Super Eagles striker Paul Onuachu was on target once more as Trabzonspor secured a vital 2-1 away victory over Caykur Rizespor in the Turkish Super Lig.
Onuachu scored in the 19th minute to double Trabzonspor’s lead after Felipe Augusto had opened the scoring early in the second minute. Although Rizespor pulled one back in the 27th minute through Rak-Sakyi, Trabzonspor held firm to claim all three points.

— Trabzonspor (@Trabzonspor) October 18, 2025With the win, Trabzonspor climbed to second place on the league table with 20 points from 9 matches, just two points behind leaders Galatasaray, who sit on 22 points with a game in hand.
Paul Onuachu has now found the back of the net in four straight league games, underlining his status as one of the most in-form strikers in Europe at the moment, and his strike against Rizespor has taken him to the very top of the Turkish Super Lig goal scorers chart.
The Nigerian forward leads the race with 7 goals and 1 assist, putting him ahead of Besiktas’ Ricardo Silva and Galatasaray’s Mauro Icardi, both on 5 goals, and his consistency in front of goal continues to cement his reputation as one of the league’s deadliest strikers this season.
For Nigerian fans, Onuachu’s rise as the league’s top scorer is a major boost ahead of international duty, and his red hot form is now drawing attention to the Super Eagles coach, strengthening calls for him to be recalled to the national team as one of Africa’s most lethal attacking talents..
