Chelsea Loanee Most Successful Season As A Pro Continues With Another Goal For Roda JC

Published: February 29, 2020

Ike Ugbo's most successful season in terms of goalscoring since turning professional continued on Friday night as he got on the scoresheet for Roda JC in a comprehensive 5-0 victory over Dordrecht at Parkstad Limburg Stadion (Kerkrade), allnigeriasoccer.com reports.

In doing so, the Nigerian frontman took his haul for the season to 13 goals in the Dutch Eerste Divisie, that's more than triple his tally combined during his loan spells at Scunthorpe United, Milton Keynes Dons and Barnsley.

Sixty-seven minutes into the contest, Ugbo planted a header past goalkeeper Havekotte, assisted by Jordy Croux, to make it 3-0.

With victory all but assured, the former England U17 international made way for Ivan Prtajin at minute 74.

Having scored 37 percent of Roda JC's goals in the Dutch second-tier, they will be banking on his goals to save them from relegation.

Ten matches to the end of the regular season, Roda are 17th in the 20-team table with 22 points from 28 games.
