Liberian striker William Jebor opened his goal account for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya in emphatic style on Monday, May 19, 2025, as the Iraqi Premier League giants cruised to a 4-0 win over Duhok SC.
The goal, Jebor’s first for the club, came during his second start since signing for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya, marking a significant breakthrough for the veteran forward. But the former Lone Star captain didn’t stop there. His energetic performance saw him win a penalty and ultimately earn the Man of the Match honor, signaling his growing influence within the team.
Now eight appearances and 260 minutes into his tenure with the Baghdad-based club, Jebor is starting to find his rhythm, much to the delight of fans and coaching staff alike.
Taking to Facebook after the match, Jebor shared his excitement and gratitude. “2nd start, 1st goal and a penalty, plus the man of the match. I’m happy to make an impact when I’m called upon. Great group, thanks guys, we keep moving forward,” he wrote.
Beyond the pitch, Jebor also shared a message of reflection and motivation, posting: “These aren’t just words. They’re choices. One keeps you stuck. The other moves you forward. One builds walls. The other breaks them down. Life will keep offering both.”
Jebor’s football journey has taken him across continents, beginning at LPRC Oilers in Liberia, then to Syria’s Taliya, various clubs in Egypt, and a memorable spell with Al-Ahli Tripoli in Libya. In Europe, he played for Rio Ave in Portugal and Ponferradina in Spain. His name rose to prominence during his time with Morocco’s Wydad Casablanca, where he helped secure the league title and a CAF Champions League trophy.
He later had notable stints with Saudi Arabia’s Al Nassr FC, the UAE’s Al-Fujairah, Nõmme Kalju in Estonia, and Valletta in Malta, consistently showcasing his goal-scoring prowess.
Now plying his trade in Iraq with Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya, Jebor’s recent performance reaffirms his enduring quality and hunger for success — a testament to the longevity of one of Liberia’s most seasoned football exports.
