Allnigeriasoccer.com's round up of the Nigerian players who were on target for their respective clubs in league matches across Europe on Wednesday, September 22.

In a Belgian First Division A clash at Bosuilstadion (Deurne), Paul Onuachu's brace was in vain as Racing Genk were beaten 4-2 by Antwerp despite the Nigeria international opening and closing the scoring against his favorite opponents in Belgium.

Thirteen minutes in, the Nigerian Federation Best Performer of the Year drilled home on the turn to make it 1-0 and scored his eighth career goal against Antwerp when he converted a penalty kick ten minutes from time.

In a French Ligue 1 match, Montpellier and Girondins de Bordeaux shared the points in a thrilling 3-3 draw at the Stade de la Mosson.

On as a substitute at half-time, Samuel Kalu showed great skill in the box to fire home with five minutes remaining to salvage a draw for the visitors.

Olympiakos, with Super Eagles winger Henry Onyekuru in the starting line-up, were 4-1 winners at home to Apollon Smyrnis in the Greek Super League

Goals from Masouras and Tiquinho Soares (2) had Olympiakos in control of the game, before Abiola Dauda pulled a goal back in the 79th minute.

Wearing the captain's armband, Dauda tapped in from close range after the Olympiakos goalkeeper palmed out the ball into his path.
