Red Hot Onuachu Bangs Goal No 22 In Genk 3-2 Win Over Zulte Waregem

Red hot Paul Onuachu has banged goal no 22 in Genk 3-2 win over Zulte Waregem in the Belgium Jupiler encounter at Luminus Arena.

The 26-year-old Super Eagles striker opened the scoring in the 45th minute before he completes his brace seven minutes after the restart of the second stanza of the clash on Wednesday night.

Junya Ito made it three goals for Genk in the 67th minute which seemed to awake Zulte-Waregem as they launched an attempted comeback after the Japanese’s strike.
