Jamaican prodigy Leon Bailey scored his first competitive goal for his new club Bayer Leverkusen on Friday night in the first round of the German Cup.

The 20-year old wonder-kid scored in extra time against the third division team Karlsruher SC.

But Karlsruher, despite being a lower league side, proved to be quite a stubborn outfit.

Bayer needed more than 90 minutes to find their opening goal. Bailey scored the third of Bayer’s three goals – all of which came in extra time goals.

Bailey scored in the 105th minute via a neatly tucked ball to the right of Karlsruher’s outstretched shot-stopper.

The other two goals came in minute 91 courtesy of midfielder Dominik Kohr and the 99th minute via Finnish striker – Joel Pohjanpalo.

Bailey joined Bayer Leverkusen earlier this year for a fee that is believed to be in the region of £13 million.
