Veteran manager Jose Mourinho has lauded Gaziantep Football Club striker David Okereke's feat despite his side falling to a 3-1 defeat in the Trendyol Super League match-week 14 at the Ulker Stadium, Nigeriasoccernet.com gathered.

The Nigerian striker levelled his side up in the 41st min, few minutes before halftime after the host took an early lead through O?uz Ayd?n in the 3rd minute to make the tie 1-1, it ended up to be a consolation as they ran out eventual losers in the four goals thriller.

Speaking after the game, Mourinho spoke highly of the former Cremonese striker  via Trtspor; “I congratulate David Okereke. He is the first player to score against all three teams that I managed. He scored against my teams while playing for Venezia, Cremonese and Gaziantep".

Okereke would be hoping to continue his goalscoring run when they play host to Batman Petrolspor in the 4th round of the Ziraat Turkish Cup.
