You might want to sit down for this one: on-loan Liverpool striker Iago Aspas scored for Sevilla on Thursday night.

Aspas had one goal in his past 17 appearances, but is now firmly a one-in-two man now has ONE goal in his past TWO appearances following his Europa League strike against HNK Rijeka.

Rijeka, who come from the third-largest city in Croatia, beat Prestatyn Town 8-0 on aggregate in last season's competition – so the Spaniard is notching against proven quality.

The Croatia Prva Liga side have plenty in common with the other side Aspas has scored against in 2014, Oldham Athletic.

As Wikipedia details, Rijeka is hard to get to by air – as, indeed, is Oldham.

It was a lovely finish from Aspas, with quick feet moving him away from the defender, before rifling home into the far corner.

It's almost as if the striker, with 35 goals in his final two seasons at Celta Vigo, is actually competent in front of goal and isn't simply defined by one poor corner against Chelsea.

Perish the thought.

He was back on the bench at home to Deportivo on Sunday, however – but did manage 11 minutes as a substitute.

No reason for celebration for Tiago Ilori, however. The Portuguese defender was taken off after 27 minutes of Bordeaux's 1-0 defeat to Reims, with the French club confirming he had suffered a hamstring injury.

Divock Origi, meanwhile, continued his run of seemingly scoring in every game he has ever played, with a penalty for Lille against Wolfsburg in the Europa League in their 1-1 draw on Thursday.

He then, inexplicably, was left out of the starting line up for the trip to Lyon on Sunday and was brought on at half time, with Lille already 2-0 down.

They went on to lose 3-0, and scientists released this graph afterwards of what went wrong for the French club.

Oussama Assaidi was sent on for Stoke after 18 minutes against Sunderland, replacing Victor Moses. Stoke would go on to lose 3-1 and the Moroccan was handed a yellow card, so not a fantastic afternoon all round.

Jordon Ibe had a mixed afternoon for Derby on Saturday as well, failing to find the breakthrough for the Rams as they drew 0-0 at Pride Park with Millwall.

He began on the left for the home side, before switching to the right. With half-an-hour played, he was booked for simulation after tumbling under goalkeeper David Forde's challenge.

Rams boss Steve McClaren agreed with the decision.

“Sometimes you can get into a situation where you do go down because momentum takes you but I always say to players if you do dive on purpose, you deserve to get booked,” he said.

“Will I mention it to Jordon? No, I think it is something he will learn from the reaction that followed and no doubt you boys (the press) will also mention it in your little columns.”

He was then taken off after 65 minutes, with reports also suggesting he has withdrawn from the England Under-20 squad through injury.

This fan seems to have taken him to his heart, however. Let's hope he wasn't too Frozen in awe of the winger.

Remaining in the Championship, Joao Carlos Teixeira played 90 minutes for Sami Hyypia's Brighton and Hove Albion as they drew 1-1 away to Watford. No word on whether the Portuguese's performance was enough for Watford boss Billy McKinlay to leave after just nine days in charge, however. Probably not.

Brad Smith was an unused substitute for Swindon as they won 2-1 at Leyton Orient, while Luis Alberto failed to get on the pitch for Malaga's 2-1 win at home to Granada.

Andre Wisdom didn't play for West Brom as they met the Reds on Saturday, while Sebastian Coates remains injured at Sunderland.
