"Scoring machine" again... Oh Hyun-gyu, '4 goals in 5 matches' since joining Beşiktaş

South Korean national team striker Oh Hyeon-gyu showcased his peak form by finding the net again in the Turkish Cup competition.

Oh started in Besiktas's 2025-2026 Turkish Cup (Türkiye Kupası) Group C fourth-round home match against Çaykur Rizespor at Tüpraş Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey, on Wednesday. He scored an additional goal in the 42nd minute of the first half when Besiktas was already leading 2-0, contributing to the team's 4-1 victory. This was his fourth goal (with one assist) in five official matches since joining Besiktas.

Oh left Belgian club Genk during the winter transfer window to join Besiktas. He made a strong impression by scoring in three consecutive league matches starting from his Turkish Süper Lig debut against Alanyaspor on January 9 (2-2 draw). Oh became the first player in Besiktas history to score in three consecutive matches starting from his debut after a transfer. His scoring streak ended on January 28 in the Süper Lig 24th-round away match against Kocaelispor (1-0 win), but he found the net again in the Turkish Cup match, despite playing only the first 45 minutes.

Oh started as the central striker. Besiktas took a 2-0 lead through consecutive goals from Amir Murillo in the 27th minute and Salih Uçan in the 38th minute of the first half. In the 42nd minute, when Orkun Kökçü's shot was saved by the goalkeeper, Oh was positioned to tap in the rebound, making it 3-0. Oh was substituted for Mustafa Hekimoğlu at the start of the second half.

With this victory, Besiktas accumulated 10 points from three wins and one draw, overtaking Fenerbahçe (9 points, three wins and one loss) to lead Group C.
