Not so often do you see pundits say a particular player is above the level of the league he is playing in and for that to happen, the player in question must have shown quality on a consistent level.
It’s normal for strikers to score goals that will make jaw drops because they are mostly tasked with getting the goals. However when a defender does same in two consecutive games then it becomes hot topics owing to the fact that stopping goals is what they are mainly expected to do.
Nigeria international defender Chidozie Awaziem has however made goal scoring look easy with his second goal of the season for Croatian side Hadjuk Split in their 1-0 win over Rijeka. He is on loan to the team from Portuguese side Boavista.
The 25 year old showed quick feet, good movement and precise finishing to hand his team the winner, the second time he is scoring a goal that will make many strikers to be envious of his ability in the box. He scored a similar goal against NK Lokomotiva.
Already there are talks on the fact that the former FC Porto defender is not just the best player in his team, he is also seen as one of the few players who deserve to be playing at a level higher than the Croatian League. It was roundly talked about on Twitter immediately after the game.
