Sadiq Umar's double sends Partizan Belgrade to Serbian Super Liga summit

Sadiq Umar scored a brace as Partizan Belgrade fought back to thrash Radnicki Nis 4-1 on Saturday.

The visitors survived an early scare at the Cair Stadium to secure their seventh win in their ninth league outing this season.

Seven minutes after Bibras Natkho levelled proceedings for Partizan Belgrade in the 23rd minute, Umar fired them ahead to give them a 2-1 lead which stood until after the restart.

The 22-year-old striker, who is on a season-long loan from Roma, wrapped up the win for Savo Milosevic's side in the 78th minute with his fourth league goal of the season.
