Ghanaian youth international striker Eugene Ansah climbed off the bench to score a double for ten-man Lokeren as they hammered Mouscron-Péruwelz 5-1 in the Belgian Pro League Play-offs on Saturday. 

The 21-year-old strolled onto the pitch with just 12 minutes of normal time left for play but he showed how limitless his striking talent is by scoring five minutes later and adding the second four minutes before the end of the game.

Ansah, a former Liberty Professionals youth team forward has enjoyed limited playing time with Lokeren and mostly restricted to the second team but on Saturday when he was given his chance he crush in two goals –  his first goals of the season.

The first goal which arrived in the 83rd minute saw Ansah resist a double challenge from two Mouscron defenders to power home a fierce low drive in Asamoah Gyan-style and wheeling off in grand celebration while his coach punches the air.

In the second strike he picked a pass from inside of the box and darted the ball to the bottom root corner.
