Nigeria-born goal poacher, Noah Abolaji Salaudeen, continued his sensational form on Wednesday night, 9th September, 2026, netting a brace in a commanding 6–1 victory over Euforija in the Lithuania Cup.
The win further underlined Salaudeen’s dominance in Lithuanian football this year as he took his tally to remarkable heights across all competitions.
Salaudeen was at his clinical best, finding the net twice to help his side cruise into the next round of the Lithuania Cup. His movement, finishing and link-up play were key in dismantling Euforija, with the forward involved in much of his team’s attacking threat.
The brace was his 8th goal in just 3 cup appearances this season.
Salaudeen’s performance on Wednesday pushed his 2026 numbers to elite levels:
🇱🇹 League — 12 Games

That means the Nigerian striker is averaging more than 3 goal contributions per game — 52 in 15 matches.
Salaudeen’s extraordinary scoring rate continues to attract attention both locally and abroad. Since arriving in Lithuania, the forward has established himself as one of the most prolific strikers in the league, combining pace, positioning and composure in front of goal.
Fans and analysts have praised his consistency, with many tipping him for a bigger move should he maintain this form till the end of the season.
