Genoa secured a hard-fought 2–1 victory over Sassuolo on Sunday, thanks to a decisive strike from Ghanaian forward Caleb Ekuban, who continues to grow in influence for the Italian side this season.
The match, played under tense conditions, saw Genoa CFC take an early lead before US Sassuolo Calcio responded to level the score. With both sides pushing for a winner, it was Ekuban who rose to the occasion, finding the net with a clinical finish that ultimately separated the two teams.
The goal marks Ekuban’s fourth of the current Serie A campaign, alongside one assist, underlining his growing importance in Genoa’s attacking setup. His performance not only secured three crucial points but also reinforced his reputation as a reliable option in key moments.
Genoa’s victory provides a timely boost as they look to climb the league standings, while Sassuolo are left to reflect on missed opportunities in a closely contested encounter. For Ekuban, however, the spotlight belongs firmly on a match-winning contribution that continues to define his season.
