Kehinde Fatai Delivers Stunning Performance with a Brace in FC Ufa’s Dominant Victory
In a commanding display of skill and finesse, Nigerian striker Kehinde Fatai propelled Russian football club FC Ufa to a resounding 7-0 triumph over Cypriot top-flight side Alki Oroklinis in a friendly encounter on Monday.
Fatai, 27, showcased his scoring prowess by netting Ufa’s fourth and sixth goals with clinical precision, leaving an indelible mark on the match in the 65th and 85th minutes, respectively. The former Sparta Prague player’s stellar performance underscores his significance in the team’s offensive arsenal.
Despite Fatai’s recent goal-scoring exploits in the friendly, it is noteworthy that the Nigerian striker has yet to find the back of the net in the 14 league appearances he has made for FC Ufa. Nevertheless, his invaluable contributions on the pitch have played a pivotal role in the team’s current standing, with FC Ufa positioned at sixth place in the Russian top-flight league table, boasting a commendable 27 points.
As FC Ufa gears up for the second half of the Russian league season, they are slated to commence the post-break action with a home fixture against Dinamo Moscow on March 4. The anticipation is palpable as fans eagerly await to witness if Fatai’s electrifying form in the friendly clash will translate into league success, potentially breaking his goal-scoring drought in official competitions.
