Ujah, a 62nd minute substitute for Australian striker Dario Vidošic, quickly made his mark with a well-taken goal, seven minutes from full time at Shenyang Olympic Sports Center Stadium.

It was a stunning goal which will be talked about by Lioning Whowin fans for many years to come.

The Nigerian striker received a headed pass from Zambian teammate James Chamanga and proceeded to race all of 40 yards, using impressive body strength to leave Shijiazhuang defender Jiang Jihong sprawling on his backside.

He then proceeded to leave two other defenders hoodwinked before firing an unstoppable left-footed drive past the shell-shocked Guan Zhen in goal for the visitors.

Ujah’s brilliant solo goal was the winner in the game which saw Lioning Whowin climb to ninth on the CSL standings with 20 points from 16 matches.
