Rafiu Durosinmi scores for Genk in draw against KAA Gent
Rafiu Durosinmi scored his fifth league goal in six appearances to secure a 1-1 draw for Genk against KAA Gent in the Belgian Pro League. After Momodou Sonko gave Gent an early lead in the 10th minute, the Nigerian international equalized shortly after the second half began.
Genk coach Jess Thorup has highlighted the 23-year-old striker's physical presence and explosive start to the season following his move from Pisa. While praising Durosinmi's physique, Thorup emphasized the importance of tactical intelligence, noting that the forward must learn when to engage in physical duels and when to find space to avoid unnecessary contests against experienced defenders.
