Nigeria international Kelechi Iheanacho continued his remarkable goalscoring run, netting for the 11th consecutive match as Bursaspor defeated Pendikspor 2-0 at the Atatürk Spor Kompleksi on Monday night.
Halil Akbunar gave Bursaspor the lead in the 10th minute, capping the hosts’ early dominance with the opening goal.
Iheanacho doubled the advantage two minutes after the hour mark. The striker met a cross from Lincoln inside the penalty area and headed the ball into the net unmarked to secure the victory.
The goal takes Iheanacho’s season tally to 15 goals and three assists in 10 league appearances for Bursaspor, highlighting his significant contribution to the club’s campaign.
The victory moved Mustafa Er’s side into second place in the league standings with 25 points, just one behind leaders Kayserispor.
Bursaspor will aim to continue their winning run when they face Keçiörengücü in their next league fixture on Sunday.
