ENGLAND

Henri Camara
Camara levelled for Wigan, before his side went on to beat West Brom
Senegal striker Henri Camara scored his second goal in as many games as he helped his Wigan side come from behind to beat West Bromwich Albion 2-1.

South African midfielder Stephen Pienaar scored the only goal of the game as his side Everton beat Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.

Everton's win was overshadowed, however, by some bad news as Nigerian striker Yakubu limped off early in the game after rupturing an Achilles tendon.

The injury will keep him out of action for the rest of the season.

SPAIN

Samuel Eto'o scored his 14th goal of the season as league leaders Barcelona eased to a 3-0 win over Sevilla. The Cameroon striker is still the league's top scorer and Barcelona are now five points clear of Villareal at the top of the table.

Nigeria striker Ikechukwu Uche scored in the 81st minute to seal a 3-1 victory for Getafe over their illustrious local rivals Real Madrid - who are now fourth - six points behind Barcelona.

Morocco's Nabil Baha continued his good form this season as he scored the second goal in Malaga's 4-2 victory over Osasuna. It was Baha's fifth goal of the season.

Also with five goals so far this season is Cameroon striker Achille Emana who equalised for Real Betis to make it 2-2 - but it was not enough as his side lost 3-2 at Valencia.

Rwandan striker Mohamed Tchite gave Racing Santander the lead on seven minutes but they eventually lost 4-1 to Atletico Madrid. Tchite now has six goals in La Liga.

FRANCE

Just two goals by Africans in France and both were scored for Le Mans as they beat Caen 2-0.

Mali striker Modibo Maiga and the Ivory Coast's Gervinho were the scorers.

ITALY

Sulley Muntari scored for the second league game in a row, netting the second for Inter Milan in their 2-1 win over Napoli.

The win takes Inter six points clear of Juventus at the top of the Serie A.

BELGIUM

Burundian Ndabashinze Dugary scored his second goal of the season for Genk, who beat Cercles Bruges 3-2.

Senegalese striker Mbaye Leye scored twice for Zulte Waregem who beat Charleroi 4-2.

Fellow Senegalese Elimane Coulibaly rescued his side twice as they came from behind on three occasions to draw 3-3 at Tubize.

Olufade Adekanmi also scored twice in Gent�s 4-0 triumph over bottom side Roulers. The Togolese player put Gent ahead from the penalty spot in the 25th minute and scored his side�s third with 20 minutes to go for his eighth goal of the season.

Moroccan Mounir Diane pulled a goal back for Mons in the 70th minute as his side lost 2-1 at Westerlo.
