Ghanaian defender Issahaku Yakubu scored to help 10-man National Bank of Egypt to record a hard-fought 3-2 win over Eastern Company in the Premier League on Saturday.
Issahaku, 28, put his name on the score-sheet in the 5th minute – a goal which canceled out a 3rd-minute opener by Saber Aschraf.
Though National Bank was reduced to 10 men around the 44th minute, they managed to win the game at the Petrosport Stadium.
Saturday’s goal is Issahaku’s second league goal in 32 games for his side this season.
