Ghanaian footballer Caleb Ekuban was instrumental in Genoa’s thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over Sassuolo in the Italian Serie A.
Sassuolo took the lead with a goal from Andrea Pinamonti in the 28th minute, but Genoa fought back with determination.
Albert Guðmundsson equalized for Genoa with a penalty, paving the way for Ekuban’s late heroics. The striker scored the decisive goal, securing Genoa’s first away win in nine matches.
This win marked Sassuolo’s first loss against Genoa since January 2020 and extended their winless streak at home to six games.
Genoa now sits in the 13th position on the Serie A table with 29 points after 17 games.
Ekuban’s late goal, his first in the ongoing league after 12 games, has injected momentum into Genoa’s season, and he is eager to contribute more goals as the campaign unfolds.
