Ghanaian defender Abdul Mumin delivered a stunning, striker-like finish in Rayo Vallecano’s impressive 3-1 victory over Osasuna on Monday night, marking a significant moment in the match that helped the team snap a poor run of results.
Mumin’s thunderous goal came just after halftime, leveling the score in the 49th minute.
The centre-back ventured forward and unleashed a powerful left-footed strike from an awkward angle, which struck the underside of the crossbar before finding the net.
This spectacular goal not only showcased the attacking prowess of Abdul Mumin but also shifted the momentum of the game in favour of Rayo Vallecano.
Following Mumin’s equaliser, Rayo added two more goals through Andrei Ratiu and Unai Lopez, sealing their first win of the season at the Estadio de Vallecas.

Despite facing criticism for a recent mistake during Ghana’s 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Angola, Mumin’s confidence remains unshaken.
His aggressive and assured performances are proving invaluable for Rayo Vallecano, a club that often battles to maintain its position in La Liga.
As Rayo Vallecano continues its campaign, Muminās ability to contribute both defensively and offensively will be crucial as they aim to build on this victory and improve their standing in the league.
