Nigeria international Anthony Ujah has now netted four goals in seven games in Germany’s second - tier after scoring a brace on Monday night as Cologne thrashed Energie Cottbus 4 - 0.

Now, the 22 - year - old attacker has set his sights on Cologne being crowned winter champions.

“I am very happy for the victory as its our second consecutive win with 8 goals from two matches.

“We are getting better game by game our target is to be on the first position by Christmas and if we continue playing as we currently do I am sure we will achieve our target of promotion.

“Personally I’m happy for my two goals.... My aim is to keep fighting and improving,”Anthony Ujah said to allnigeriasoccer.com.

Ujah’s other strikes came in consecutive matches against Dynamo Dresden and Fortuna Düsseldorf back in July.
