Paul Onuachu has declared he is not a dribbler but he is paid to get the goals after he scored his 22nd goal in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League.
The Genk giant striker scored a brace in a 3-2 home win against Zulte-Waregem Wednesday night.
“Scoring is my job, hey”, Onuachu said at the post-match conference after the narrow home victory.
“I realise better than anyone that I am not a player who will dribble a few players myself … I need my teammates to score.”
He also spoke of his two goals on the night.
“With that first goal Ito does a fantastic job with that heel. Munoz came over again. That boy is crazy, he keeps going. As a striker I just had to be there,” he explained.
“At the corner of the second goal I faced a very big , strong boy (Seck, ed.). So I had to think quickly to get rid of him. I did not do that on strength, but by quickly changing direction.”
He celebrated his second goal with a somersault, revealing he usually did so but stepped down on such celebration because it caused him a back problem.
