Ghanaian forward Jerry Afriyie scored on his return from international duty, helping FC Lugo secure a crucial 2-0 win over Zamora at home.
Afriyie’s goal was a welcome boost for Lugo, who are fighting to avoid relegation in the Spanish third tier league.
The Ghanaian international had a disappointing experience with the U-20 national team, which failed to progress to the semifinals of the AFCON tournament after losing to host Egypt in a penalty shootout.
However, Afriyie quickly put the disappointment behind him and scored an important goal for Lugo, showcasing his impressive form and goal-scoring ability.
Afriyie’s goal takes his tally to four goals and two assists in nine games for Lugo, and he has now scored two goals and provided two assists in his last four games for both club and country.
The win moves Lugo to 13th position with 46 points, just one point above the relegation zone.
With only one game left to end the current campaign, all eyes will be on Afriyie as Lugo faces Amorebieta, a team that has already been relegated.
Afriyie’s goals will be crucial in determining Lugo’s fate, and the Ghanaian international will be under pressure to help his team avoid relegation.
Despite the challenges ahead, Afriyie’s recent form has been impressive, and he will be looking to continue his scoring run to help Lugo secure a vital win against Amorebieta.
The match will be a tough test for Lugo, but with Afriyie in their ranks, they will be confident of securing a positive result.
