His goal in the 90th minute gave his side a 3-1 lead but the game eventually finished 3-2 with Gaziantep getting a late consolation.

The 28-year-old who was shortly replaced after scoring on his debut had a very good game.

Playing from the right side of the attack, Ahmed Musa caused a lot of problems for the opposition and got the assist that led to Fatih Karagumruk's first goal.

Musa will now look to build on this performance and continue from where he stopped when his club travel to face Rizespor in their next fixture.
