Mbokani nets first Champions League goal for Dynamo Kyiv

DR. Congo international Dieumerci Mbokani scored his first Uefa Champions League goal for Dynamo Kyiv in their 3-1 defeat of Young Boys on Wednesday at the NSC Olimpiyskiy.

Mbokani who was on from start to finish got his side’s second goal with a beauty.

Andriy Yarmolenko made a run down the left flank, before crossing for the lanky striker who finished with a cheeky back heel.

Yarmolenko had opened the scoring in the 15th minute after profiting from a shaky defending to fire past David von Ballmoos.

Denis Garmash added a third in the 90th minute, seconds after Christian Fassnacht had pulled one back for the Swiss based outfit.

Mbokani, 31, was poised to sign for Olympiakos from Premier League side Hull City where he spent the season on loan, but the move fell through, leading to his return to Ukraine with mother club Dynamo Kyiv.
