The former Nigeria youth international continued with his impressive goalscoring form to power Rojiblancos past the White and Reds
Former Nigeria U23 striker Sadiq Umar provided a goal and an assist as Almeria secured a 2-1 away victory over Girona in Monday’s La Liga Smartbank game.
Heading into the game, Umar had scored three goals in his last two outings – to shoulder Rojiblancos’ aspirations of securing a return to the Spanish elite division.
As expected, the fixture got off to a flying note as both teams chased an early lead. Nonetheless, the first 45 minutes ended goalless at the Estadi Montilivi.
