It is rare when a deep-lying midfielder is the featured player on one of our goal and assist compilations from African players but young Cameroonian Raoul Sanda is a player to watch. The diminutive 19-year-old scored two goals and provided an assist for his side Qatar Sports Club in a 4-2 victory at Al-Ahli Doha on Saturday. It has been an inconsistent season for Qatar SC but the role of the former AS Fortuna player continues to increase in his second season at the club.

Yacine Brahimi and Riyad Mahrez were among the several Algerians who enjoyed productive weekends in the Saudi Pro League and Qatar Stars League.
