN

Noonan praised Kenji postgame for being ready for his opportunity despite not getting regular action.#AllForCincy #TORvCIN

Kenji Mboma Dem says postgame his goal was made extra special by the assist coming from Ayoub Jabbari, who he has formed a very tight bond with at FCC.

“That's my brother,” Kenji says. “I keep being thankful to him for everything, on and off the field.”#AllForCincy #TORvCIN

90 +2' - Really nice finish by Kenji Mboma Dem off Ayoub Jabbari's assist. Nick Haggland had a huge clearance at the other end to spark #FCCincy. 1-1
