Ghana international Joseph Paintsil registered his third goal in his last four appearances for KRC Genk in their UEFA Conference League win on Thursday night.

The winger grabbed a goal and provided an assist inside 20 minutes of the game against Cukaricki as the Belgian side picked up their first win in the competition.

Paintsil put Bryan Heynen through on goal in the 10th minute of the game for the away side's opening goal before scoring from the spot 10 minutes later.

The goal was the winger's second goal in the last two games he has played for Genk across all competitions as he looks to get back to his best.

Paintsil was making his first appearance in the competition after missing the game against Fiorentina due to suspension.

Genk went on to win the game 2-0 with the home side failing to score.
