Welthon scored a second half brace as Kitchee secured a 2-1 comeback victory over BC Rangers in the Premier League at Tsing Yi Sports Ground on Sunday (February 9).
Kitchee found themselves a goal behind when Lau Chi Lok opened the scoring through a counterattack in the 28th minute in which Kitchee struggled to break the deadlock over multiple attempts.
Edgar Cardoso’s men improved after the break and they only took 9 minutes to equalize when Fernando, who played his 200th game for Kitchee, assisted Welthon to score a header from a close range. The Brazilian striker tapped in the 70th minute to record his double of the game to seal the comeback win.
