Former Nigeria junior international, Michael Olaitan, has now firmly cemented his place in the first team of Greek Super League club, Olympiacos.
The 20-year-old now appears to score when he wants and was again on song as the Super League entered match day 21 at the weekend.
He was man-of-the match in Olympiacos’ 2-0 win over Skoda Xanthi at the SKODA Xanthi Arena on Sunday.
Spotting a rather bizarre-looking Mohican, Olaitan soon ensured he was hogging the headlines for the right reasons when he scored the opening goal of the contest in the 24th minute.
The Xanthi defence failed to clear an Olympiacos corner and the unmarked Olaitan was on hand to sweep home from four yards with his left foot.
Moments earlier, the midfielder felt he was hard done by when he was not awarded a penalty when the Skoda Xanthi captain, Spyros Vallas appeared to bundle him to the ground inside the penalty area.
He however had himself to blame for not hitting the target a few minutes later when he skewed his shot wide with just the Xanthi goalkeeper, Chema Jiménez to beat.
He ensured he finished the game on a high by providing an intelligent assist for Olympiacos’ second goal of the night on 88 minutes.
Picking up a pass just inside the Xanthi half, he toyed with defender, Dimitrios Goutas; involuntarily dragging him to the byline before supplying a smart cut back that the grateful Alejandro Dominguez did well to prod home from two yards.
Olaitan has now scored four league goals this season following previous successes he recorded in games against Ergotelis, Asteras Tripolis and Levadiakos.
He has made 11 league appearances for Olympiacos this season.
