Nottingham Forest youngster Tyler Walker yesterday continued his prolific form in front of goal for loan club Mansfield Town.
The 22-year-old scored twice for the Stags in their emphatic 4-1 win away at play-off chasers Exeter City to extend his season tally to 23.
David Flitcroft's side are currently fourth in League Two, just two points shy of the automatic promotion places.
Walker, who bagged his fifth double of the season against the Grecians, says despite promotion being firmly in sight he is only focused on one thing - scoring goals.
Tyler Walker named in Team of the Season and labelled 'first class' by EFL manager
“I came here to help the lads score goals and luckily enough I’ve done that,” he said.
“There’s six games left and hopefully with the opportunities we’re creating we can get some more.
“I just want to get as many (goals) as I can from now and hopefully achieve promotion.”
CJ Hamilton's two first-half goals came either side of a Matt Jay strike for the home side to give Mansfield a slender lead at the break.
But it was Walker's second-half double that put the game well out of Exeter's reach.
“I got it (the ball) on the edge of the box and luckily enough it went in. I thought it was going to hit the post, to be fair, but it had enough curl on it to creep in.
“You have to wait until it hits the back of the net, though. Like I say, I thought it would hit the post all the way but I’m just happy we got the three points.
“And it’s one of those things as a striker – it’s 12 yards out and you have to back yourself. I enjoy it and I want to score, so I enjoy having that responsibility on my shoulders.
“You choose what you’re going to do and don’t change your mind.”
