Nigerian forward Henry Onyekuru has said he is disappointed his Belgian club Eupen failed to beat Westerlo at the weekend even when they had chances to do so.

The 19-year-old player, who scored what could have been the winner for the home team Eupen in the 3-3 draw, said a lot has to be learnt from the game.

“I am happy to score a goal, but very sad we couldn’t win a game which we had in our hands,” he said.

“The fact that they came back to equalise after every of our goal made me feel bad, but I believe it’s a game we should learn from.”

He has now scored seven goals in 16 games for Eupen.
