Trabzonspor' Triumph and Trial Onuachu's Goal Leads to Final at a Price
Trabzonspor has secured their place in their 16th Turkish Cup final, driven by a crucial goal from Paul Onuachu. However, the victory was bittersweet as Onuachu, a key player for the Super Eagles, was sidelined due to an injury shortly after his 54 minute goal against Fatih Karagumruk. His injury came just three minutes after his goal during an aerial collision.
The towering striker had only recently returned to the pitch following a previous injury. Despite this setback, Trabzonspor clinched a 4-0 victory after a mandated rematch of their initial game, which ended 3-2 in their favour. The team is now poised to face Besiktas in the finals, aiming for their 10th cup victory, their first since the 2019-2020 season.
