Nigerian Exports: King Of Assists Olayinka, K. Nwakali, Osayi-Samuel, Delfouneso Strike
Published: April 28, 2018
Allnigeriasoccer.com's roundup on the Nigerian players that were on target for their respective foreign clubs in league matches on Saturday, April 28.
Bright Osayi-Samuel will certainly be delighted after netting his first-ever goal in the EFL Championship as Queens Park Rangers claimed a 3-1 win at home to Birmingham City.
The visitors went in front through Che Adams in the 27th minute but their lead lasted just one minute after Osayi-Samuel fired a shot into the bottom corner to make it 1-1. He was replaced in the 69th minute.
Over to the EFL League One, ex-Aston Villa youngster Nathan Delfouneso netted a 56th minute equalizer as Blackpool claimed a share of the spoils in a 1-1 draw with Shrewsbury Town at Bloomfield Road.
The striker thought his goal was chalked off for offside but the referee overruled the decision of his assistant.
In the Netherlands, ex-Flying Eagles captain Kelechi Nwakali netted his fifth of the season in all competitions but it wasn't enough, with MVV losing 2-1 at Ajax Amsterdam II.
The attacking midfielder converted a spot-kick in the 63rd minute.
Elsewhere, in the Belgium First Division A, Peter Olayinka has a hand in 24 goals (9 goals, 15 assists) from 35 appearances for Zulte-Waregem this season after writing his name on the score-sheet in their 2-1 win at Taiwo Awoniyi's Royal Excel Mouscron.
The Gent loanee grabbed the winner in the 66th minute off an assist from Hamalainen.
