Since the &#8220;merciless Dike&#8221; joined the club a couple of weeks ago on loan, the club is yet to lose any match and he has scored 3 goals already in 4 games.<\/p>\n<p>The last goal he scored was on Saturday last week when his club was playing with Birmingham City FC. The match ended in 1-0 against Birmingham City and it was Daryl Dike that scored the goal.<\/p>\n<p>A top football observer who monitored the match told Umuaka Times that from all indications, Barnsley may most likely retain Dike because of his goal scoring abilities.<\/p>\n<p>According to BBC Sports, &#8220;Daryl Dike smashed home the only goal of the game at Oakwell as Barnsley beat Birmingham City to claim a seventh straight Championship win. The on-loan American striker enlivened a poor game with the only memorable moment after 49 minutes when he powered in a 20-yard strike.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3628\" src=\"http:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/6.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"628\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/6.png 628w, https:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/6-300x171.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>while celebrating the victory that Dike gave his club last week, Barnsley manager Valerien Ismael had this to say: &#8220;In my 28 or 29 years in football, I have never seen a strike like that before. It was something unbelievable. &#8220;We&#8217;ve kept a clean sheet and we are in a brilliant position at the moment. The transfer window was important for us and now we are getting the reward. I am delighted that we made some great choices. This is what you can achieve when you believe. Everyone has the same vision, and everyone is hungry. We will have a clear picture of the table just before the international break&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>763 ViewsDaryl Dike, the 20 year old high profile Akalite and
