Super Eagles and Genk centre-forward, Toluwalase Emmanuel Arokodare, scored his 20th goal of the season in his side’s Genk-Gent derby win, Soccernet.ng reports.

The 24-year-old lanky striker is enjoying his most prolific career season with the Belgian side, crowning it with a call-up to the Nigerian National team, even making his debut during the March International break.

On return to action in club football, the former Koln striker fired Thorsten Fink’s side to a 4-0 win over their rivals in the Belgian Pro League play-offs.

It wasn’t a smooth ride for Arokodare, as he missed from twelve yards earlier in the game, but a brilliant turn saw him score his 20th goal across all competitions this season, which is a career-high for him.

Jarne Steuckers missed a penalty kick in the 15th minute, while Arokodare stepped up eight minutes later, but his effort was just wide off the left. However, as the game grew, Genk dominated.
