Watch: Onuachu replicates Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s goal in Trabzonspor vs Konyaspor clash

Southampton loanee, Paul Onuachu, recently bagged a brace in Trabzonspor’s 2-1 victory over Konyaspor

Super Eagles forward, Paul Onuachu, showcased his skills by replicating a goal famously scored by former AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic in Trabzonspor’s victory over Konyaspor, Soccernet.ng reports.

In the Friday evening clash at Papara Park, Onuachu, currently on loan to Trabzonspor from Southampton, made a significant impact, scoring two goals for Abdullah Avci’s side.

On the 59th minute, Onuachu found the back of the net to give his team the lead. Although Louka Prip later leveled the score for the visitors, Onuachu stunned everyone with a remarkable second goal.

He capitalized on Enis Destan’s cross, using the back of his foot to strike the ball into the net, reminiscent of a goal famously scored by Ibrahimovic for Sweden in 2004, securing a 1-1 draw against Italy.
