It would be recalled that the Hale End Academy product scored his second goal in the colours of Sint Truiden against same opponents back in April and he could have gotten a double here had goaltender, Sinan Bolat not denied him.
His latest act continues to bolster his stock as he prepares to bid The Canaries farewell in return to the Emirates Stadium where he would hope to work his way back into first team contention under a new club manager.
