Sulemaa who was also adjudged as the man of the match revealed that it has not been easy for him in the last games and the goal against one of the top teams in the country is a big morale booster for him as he continues to improve.
"It was an incredible goal for me against a great team," Sulemana told Canal 9.
"In the last game, I was disappointed with myself but today I am very happy with my output. I am however not pleased because we got a draw as a team."
After scoring, Sulemana ran to the bench to pull a "Black Lives Matter" jersey and he emphasised that he did that in his own way to help fight the racism canker going on round the world.
"There are things that need to be said. You have to send a good message to people, I am glad that there are many who have taken the movement and are trying to make the world a better place for everyone."
"I have not faced racism in Denmark here but you will never know what might happen in future," he added.
Sulemana joined FC Nordsjaelland in February this year from Right to Dream Academy in Ghana and has so far made six league appearances scoring twice.
Although primarily a left-winger, Sulemana can also operate as a centre-forward or a second striker.
