BALOTELLI of Nigerian football, Gbolahan Salami  on Sunday scored twice at the Warri City Stadium to give Warri Wolves a 2-0 win over Giwa FC of Jos in a week five Globacom Premier League game.

Salami, a member of the Super Eagles who won the bronze at the third African Nations Championship (CHAN 2014) in South Africa, had his movement to Wolves delayed for reasons not yet ascertained before his debut today which he marked with a brace.
The former Enyimba striker scored in the 43rd minute to put the Seasiders ahead while he was also on song barely two minutes into the second half to hand the visitors their first away defeat of the season.
