22 year old Nigerian forward Dickson Abiama was the hero for German side Greuther Furth scoring the winner in their 3-2 win over Fortuna Düsseldorf which sealed them a spot in the Bundesliga for next season.

Abiama was introduced with nine minutes left to play in the crunch tie with scores tied at 2-2 with Greuther Furth twice coming from behind. The Nigerian put them ahead for the first time two minutes after his introduction.
