Seven shots off target in loss
Wissa generated seven shots (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Aston Villa. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 55th minute.
Analysis: Wissa had seven attempts but was unable to find the target as Newcastle lost 1-0 to Aston Villa, the striker left his teammates particularly frustrated in the second half as he selfishly decided to shoot from distance instead of trying to find a teammate in a better position. This was the first time this season he has taken more than four shots in a game and the attacker has scored one so far this year.
Leads DR Congo to victory
Wissa scored and provided an assist in DR Congo's 2-1 AFCON qualifying win over Zimbabwe on Monday, playing 84 minutes, according to the club.
Analysis: Wissa delivered another productive international performance, opening the scoring before setting up Samuel Moutoussamy for DR Congo's second goal. The forward has now scored in consecutive qualifiers after also finding the net in the 2-0 win over Equatorial Guinea. His strong international form follows a prominent start to the season with Newcastle United, where he has started all five Premier League matches and recorded one goal and one assist while operating across multiple attacking roles.
