Published: March 11, 2017
On his first appearance since returning from injury, Aminu Umar found the back of the net as Osmanlispor FK were held to a 1-1 draw by Bursaspor in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday afternoon.
The Super Eagles striker came off the bench at the start of the second half and with his team a goal behind, before he netted the equalizer with five minutes left on the clock.
A loose ball bounced in front of Aminu and his sharp shot from close range beat goalkeeper Harun Tekin.
During his spell on the sidelines, the 22-year-old missed eight games in row, including two crucial Europa League games against Olympiakos.
Osmanlispor FK, who sit tenth on the table, are guests to Kasimpasa in their last game before the international break.
