Super Eagles striker Paul Onuachu scored a brace for Trabzonspor to help them to a 3-1 victory over Konyaspor at Papara Park, Soccernet.ng reports.
Onuachu has been in fine form this season, and he maintained his place in Trabzonspor’s starting eleven when they welcomed Konyaspor in their 14th Super Lig game of the campaign.
The Black Sea Storm were the favourites heading into the fixture, but they conceded after 17 minutes, after Okay Yokuslu inadvertently put the ball in his own net.
Trabzonspor bounced back pretty well, controlling the possession, but they just failed to create clear-cut chances. However, they were bailed out by Ernest Muci, who won a penalty in the 39th minute. And despite a long VAR review, the referee stuck to his decision.
Onuachu took responsibility and calmly dispatched the ball from the spot, to remote parity after 43 minutes.
