Published: April 24, 2022

Allnigeriasoccer.com's review of the Nigeria-eligible players that found the net for their respective European clubs in league matches on Sunday, April 24, 2022.

We begin in Italy. In a mid-table duel between Bologna and Udinese at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara, the Bianconeri came from behind to earn a 2-2 draw.

After Aaron Hickey gave Bologna a fast start, a beautifully-worked move ended with Destiny Udogie slotting home after he was teed up by Isaac Success in the 25th minute.

The visitors got the start they were craving for in the second half as Isaac Success got the goal he deserved, volleying home from close range for 2-1 in the 46th minute.

The Nigeria international has now directly participated in 12 goals (3 goals, 9 assists) in 22 all-competition appearances for Udinese so far this season.

In the French Ligue 1, Moses Simon was involved in two goals as Nantes edged Bordeaux 5-3 in a crazy game at the
Stade de la Beaujoire - Louis Fonteneau (Nantes).

Trailing 3-2, Coulibaly headed in at the far post to bring the game back to parity with Simon providing the assist in the 72nd minute.

And with fourteen minutes remaining, the Super Eagles winger turned from provider to scorer by firing in a brilliant shot to take his goal involvements this season to twelve.

Finally, Emeka Friday Eze netted the game-winning goal after 29 minutes as Ankara Keçiorengucu registered a 1-0 win over Menemenspor in the Turkish First League.

The 25-year-old is the leading scorer for Keçiorengucu in the division with eleven goals.
