Samu Omorodion, who has been described as ‘The New Osimhen’, dazzled in a six-goal thriller at the Estadio Dedragao in Portugal with a brace for FC Porto against Manchester United.
Visiting Manchester United raced to a two goals lead early in the second half through goals from Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Højlund, before winger Pedro drew one back.
In the 34th minute, Omorodion got his first UEFA Europa League goal for Porto, bringing them level on the night.
Five minutes into the second half, the young striker, whose transfer to Chelsea in the summer collapsed at the last minute, netted once again to drive the Portuguese giants into the lead.
It was just not to be as English defender Harry Maguire headed United level in the first minute of added time, to ensure the spoils were shared.
