Onyekuru’s brace fires Galatasaray to Cup final

Henry Onyekuru struck twice with Martins Linnes, Sofiane Feghouli and Kostas Mitroglou each scoring once as Galatasaray eliminated Malatyaspor 5-2 to reach the Turkey Cup final on Thursday evening.

The 22-year-old who has continued to prove his lethal form in front of goal scored the third and fourth goals in the 58th and 74th minutes at the Yeni Malatyspor stadium to take his number of goals to 14 across all competitions with three assists.

Onyekuru who contributed to the goals scored by Linnes and Feghouli commended his teammates for the victory which he admitted didn’t come cheap.

“I congratulate all my teammates because it’s not easy to play away against a team like Malatyaspor. Everyone gave his face, he performed very well. Very nice game and we are going to the finals with a very nice score,” Onyekuru said on the club’s twitter handle.

He was however booked in the 50th minute by centre referee Alper Ulusoy.
