The 31 year old’s strike not only kept his remarkable scoring run alive but also extended his tally for the season, further establishing him among the Süper Lig’s most lethal forwards. With this win, Trabzonspor remained firmly in the hunt at the top end of the league table.
Editorial
Paul Onuachu’s continued scoring streak highlights his emergence as one of the most consistent and influential African forwards in European league football this season. Scoring in six straight matches is no small feat and reflects his sharpness, positional awareness and clinical finishing inside the penalty area. For Trabzonspor, having a forward of his calibre leading the line gives the team a clear focal point in attack.
The rolling momentum of scoring in successive games can have a pivotal psychological impact — not just for Onuachu, but for the entire squad. Coming from behind to win at an away ground shows resilience and tactical discipline, and Onuachu’s contributions at critical moments keep his side competitive in the title race. His consistency may soon make him one of the Süper Lig’s standout scorers by season’s end.
For Nigerian fans, Onuachu’s purple patch is another proud chapter in the story of Super Eagles exports thriving abroad. As he continues to find the back of the net regularly, his domestic and international stock rises, and supporters will be eager to see how he finishes this campaign.
