Goztepe (Izmir), led by Stanimir Stoilov, defeated Antalyaspor as a guest 2:1 in a match from the 14th round of the Turkish Super League. With this success, the “yellow-reds” from Izmir collect 26 points and climb to 4th place, 5 behind Fenerbahçe and Trabzonspor, who are ahead of them.

Goztepe made a turnaround after Antalyaspor took a 1:0 lead. The two teams had a shared advantage before the break, but the hosts struck first. In the 40th minute, Safuri took a free kick from the right wing, and Veysel Sarı jumped the highest, close to the penalty area, to head the ball into the net - 1:0.

In a similar way, “goz, goz“ restored the tie three minutes into the second half. Taha Altıkardesh headed in Efkan's cross into the penalty area for 1:1.

A third headed goal decided the match, as Brazilian Juan da Silva - who had only scored twice so far - scored for 1:2, bringing about a complete turnaround in the 52nd minute. Amin Sherni provided the assist, but this time from a game situation.
