West Brom forward Josh Maja continues to dazzle in the Championship, scoring his 9th goal of the season to secure a 2-1 away victory over Hull City on Sunday.
With Maja’s scoring prowess, the Baggies finally snapped a frustrating streak of six consecutive draws, hinting at a possible revival in their campaign, Footballrover reports.
The Super Eagles striker’s crucial strike was his second goal in three games, coming just after his equaliser against Luton.
This time, Maja’s goal not only gave West Brom a two-goal cushion but also infused a new sense of purpose for a side that desperately needed a win to stay competitive in the league.
After Karlan Grant opened the scoring just 12 minutes into the match, West Brom quickly seized control, pressing Hull with relentless energy.
Maja struck soon after, doubling the lead at the 17-minute mark and positioning his side for their sixth win of the season.
