Hong Kong teen Dai Wai-tsun opened his account for Bury Football Club with a consolation goal in their Checkatrade Trophy loss to fellow League One side Fleetwood Town at Gigg Lane.
Tsun Dai, as he is known in England, lashed home in the 55th minute to bring the score back to 3-2 but the hosts could not find an equaliser to force penalties.
Instead Uwe Rosler’s side are into the last eight and a step closer to the final at Wembley on February 25.
The 18-year-old midfielder, who signed a three-year contract last summer, came on as a half-time substitute in the third round tie and scored his first professional goal ten minutes after entering the fray.

Bury boss Chris Lucketti made nine changes to his struggling Shakers side after their home loss to Plymouth Argyle last Saturday.
Bury sit five points adrift at the bottom of League One and ten points from safety.

Happy to score my first goal for the club tonight...

The former Barcelona Hong Kong soccer school captain has been limited to six appearances so far this season but has impressed after forcing his way into the first-team with his performances in preseason.
Despite the team’s travails Dai’s first professional goal is another personal highlight of his debut season in the first team squad after notching an assist earlier in the campaign.
