UD Las Palmas defeated Malaga 1-0 in a La Liga tie on Monday night thanks to Allen Halilovic’s 90th minute strike. Considering both teams’ positions at the foot of the table, the points meant so much.
Meanwhile, three Nigerians made their debuts for both teams after their winter moves. Oghenekaro Etebo filed out for Las Palmas, while Brown Ideye and Isaac Success featured for Malaga. Emmanuel Emenike wasn’t listed for UDLP.
Etebo was on from start to finish and was easily the liveliest player on the pitch featuring from the central midfield. When the LP No 6 was not breaking up play, he was either turning away in the middle of the park and driving his team forward or hitting a long-range canon. He popped up from one box to the other at will.
