Onuachu earns more points in European Golden Shoe rankings

Super Eagles and FC Midtjylland striker Paul Onuachu has overtaken Sporting Charleroi’s Victor Osimhen in the race for Nigeria’s top scorer in Europe.

 

Osimhen has been leading the chart with 15 goals wjhile Onuachu had 124 goals before heading into a four matches goal drought.

However, Paul scored a brace on Monday night to take his tally to 16, one goal above Southampton and AC Milan target, Victor Osimhen.

Onuachu now has 24 points in the European Golden Shoe rankings, 1.5 more than his nearest Nigerian challenger Osimhen.

Four minutes into the second half, the number 33 volleyed home the equaliser with his left foot from inside the box and netted the game-winning goal shortly past the hour mark with a close-range header.
