Mikel's Trabzonspor beat Erzurumspor to reach Turkish Cup semi-finals

Trabzonspor are through to the semi-final of the Turkish Cup after defeating Erzurumspor 4-1 on Thursday evening, albeit John Obi Mikel and Anthony Nwakaeme were missing from action.

Nwakaeme got a goal as the Black Sea Storm strolled to a 5-0 win in the quarter-final first leg played on February 4.

Huseyin Cimsir’s men completed the double over Erzurumspor after hitting them for four inside Kazu0131m Karabekir Stadium, thanks to Guilherme's double and goals from Abdulkadir Parmak and Safa Ku0131nalu0131.

Just like Badou Ndiaye, Nwakaeme was an unused substitute, while ex-Chelsea star Mikel was not listed for the encounter alongside Caleb Ekuban.
