Ghana star Mohammed Kudus, has earned nomination for the UEFA Europa League Player of the Week award following his impressive brace for West Ham United against Freiburg on Thursday night.
The March 14, 2024, fixture at the London Stadium saw the Hammers hit five unanswered goals past the German visitors.
Two first-half goals by Paqueta and Bowen in the 9th and 32nd minutes, respectively, set West Ham on the way to eliminating the Germans, who had a one-goal lead from the first leg.
West Ham continued from where they left off in the second half with Cresswell’s goal in the 51st minute. Kudus then stepped up with two blistering goals, first in the 77th and then in the 85th minute.
The London side will now await their opponents in the quarter-finals.
