Vincent Aboubakar marked his return to action with a crucial equalizer for Hatayspor in their 1-1 draw against Konyaspor on matchday 12 of the Turkish Süper Lig.
The 32-year-old Cameroonian striker, who captains his national team, had been searching for his first league goal of the season.
His breakthrough came in the dying moments of the match, as he found the back of the net in the 90th minute to secure a point for his side.
Aboubakar had entered the game as a substitute in the 68th minute with his team trailing 1-0 after Konyaspor’s early strike in the 17th minute.
The late goal, a testament to his experience and poise, not only earned Hatayspor a valuable draw but also opened his personal account for the season.
This goal is expected to boost Aboubakar’s confidence as he looks to regain form after a quiet start to the campaign.
Having spent the international break with the Cameroon national team, his goal against Konyaspor could serve as a turning point in his domestic season.
Aboubakar’s timely equalizer will also be a welcome sight for Hatayspor, who are looking to improve their position in the league standings.
The club will hope that the striker’s form continues as they navigate the challenges of the Turkish Süper Lig.
