Ghanaian international Jerome Opoku delivered a stellar performance for İstanbul Başakşehir in their 5-2 triumph over Antalyaspor on Sunday in the Turkish Super Lig.
The Black Stars center-back played a pivotal role in the defense and contributed offensively by assisting Krzysztof Piątek’s goal in the 80th minute.
Opoku’s solid display was crucial in helping his side secure all three points ahead of the September international break. Despite a challenging start, with Antalyaspor’s Sam Larsson scoring twice by the 41st minute, İstanbul Başakşehir mounted a remarkable comeback.
Joao Figueiredo’s goal just before halftime sparked the revival, and Krzysztof Piątek took center stage in the second half, scoring a hat-trick. Deniz Türüç added another goal to complete the emphatic win for the hosts.
Opoku’s performance highlights his growing influence at İstanbul Başakşehir, as he continues to be a key figure in their defensive lineup.
