Ibrahim Gbadamosi fires Al Zawraa to victory in the Iraq Super League

The forward opened the scoring in the 25th minute, putting his team in a commanding position at the Zawra Stadium.
Munzer Al Alawi sealed the win for Al Zawraa in the 77th minute, extending their unbeaten run to two consecutive wins after a tough 2-1 loss to Duhok.

Rasheed Yusuf impresses despite FC Hegelmann’s defeat
Meanwhile, in Lithuania’s A Lyga, Yusuf delivered a brilliant individual performance, but his efforts weren’t enough to prevent FC Hegelmann from suffering a 3-1 defeat to Kauno Zalgris.
The 20-year-old forward scored a stunning header, his third goal of the season, to level the score after the home team had taken the lead from a penalty.
However, the match turned in Kauno Zalgris’ favour as they capitalised on another penalty and a late goal in stoppage time.
Despite the loss, Rasheed Yusuf showed his potential with a strong performance, and his goal kept FC Hegelmann in the contest.
It was a tough defeat, marking their first loss of the season after five wins and one draw.
Nevertheless, they remain at the top of the table with 15 points from their opening seven fixtures.
Although both players experienced different results in their matches, their performances show they still have much more to offer their respective teams.
