Henry Onyekuru was the star of the show on Friday in the Saudi Pro League as he scored a goal and provided an assist in Al Feiha’s 2-1 win over Al Akhdoud.
The Nigeria international joined from Turkish Super Lig side Adana Demirspor this summer and scored his first al Feiha goal in the 1-1 draw with Odion Ighalo’s Al-Wehda before the international break.
He made it back-to-back goals when he opened the scoring against Al Akhdoud in the 29th minute with a clinical finish.

Fellow Nigeria Godwin Saviour equalised for Al Akhdoud in added time of the first half but Onyekuru made the difference in the 66th minute as he fed the ball to Zambian forward Fashion Sakala to net the winner with a curling effort.
