In a remarkable display of form, Paul Onuachu netted a goal in his tenth consecutive match, helping Trabzonspor secure a 1-0 victory over Caykur Rizespor in the Turkish Super Lig. Onuachu's goal came early in the second half, showcasing his ability to find the net after a well-measured assist by Oleksandr Zubkov.
