Iheanacho Shines with Brace in Bursaspor's Comeback Win

Kelechi Iheanacho, the Super Eagles forward, scored a brace to help Bursaspor secure a 2-1 comeback victory against Manisa at the Manisa 19 Mayıs Stadium on Monday evening. Manisa initially took the lead in the 20th minute through Cheikne Sylla.

However, Iheanacho equalized in the 27th minute with a skillful strike from the edge of the penalty area. He then scored again in stoppage time, capitalizing on a mistake by Manisa's goalkeeper, Vedat Karakuş, to secure the win.

This performance marked Iheanacho's sixth consecutive match with a goal, bringing his total to eight goals and two assists in the first six matches of the 2026/2027 Turkish 1. Lig season.

His scoring prowess is a significant boost for both Bursaspor and the Super Eagles, as he continues to be a key player in the attacking lineup.
