The Digest:
Trabzonspor striker Paul Onuachu scored his first-ever goal against Galatasaray in a 2-1 Turkish Super Lig win over Victor Osimhen's team. The 31-year-old rose highest to head home a cross in the first half at Papara Park. According to Turkish outlet Fanatik, the goal means Onuachu has now scored against all three of Turkey's traditional big clubs, Fenerbahce, Besiktas, and Galatasaray. The strike takes his league tally to 22 goals this season, extending his lead at the top of the scoring charts.
Key Points:
- Onuachu has completed a hat-trick of goals against Turkey's three biggest clubs.
- His 22 league goals put him well clear of second-place Eldor Shomurodov (16 goals).
- The Nigerian striker is in the form of his life in the Turkish Super Lig.
- Scoring against Osimhen's Galatasaray adds extra Nigerian derby flavour.
- Onuachu is now the Super Eagles' most in-form striker domestically.
Watch for Onuachu's continued goal-scoring form as Trabzonspor face Alanyaspor next weekend.
