Round-up of the Nigerian players that got on the score-sheet in league matches across Europe on Sunday, February 24. Good news for Gernot Rohr ahead of Super Eagles AFCON qualifiers against Seychelles as Nigeria international, Victor Osimhen has reached the double-digit mark for goals in the league for the first time in his young career after finding the net, his tenth of the season, as Sporting Charleroi suffered a 3-1 loss at the hands of St.Truiden in a Belgian First Division A tie at Stayen (Sint-Truiden).
The home team established a two-goal lead after 31 minutes before the Nigeria international halved the deficit eight minutes before half-time. Osimhen fired past the goalkeeper after a fine cross from Ali Gholizadeh and came close to grabbing an equaliser when his effort was saved by Kenny Steppe on 42 minutes.
Elsewhere, new signing Iyayi Atiemwen opened his goalscoring account for Dinamo Zagreb as they claimed a 3-0 win against NK Osijek at Stadion Maksimir. The former Nigeria U23 international, who was making his fourth appearance in all competitions for his new employer, extended Dinamo Zagreb's lead to 2 - 0 in the 21st minute.
FC Midtjylland and FC Copenhagen are neck and neck in the race for the Danish Super Liga title after the defending champions beat AGF 2-1 at Ceres Park (Arhus) on Sunday evening despite playing with two men less for a portion of the second half. Jakob Ankersen's 32nd minute opener was cancelled out by in-form Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu seven minutes before half-time. And the former Dream Team VI invitee netted what proved to be the winning goal in the 53rd minute, taking his tally in all competitions to seventeen goals in the process.
Onuachu's excellent disciplinary record of never picking up a red card since he made his professional debut against Randers in November 2012 ended today after he took the walk of shame in the 67th minute. The lanky striker was first shown a yellow card in the 46th minute and picked up his second booking 21 minutes later which ultimately led to his dismissal. Onuachu played 182 matches as a professional before he was given the matching orders by referee Jorgen Burchardt.
Former Nigeria U23 international Taiwo Awoniyi made it five goals in six matches in the Belgian First Division A after netting the winner for Royal Excel Mouscron as they claimed a 1-0 victory against Sporting Lokeren on Saturday evening. The Liverpool loanee benefited after the Lokeren defense failed to clear the ball from danger following a corner kick in the 52nd minute.
Awoniyi had missed a chance to open the scoring just before half-time after a lovely pass from Manuel Benson and could have doubled the advantage in the 82nd minute but his shot went over the bar. Two minutes later, the number fourteen made way for Haitian attacker Frantzdy Pierrot, and there's a possibility he was replaced to avoid a red card as he was shown yellow in the 21st minute.
Only Victor Osimhen's Sporting Charleroi have stopped Awoniyi from scoring since his return to Royal Excel Mouscron in the January transfer window but he still had an impact in the game. Thanks to their sixth successive win in the Belgian top division, Royal Excel Mouscron have climbed to tenth on the table with 35 points from 27 matches in the regular season.
