Paul Onuachu records another goal to help Trabzonspor beat Rizespor

Paul Onuachu was on target once more as Turkish side Trabzonspor defeated Çaykur Rizespor 2–1 away from home in their Turkish Süper Lig encounter on Saturday.

The visitors took the lead after just two minutes through Felipe Augusto. Onuachu then doubled the advantage in the 19th minute with a brilliant header.

Jesurun Rak-Sakyi reduced the deficit for Rizespor three minutes before the half-hour mark, but the match result was sealed in the first half.

The goal is the Nigeria international’s fifth goal in his last four league outings for the Black Sea Storm.

The 31-year-old has so far registered seven goals and one assist in nine league appearances for the Turkish Cup runners-up this season, who currently sit second on the table after eight matches. He returned to the Turkish top flight on a permanent basis from Southampton following the club’s relegation from the English Premier League.
