Odada was subbed on but he could not help Aalborg hold on to their 2-0 win against Sonderjyske with both sides settling for a 2-2 draw.
Harambee Stars midfielder Richard Odada featured as a substitute as Aalborg (AaB) blew a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 with Sonderjyske in a Danish second division clash that took place on Saturday evening.
Odada, who has scored four goals and registered three assists from midfield for the promotion hungry side, will be hoping he made enough of an impression to get back into the starting line-up for their next clash against Fredericia.
Within the first minute, Younes Bakiz tested Sonderjyske goalkeeper Nicolai Flo, and by the fourth minute, AaB took the lead 1-0. In a well-executed attack, Jubril Adedeji found Melker Widell, who assisted Mathias Jorgensen for a goal.
