Nigerian forward Ihejirika Onyebuchi is quickly making his mark in Slovakia after scoring again for FC ŠTK 1914 Šamorín in their impressive 2-1 away victory over Slovan Bratislava B in the Slovak 2. Liga.
The Nigerian attacker produced another decisive moment in front of goal, breaking the deadlock in the 45th minute with a composed finish to give Šamorín the perfect advantage just before half-time.

It was Onyebuchi’s second goal in just three appearances this season, underlining his impressive start to the 2026/27 campaign.
His latest contribution also helped Šamorín maintain their strong position near the top of the table, with the club now sitting second with nine points.
The forward’s form will be particularly encouraging for the club as they look to build momentum early in the campaign. His ability to find important goals is already proving valuable as Šamorín compete for a strong finish this season.
Onyebuchi’s journey is another example of a Nigerian talent making an impact away from home and gradually establishing himself in European football.
Rather than simply focusing on his personal goal tally, the forward insists the team’s success remains his priority.
“We knew this would be a difficult game, but we stayed focused and fought for every ball until the end. Scoring is always special, but helping the team take all three points means even more to me. We have started well, and now we have to keep pushing and see how far we can go,” Onyebuchi said.
With two goals from his opening three matches, the Nigerian forward has made an early statement in the Slovak 2. Liga.
Šamorín’s impressive start has also placed them firmly among the teams to watch, and Onyebuchi will be hoping his goals can continue to propel the club up the standings.
For the Nigerian attacker, however, the focus remains simple: keep working, keep improving and keep delivering when it matters most. 🇳🇬⚽🔥
