Iheanacho Scores Again as Bursaspor Draws with Antalyaspor

Super Eagles star Kelechi Iheanacho found the net again as Bursaspor played to a 1-1 draw against Antalyaspor at the Antalya Stadium on Friday night in the TFF 1. Lig.

The Nigerian forward scored first in the 26th minute. He finished well after receiving a pass from Amine Boutrah.

Iheanacho had almost scored earlier in the match, but his first shot hit the side post as Bursaspor aimed to take charge of the game.

The former Leicester City striker kept putting pressure on the Antalyaspor defence. He nearly added a second goal just six minutes after his first. Boutrah set him up again, but Iheanacho could not get his shot on target.

Bursaspor's lead did not last until halftime. Antalyaspor equalized just before the break with an own goal from Toral Bayramov. The mistake beat goalkeeper Kerem Matışlı and brought the hosts back into the match.

In the second half, Iheanacho thought he had scored again to give Bursaspor the lead. He had a nice finish, but the goal was ruled out for offside due to a foul in the build-up.

The former Manchester City and Sevilla player could not find the net again, and both teams ended up sharing the points.

Even though Bursaspor missed out on the win, Iheanacho's goal is a boost for him. He was back on the scoresheet after his impressive scoring run ended in Bursaspor's 3-0 win over Bandırmaspor last weekend.

Before that game, the 30-year-old had scored 16 goals in 12 straight league matches, setting a new record in Turkish football with his amazing scoring ability.

His 17th goal highlights the great form he has shown since arriving in Turkey. Iheanacho has quickly become one of Bursaspor's key attacking players.

Having ended his historic scoring streak last weekend, Iheanacho will be happy to score again. He will now aim to keep up his good form as Bursaspor continues its season.
