Zoko was described to have impressed in the fixture, whilst managing to regularly hold the ball up, showed his class along with skill to create many opportunities.

Unfortunately for the player, that was his only game to date as the season ended up being suspended and then null and void by the Football Association.

Newark ended up finishing the season in 4th place, picking up 54 points from 30 games played.

Zoko adds a wealth of experience having made over 300 English Football League appearances, 600 in total throughout the whole of his footballing career, scoring a total of 119 goals along the way too.
