Super Eagles striker Rafiu Durosinmi has reacted after extending his impressive scoring run for KRC Genk with the equalising goal in their 1-1 draw against KAA Gent, Footynaija.com reports.
Genk fell behind in the 10th minute when Momodou Sonko found the net for the visitors, but Durosinmi restored parity shortly after the restart.
The 23-year-old Nigerian striker struck in the 47th minute to bring his tally to five goals in his first six Belgian Pro League appearances since joining Genk from Italian side Pisa in the summer.

Durosinmi was also voted Man of the Match for the second time, further underlining his growing influence since arriving in Belgium.
Speaking after the game, the Super Eagles striker admitted that he is enjoying his blistering start to life in Belgium although he remains focused on helping Genk build on their positive performances.
“I am happy to have been voted Man of the Match again. It also feels good to be the top scorer at the moment,” Durosinmi told Genk’s official channels.
“In football, anything is possible, but you have to believe in it. My family and my wife are here to cheer me on, and that feels good.”
The Nigerian also acknowledged the difficulty of the contest against a Gent side that has proven difficult to break down, insisting that Genk could take plenty of positives from the result.
“It certainly wasn’t an easy match. Considering the fact that they conceded hardly any goals, this is quite a good performance,” he added.
Following the draw against Gent, Genk currently sits 9th in the Belgian Pro League standings, accumulating 9 points from their first six matches.
