Ghanaian youngster Daniel Nunoo nets first Austrian Bundesliga goal in Rapid Wien win
· GhanaSoccernetGhanaian youngster Daniel Nunoo marked a significant milestone in his budding European career after netting his first goal for Austrian giants SK Rapid Wien in their 2-0 victory over Wolfsberger AC on Saturday evening.
The Austrian Bundesliga encounter, played at the Allianz Stadion in Vienna, saw Rapid dominate proceedings before eventually breaking the deadlock in the second half.
After a goalless first half, Austrian midfielder Matthias Seidl handed the hosts the advantage in the 72nd minute, finishing off a well-worked move with an assist from Petter Dahl.
Nunoo, who had been introduced in the 62nd minute to inject fresh energy into Rapid’s attack, made an instant impact.
The Ghanaian forward showed composure and awareness in stoppage time, calmly converting a precise pass from Seidl to double the lead and put the result beyond doubt.
The goal represents a proud moment for the young attacker, who was promoted to Rapid Wien’s first team in July last year.
Since earning his elevation, Nunoo has steadily worked his way into the senior setup, making three appearances and now opening his scoring account in the Austrian top-flight.
His breakthrough strike is expected to boost his confidence as he continues to adapt to the demands of European football.
Rapid's victory strengthens their position in the league standings, while Nunoo’s emergence adds to the growing list of promising Ghanaian talents making waves abroad.
