Both teams had Nigerian played heading into the game, with Arokodare leading the line for the Smurfs, while Raphael Onyedika featured in defence for Club Brugge.

Genk dominated the first half and created the better chances. Eventually, Arokodare scored the opener for them in the 28th minute. The Nigerian striker showed his great striker’s instinct to latch onto a cross from Jarne Steuckers and placed a clean finish into the bottom-right corner to make it 1-0.
