Kayode ends six-game goal drought as Mali’s Sacko downs Gaziantep

Olarenwaju Kayode ended his six-game goal drought in Sunday’s league encounter as Mali’s Hadi Sacko condemned Gaziantep to a 2-1 defeat against Denizlispor.

The Nigeria international previously scored a goal on August 26, against Genclerbirligi where he bagged a brace.

After a goalless first-half at the Gaziantep Stadium, Kayode fired the hosts ahead in the 54th minute but Sacko’s goals in the 58th and 85th minutes turned the game around for Denizlispor.

The opener made the Shakhtar Donetsk loanee Gaziantep’s second joint-top scorer this term with three goals in nine games, behind Ghana’s Patrick Twumasi, who has found the back of the net five times.
