Inform Ghana winger, Joseph Paintsil continued with his blistering form after contributing to three goals in KRC Genk's emphatic victory over Anderlecht in the Belgian topflight.
The Smurfs pummeled the Purple and Whites by a resounding 5-2 at the Luminus Arena in match-day 33 to widen their lead at the summit of the league and will be crowned champions for the fifth time very soon.
The 25 year old scored twice but started off with the real dazzling early in the second half, having notched his first on 49th minute, assisted Morocco international Bilal El Khannouss for their fourth before sealing his brace on the 87th minute.
And all these were after Tanzanian striker Mbwana Samatta and A.O. Mohammed had already handed them a two-goal lead at half time.
Joseph Paintsil is really in the form of his life with massive 24 goal-contribution to his belt; having netted 14 goals and provided 10 assists in the league- making him arguably one of the best forwards in Europe at the moment.
KRC Genk are currently leading the log with 74 points and are being chased closely by high-flying Union St Gilloise who could close the points gap to only two should they grind a win today.
They will travel Sporting Charleroi in the next round of matches.
