Former captain of the Nigeria U17, 20 and 23 team Kelechi Nwakali made a huge impression for newly promoted Laliga side Huesca in their 2-1 comeback win over Alaves in a pre season game.

Nwakali dropped to the bench after starting in the previous pre season game and was introduced after the hour mark with his game tied at 1-1.

His introduction sparked what ended as a comeback win for his team as three minutes after he was introduced his team level score; what ended as the winner courtesy of Penaloza.

On his part , Nwakali almost ended the game with an assist to his name when he teed up fellow Nigerian Kelvin Omoruyi but the 19 year old who only recently signed a new deal at the club failed to make use of the chance.

In the game Nwakali wore jersey number 3 which is same he wore in their last game and it could possibly be his new shirt number for the season , an upgrade from the number 28 shirt he wore last season at same club.
