Arsenal Loanee Akpom Continues Hot Streak With Sensational Goal Against Antwerp
Nigerian striker Chuba Akpom's hot streak of form continued on Saturday evening as the 22-year old hit his sixth goal in 15 appearances for his loan club, Sint-Truiden in a Belgian UEFA Europa League play-off game against Royal Antwerp.

The Arsenal loanee who has been displaying his scoring skills in the division was yet at it at the Bosuil Stadion, doubling his side's advantage with a delightful volley in the 33rd minute of the clash after his teammate, Jonathan Legear had opened the scoring earlier.

It would be recalled that the Hale End Academy product scored his second goal in the colours of Sint Truiden against same opponents back in April and he could have gotten a double here had goaltender, Sinan Bolat not denied him.

His latest act continues to bolster his stock as he prepares to bid The Canaries farewell in return to the Emirates Stadium where he would hope to work his way back into first team contention under a new club manager.

Akpom has made 12 first team appearances for the Gunners since his debut.
