Daniel Afriyie Barnieh continued his impressive run of form in the Swiss Challenge League on Tuesday night, finding the back of the net for FC Aarau in their comprehensive 3-0 victory over FC Lausanne-Sport Ouchy.
The Ghanaian forward scored his 11th goal of the season, capping off a dominant performance from Aarau with the third strike in the 87th minute to seal all three points in style.
Barnieh has been a standout performer for the Swiss side this season, consistently stepping up in key moments as Aarau intensify their push for promotion to the Swiss top flight. The result lifts them to second place on the league table, keeping their promotion hopes firmly alive.
The 24-year-old, a former Accra Hearts of Oak star, has now registered 16 goal contributions in 30 appearances this campaign, reflecting his growing influence and adaptation since his move to European football.
His latest goal further underlines his importance to Aarau’s attacking unit, with his intelligent movement, sharp finishing, and composure in front of goal proving decisive in a tightly contested promotion race.
As the season approaches its climax, Barnieh’s form is expected to remain crucial to Aarau’s ambitions of securing a return to Switzerland’s elite division.
