Algerian striker Mohamed Amoura delivered a brilliant performance on Saturday, scoring twice to lead VfL Wolfsburg to a commanding 4-0 away win over RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga. The match, held at the Red Bull Arena, saw Amoura find the back of the net early, opening the scoring in the 4th minute with a precise cross into the box. His second goal came just 12 minutes later, as he executed a perfect feint before calmly slotting the ball between the goalkeeper’s legs.
Amoura’s remarkable brace made him the first Wolfsburg player in over a decade to score twice within the first 15 minutes of a Bundesliga match.
The last player to achieve this feat was Brazilian Diego Cunha in 2012.
Amoura’s early goals helped set the tone for the match, and his contribution was key in Wolfsburg securing a dominant victory.
The 23-year-old’s performance not only earned him praise but also a place in the Bundesliga’s Team of the Week.
Amoura’s overall rating of 9.27 on the “WhoScored” platform underlined his crucial role in the win.
Currently on loan from Belgian side Union Saint-Gilloise, Amoura’s contract includes an option for Wolfsburg to make the move permanent, and given his form, this decision appears increasingly likely.
With four goals and six assists so far this season, Amoura has firmly established himself as one of the Bundesliga’s most influential players.
His 10 offensive contributions place him fourth among the league’s most decisive players, ahead of the likes of Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane and Eintracht Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush.
At just 23, Amoura has quickly become one of the standout revelations of the Bundesliga.
His performances have not gone unnoticed, with top European clubs reportedly keeping tabs on his progress.
As Wolfsburg continues its strong run, Amoura’s growing influence could help elevate the team to the upper echelons of the Bundesliga table.
Looking ahead, Amoura is preparing for Wolfsburg’s upcoming clash with Hoffenheim in the round of 16 of the German Cup.
Another opportunity for the young striker to showcase his talents on the big stage.
