Olanrewaju Kayode’s double drives Gazisehir Gaziantep to victory

Olanrewaju Kayode scored twice to lead Gazisehir Gaziantep to a 4-1 victory over Genclerbirligi in a Turkish Super Lig game on Monday night.

The 26-year-old striker hit the ground running after arriving at Gaziantep Arena on loan from Ukrainian Premier League club Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer, scoring twice in his second game for Marius Sumudica men in front of their home fans.

The visitors started the game on an uninspiring note after Ahmet Oguz received a red card 27 minutes into the match.

Kayode ensured his side benefitted from the visitors’ setback by opening the scoring with an individual effort five minutes later.
