Nwakaeme and Mikel inspire Trabzonspor to victory against Antalyaspor

Anthony Nwakaeme found the back of the net while John Obi Mikel featured as Trabzonspor secured a 3-1 away win against Antalyaspor in Sunday’s Turkish Super Lig encounter.

Nwakaeme was afforded his 14th league start this season and made the most of the opportunity scoring his fourth goal.

The Black Sea Storm raced into the lead in the third minute through Alexander Sorloth before Ondrej Celustka levelled for the hosts.

Super Eagles striker Nwakaeme then restored the lead for his side in the 25th minute after benefitting from Daniel Sturridge’s assist before Yusuf Sari sealed the victory.
