Nigerian Exports: Ahmed Musa, Hope Akpan, Arokoyo & Fred Friday On Target For Euro Clubs
Published: May 06, 2018
Catch up on the Nigerian players that were on target for their respective foreign clubs on Sunday 6th, May.
We start off at the Deepdale Stadium where Hope Akpan's effort was not enough to save Burton Albion from relegation following a 2-1 defeat to Preston North End in their EFL Championship final day clash.
The Brewers were primed to stay up after the former Super Eagles midfielder's 63rd minute equalizer, his second consecutive goal tally but Louis Moult struck at the death to send them down to League One.
In the Swedish Allsvenskan, defender, Gbenga Arokoyo hit the winner for Kalmar FF in a 2-1 win over Dalkurd.
The 25-year old settled the tensed clash with his 62nd goal off a Herman Hallberg assist.
Elsewhere, Fred Friday got in among the goals for Sparta Rotterdam in a 5-2 loss to Heracles at the Sparta-Stadion Het Kasteel in a Dutch Eredivisie game.
The Ex-Dream Team VI invitee opened the scoring in the goal fest, grabbing a 25th minute effort after he was teed up by Miquel Nelom, the goal was his fourth in 14 league outings for the club.
Finally, Super Eagles attacker, Ahmed Musa continued his hot streak of goalscoring form with another double for CSKA Moscow in a 6-0 trouncing of Arsenal Tula at the VEB-Arena.
The 25-year scored just 11 minutes in courtesy of a Vitinho assist before rounding off the rout four minutes after the restart when he was played through by Fedor Chalov.
