Manchester United striker Bryan Mbeumo and Bournemouth midfielder Amine Adli were among eight African scorers in the Premier League at the weekend.
Cameroon international Mbeumo claimed the first United goal in a dramatic 3-2 victory at leaders Arsenal.
Mbeumo struck for the second time in two games since his return from the Africa Cup of Nations as United stunned Arsenal. He kept his cool to pounce on an error from Martin Zubimendi, round David Raya and slot in his ninth goal since joining the Red Devils.
AMINE ADLI (Bournemouth)
Adli, who was left out of Morocco’s AFCON squad, scored with virtually the last kick of the game to give Bournemouth a dramatic win over Liverpool. The former Bayer Leverkusen winger persisted to fire home from a narrow angle at the second attempt for just his second Bournemouth goal.
ANTOINE SEMENYO (Man City)
Semenyo has now scored in three different competitions for City just a few weeks on from sealing his move to the Etihad from Bournemouth. The Ghanaian stroked in his first Premier League goal in sky blue during a 2-0 win over Wolves after netting in the FA Cup and League Cup on his first two City appearances. City’s other goal came from Egyptian Omar Marmoush.
