Belgian Jupiler: Dessers Scores Again, Onuachu Bags Assists As Genk Thrash Antwerp To Remain In Title Race

Cyriel Dessers got on the score sheet again while Paul Onuachu provided two assists in Genk’s 4-0 home win against Royal Antwerp, in the Belgian League title play-off on Thursday, Completesports.com reports.

Dessers scored in Genk’s 2-1 win at Anderlecht five days ago.

He replaced Onuachu on 74 minutes and scored just a minute late to put Genk 4-0 ahead.

Onuachu set up his side’s second and third goals on 49 and 64 minutes respectively.

The win means Genk remain in second position on 41 points, two points behind Club Brugge, in the four-team League title play-off.

Genk will take on Club Brugge away in their last game of the play-off on Sunday.

They will hope Club Brugge lose away to Anderlecht in today’s other fixture to stand a chance of emerging champions of the Belgian league this season.

    Never for once doubted DESSERS talent. His time is coming and no one can take it from him God willing. Onuachu though didn’t score but gave some virtuoso performance. Proud of you two. Worthy n Deserving SE players. God bless.

    Dessers is a quality striker. His goal was class. The ball came down from the sky, and his first touch allowed him to settle himself despite the vigorous attentions of the defender chasing him, and he placed the ball neatly past the goalie.
    His off the ball movement was excellent. Kept moving, never stands in one place.
    Rohr will have to keep tabs on this guy. Looks like the beast we all know is there is finally awakening.
    Great performance from Onu-Goal as well. He actually had 3 assists, and not 2, because on 2 occasions, he was a total nuisance in the box, and forced mistakes from the opponent’s defense and goalie, which Thorstvedt took advantage of to grab 2 goals. And on the third assist, he made a well weighted pass to release Thorstvedt to complete his hattrick.

    Dessers has always being the rough diamond who needs the games to shine. Brother is now hitting form which is good. Onugoal is also a fantastic provider. I and I will always pray for them and other deserving SE Players. Jah bless them all. The Super Eagles has the deadliest attacking line up in Africa. We are going to rule Africa again. Hallelujah!

    • Greenturf 3 years ago

      We also need a deadly midfield to compliment the attack to rule Africa or don’t you think so?

    It is evident to see how some popular individuals who always jump to hurl insults on a great achiever like Paul Onuachu will never be found on threads about how well the guy is doing drawing praise from serious people wey matter even Lazio and AC Milan no fit sleep over him matter… the day Onuachu becomes Player of the season in Belgium, some will have real nightmares in their sleep… Lol. Paulo carry go… those wey know, can tell a smart iconic player when they see one… Your template goal versus Egypt in a friendly suppose tell these naysayers say your football brain dey rugged and icy… keep helping them with humbling nightmares! Hehehehe… Paul “Goal Demon” Onuachu… he keeps collapsing attack into goals… them go salute by force!

    NO DOUBT DESSERS IS A 100% QUALITY STRIKER. NOW THAT WE HAVE ALOT OF STRIKRS FOR SUPER EAGLE DOING WELL FOR THEIR RESPECTIVE CLUBS IN EUROPE, THE NUMBER ONE FACTOR WE HAVE TO CONSIDER IS THE “POTENTIAL IF THE PLAYER”. NOT JUST SCORING GOALS ALONE. REMEMBER AMOKACHI, AGHAHOWA, UTAKA, OSAZE THEN. HOW MANY GOALS THESE PLAYERS ARE SCORING…..BUT THEIR POTENTIALS IS UNMEASURABLE AND INCOMPARABLE.
    *†*Potential is d most important*†*

  • Desser should get ready to take over from onuachu when he leaves the team. Genk are fortunate to have a quality back up for onuachu. They dont have to spend big in the transfer window to buy a quality striker. All they need to do is look for a young up and coming player and bring him as an understudy to desser while they reserve the big transfer fee they will get from pauls sale for other things.
