With the scores level at 1-1, Maja showcased his clinical finishing abilities, guiding a well-placed shot into the bottom corner following a neat cutback from Tom Fellows, who had been played in by Darnell Furlong.
This crucial strike marks Maja's fourth goal in just three matches for the Baggies, highlighting his immediate impact since joining the club.
The forward had previously announced his arrival in spectacular fashion with a hat-trick in the season opener away at QPR, a performance that earned him the Naija Stars Abroad Player of the Week accolade.
Despite being kept quiet in West Brom's first home fixture against Leeds United, Maja has bounced back emphatically, demonstrating his ability to perform consistently at this level.

His goal-scoring ability has been a key factor in West Bromwich Albion's positive start to the season, helping them return to winning ways after the setback against Leeds.
Maja's form is not only benefiting his club but also catching the eye of Super Eagles fans and selectors. With his current goal-scoring rate, the striker is making a strong case for regular inclusion in the national team setup.
As West Brom look to mount a serious promotion challenge this season, Maja's contributions will be crucial. If he maintains this level of performance, he could be in line for another Naija Stars Abroad Player of the Week award, further cementing his status as one of the standout Nigerian players in Europe so far.
The Baggies will be hoping Maja can continue his rich vein of form as they navigate the competitive landscape of the Championship, with their sights firmly set on a return to the Premier League.
