Ghana international, Joseph Paintsil returned to action on Saturday as he helped his KRC Genk side to defeat OH Leuven 1-0 in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League.
The talented winger was named in the KRC Genk matchday squad although he missed out on a place in the first eleven.
In the second half, the forward was introduced into the game in the 59th minute as he replaced Bilal El Khannous.
On his return to the team, Joseph Paintsil played well and helped his team to fight for the maximum three points.
Before his introduction though, a Paul Onuachu equalizer in the 16th minute of the first half had given KRC Genk the lead.
In a post on social media after the game, Joseph Paintsil said he is excited to be back.
“Feels good to be back! Another 3 points in the bag,” Joseph Paintsil shared on Twitter.
