Paul Onuachu has impressed for Trabzonspor since joining on a season-long loan from Southampton
Super Eagles striker Paul Onuachu expressed disappointment with Trabzonspor’s style of play after their defeat to Adana Demispor in the Turkish Super Lig, Soccernet.ng reported.
Trabzonspor, also known as the Black Sea Storm, were hoping to build on their victory against Pendikspor, but were eliminated empty-handed in the match against the Adana-based club.
According to a report in Turkish media outlet Fotomac, Nigeria’s players questioned Trabzonspor’s approach during the match and suggested they could have played with a more attacking style of play.
Trabzonspor had more shots on goal than Demispor, with 18 to Demispor’s 13. However, he was unable to find the back of the net, with only three of Trabzonspor’s attempts going on goal.
Former Manchester United star Luis Nani took advantage of a deviation in the Trabzonspor defense to score the only goal of the game, giving the home side the lead in the 29th minute.
Despite Onuachu’s impressive performance with 3 goals and 1 assist in his last 4 league appearances, he was unable to save the team from defeat and Trabzonspor suffered their 4th loss of the 2023/24 season. .
The Burgundy Blues will be keen to bounce back from this setback when they host Alanyaspor in 15 days. Onuachu will not play in the Super Eagles’ matches against Saudi Arabia and Mozambique but will use this time to prepare for the next matches.
