Records goal and assist
Okafor scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and four chances created in Saturday's 3-0 win against Wolverhampton.
Analysis: Okafor played a decisive role in Saturday's 3-0 win over Wolverhampton at Elland Road, scoring in the first half after converting Brenden Aaronson's inch-perfect low cross to the far post, then creating a chance earlier in the move that led to James Justin's opener just two minutes prior. The Swiss winger remained a constant threat on the left flank throughout, adding an interception defensively and finishing as his side's most dangerous wide outlet with four key passes. Okafor has now scored three goals in his last two Premier League appearances, taking his season tally to seven and firmly establishing himself as his team's second top scorer.
Scores brace in win
Okafor scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Monday's 2-1 win versus Manchester United.
Analysis: Okafor made the starting lineup after dealing with a back issue, and he scored both goals that led to his team's big win at Old Trafford, firing low shots from inside and outside the box in the fifth and 29th minutes, respectively. The fact that Okafor has recorded four goals and two assists across his last six official appearances makes him a serious threat if he continues to be chosen over Lukas Nmecha in upcoming fixtures.
