Nigerian forward Henry Onyekuru was on target for Galatasaray who got a 3-1 away win at Fenerbahce.
Onyekuru scored the third of the game for Galatasaray to seal the win, their first at bitter rivals Fenerbahce for the first time in 20 years.
Before his goal which came in the 90th minute, the 22-year-old missed two chances for Galatasaray, first early in the first half when he couldn’t get his effort on target after a fine run from the left.
He blazed an effort over in the second half after a loose ball fell to him in the box.
For his goal, the Nigeria international was quickest to a clearance in Galatasaray's half and raced all the way to inside the box, dribbling past the goalkeeper before finishing into an empty net.
“We did it; Today we made history and won after 20 years at their home. I feel blessed to be able to be a part of this moment. This win is for you,” the forward wrote on Instagram after the game.
