Ex-PSG Teen Star Ogbeche Back On The Goal Trail For Willem II
Published: February 01, 2018
Willem II Nigerian goal machine, Bartholomew Ogbeche is back in the groove for the Tricolores in their 2-2 quarterfinal Holland Cup clash draw with Roda Kerkrade on Thursday evening.
The 33-year old pulled Willem level after 39 minutes of the game after Simon Gustafson had earlier shot their visitors into the lead from the spot.
Donis Avdijaj profited from an Adil Auassar's assist to power Roda back in front three minutes after the restart but Kostantinos Tsimikas made sure the the Tilburg-based side would take the game to extra time as the battle for the last four heated up.
After the ensuing 30 minutes which failed to produce any goals, William Ndenge's miss in the shootout for Roda proved enough as Ogbeche and his side advanced to the next round.
For the former PSG whizkid, the goal was his ninth in all competitions for the club this season, a tally which continued one of the most productive campaigns for the journey man striker.
Willem II would meet either of Feyenoord, AZ Alkmaar or FC Twente in the semifinals of the competition.
