Sierra Leone international Daniel Kanu has opened his account with Notts County by scoring his first goal for the club in a 2-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday.

Kanu found the net in the 38th minute from the penalty spot after earning a foul in the box. Darius Lipsiuc later came off the bench in the second half to seal the win in front of the Kop.

The Owls were reduced to 10 men in the 50th minute when Jamal Lowe received a straight red card for a dangerous tackle on Jacob Bedeau.

However, we were already in firm control of the match and could have taken the night with an even greater margin, having created several good chances both before and after Lowe’s dismissal.
