Kelechi Iheanacho alipiga magoli mawili ya uamuzi kuiwezesha Bursaspor kubadilisha mchezo na kushinda Batman Petrolspor kwa 2-1 katika mchezo wa kilele usiku wa Jumamosi.

Kurudi nyuma kwa msisimko

Batman Petrolspor walifungua mapigo kupitia Doria katika dakika ya 29, lakini Iheanacho alipata usawa kutoka kwa penalti muda mfupi baada ya saa moja. Mshambuliaji huyo wa Nigeria kisha alitia muhuri wa ushindi dakika tano kabla ya muda wa mwisho, akimpa Bursaspor pointi tatu muhimu na kupanua faida yao vileleni.

Akizungumza na waandishi wa habari baada ya mwisho wa mchezo, Iheanacho alifafanua umuhimu wa matokeo hayo kwa timu na mji wa Bursa.

"We are happy, we won today. It was a great victory for us, especially for the people of Bursa who were watching the game," alisema Iheanacho. "We knew it was going to be a tough game, but we came out on top and won. We are very happy to return to Bursa with a win."

Kukosa mashabiki — lakini roho yao ilikuwepo

Jambo moja lililomhuzunisha Iheanacho lilikuwa kutokuwepo kwa mashabiki wa Bursaspor uwanjani. Mshambuliaji huyo alisema aliwakosa sana lakini akasisitiza kwamba roho yao iliibeba timu katika nusu ya pili ngumu.

"To be fair, we really missed the fans today. Before the warm-up, I was looking to see if they were here. I don't know why they were not here, but their spirit was with us today," alisema. "We fought hard in the second half to come back and win the game. Their spirit is with us, and we won for them and the entire people of Bursa, so we are happy."

Mwanzo wa ajabu wa Iheanacho katika Bursaspor

Tangu kujiunga na Bursaspor majira ya joto, Iheanacho amevutia hisia kubwa kwa kupiga magoli 11 katika mashindano yote, na haraka kuwa mpendwa wa mashabiki. Magoli mawili ya Jumamosi yanazidi kuimarisha sifa yake inayokua.

Ushindi huu unaweka Bursaspor pointi tatu juu kileleni. Watarejea kwenye ligi Jumapili tarehe 11 Oktoba watakapopokea Mardin BB uwanjani mwao.
