The Lazio midfielder scored in his club’s 3-2 defeat of St Etienne in
Thursday’s game in Rome and gives himself good vibes ahead of Nigeria’s
next internationals.
Ogenyi Onazi scored his first goal in European club competition during Lazio’s 3-2 defeat of St Etienne in the Europa League at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome on Thursday night.
The midfielder scored the equalizing goal in the 22nd minute after Moustapha Sall had put the visitors ahead earlier in the sixth minute.
Onazi pounced on a rebound in the St Etienne box and shot past the goalkeeper before the French side had two players sent off as the Italians scored twice more to seal victory.
The Nigerian was subbed-off in the 74th minute as coach Stefano Pioli sent on striker Danilo Cataldi in search of more goals.
He later dedicated the goal to Nigeria’s 55th independence anniversary celebrations on Twitter.
