Match Report

Rizespor staged a dramatic late comeback to beat Gaziantep FK 2-1 in Super Lig Round 29 on Monday. Two goals in the space of two minutes sealed all three points for the Rize side after a deeply frustrating evening. Mohamed Bayo gave Gaziantep the lead in the 23rd minute, and the visitors protected that advantage for over an hour as Rizespor struggled to break through. The hosts dominated — 24 shot attempts to just ten — and were finally rewarded when Qazim Laçi equalized in the 79th minute. Ali Sowe then settled it two minutes later to complete the turnaround. The result keeps Rizespor pushing in a tight mid-table picture and hands them the psychological edge over near-neighbours Gaziantep. The visitors, who collected four yellow cards as tensions rose, will rue holding firm so long only to buckle in the final 11 minutes.
