Sadiq Umar, fresh from the Super Eagles AFCON disappointment, scored his ninth goal in Segunda Division this season for UD Almeria to beat Ibiza 2-0 tonight.
Sadiq, who took some flak for the Eagles early exit from the AFCON, fired his team’s second goal deep into stoppage time.

He rounded up his marker inside out during a quick counter before he shot past the Ibiza goalkeeper from the top of the box.
Almeria remain second in the Spanish second division with 49 points from 26 matches, same as table toppers Elbar who have a game in hand.
Last season, Sadiq netted 20 goals, but Almeria still failed to win promotion to La Liga.
