The Super Eagles striker scored the lone goal for Almeria as they defeated Malaga away from home on Saturday at the Spanish second division league.
Sadiq broke the deadlock in the 53rd minutes as he heads home the cross from Francisco Porlitto to earn his side a huge boost in their quest for Elite ticket.
Umar, who has now netted 10 goals in 22 games continued his fine form in their last game which saw him won his side two penalties and scored a goal in their 2-0 home win against Ibiza.
With this result, Almeria remains second in the Spanish second tier table having amassed 52 points from 27 games.
Sadiq was part of Nigeria’s squad to the 2021 Africa Cup in Cameroon. The striker had earlier opened his goal account for the team in their 2-0 victory over Guinea-Bissau even as the team would eventually crashed out at the round of 16.
