Paul Onuachu played a key role as Trabzonspor were held to a draw by Antalyaspor in the Turkish Super Lig.
The hosts took the lead in the 43rd minute through Van de Streek, but Trabzonspor responded shortly after the break.
Onuachu calmly converted a penalty ten minutes into the second half to restore parity, a goal that moved him level with Eldor Shomurodov at the top of the league’s scoring chart.
The Nigerian forward had a golden opportunity to complete the turnaround in the 81st minute when Trabzonspor were awarded another spot kick.
However, Antalyaspor goalkeeper Julian came out on top, denying Onuachu a second goal of the night.
Despite the missed chance, Onuachu delivered a solid all-round performance.
