Former Celtic striker Oh Hyeon-gyu scored what turned out to be the winner as Genk beat Union Saint-Gilloise 2-1 last night.
The South Korean joined the Parkhead side under Ange Postecoglou, coming in to replace the departing Giorgos Giakoumakis.
Oh made 47 appearances during his Celtic stint, scoring 12 goals along the way.

He left the club permanently in the summer to sign for Genk.
So far in Belgium, the 23-year-old has scored 10 goals in 32 games. Indeed, Oh has been in fine fettle of late, netting twice in his last two appearances.
His most recent goal came against USG last night, as Genk went on to win 2-1. Oh's strike put them 2-0 up with just under 10 minutes to go and sent them on their way to a crucial three points:

The Belgian season is soon set to split and go into three different sections.
Oh's Genk will be in the Playoff Championship group, where they will look to win what would only be the fourth league title in the club's history.
