After few matches wait, Nigeria's Super Eagles winger Henry Onyekuru has finally opened his goal account with Turkish Super Lig side Galatasaray.

Former Eupen attacker has a successful loan spell with the club last season scoring 14 league goals and also helped the club to a domestic double, BSN Reports.

In a derby, Galatasaray visited Fenerbahce on Sunday evening and it was Max Kruise that opened the scoring for the host in the 21st minute from the penalty spot.

Ryan Donk leveled the game in the 40th minute before Colombia international Radamel Falcao put Galatasaray ahead in the 80th minute from the penalty spot.

Onyekuru who has been a chief tormentor in the match put the game beyond Fenerbahce in the 90th minute through a fine finish.

He was later booked after he removed his shirt in goal celebration and was replaced by Adem Buyuk.

The 1-3 win ensured a maximum points for Galatasaray.
