Liverpool loanee Awoniyi ends wait for first Mainz goal against Cologne

Taiwo Awoniyi came from the bench to score his first Mainz goal in Sunday’s German top-flight clash against Cologn

With the hosts appearing destined for defeat having gone two goals down through Mark Uth and Florian Kainz, Awoniyi launched his team’s comeback in the 2-2 draw at the Mungersdorfer Stadium.

It was the forward’s first strike for the German top-flight outfit following his loan move from Premier League outfit.

After failing to break into Jurgen Klopp’s squad after completing a loan move at Royal Excel Mouscron previously, he has now broken his duck for Mainz in his seventh league outing.
