Nigeria winger, Omatsone Aluko made yet another statement of intent to Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi with yet another impressive display for English Championship side, Hull City on Saturday.
Aluko capped his display with a well-taken goal as Hull overcame Bristol City 2-1 at Ashton Gate.
Aluko’s goal which arrived in the 8th minute exemplified class and quality.
The 23-year old exchanged passes with Jay Simpson before producing a super finish to give his side the lead.
Aluko has been in great form this season. He has scored for Hull in Championship games against Bolton (September 1), Millwall (September 15) and Blackpool (October 2).
However the Hull City manager, Steve Bruce was critical of Aluko and his teammates despite the win.
"The better team won, no doubt about that, but if I have to be critical the chances we missed have been typical of us.
"In a few games this year we should have been out of sight, but overall I have to be very pleased indeed with the way we performed.
"We are playing the way I want to at the moment. We like to pass the ball around and have some very good footballers.
"Some of our football was excellent and to come away from home and create the chances we did was very satisfying," he said.
