Rizespor vs Alanyaspor

Alanyaspor snatched a tight 1-0 away victory over Rizespor at the Çaykur Didi Stadium, in a match that stayed goalless and tense for most of the ninety minutes before a costly defensive mishap decided things. The breakthrough came in the 70th minute when Rizespor defender Zakaria Ariss turned the ball into his own net, gifting the visitors all three points. It was a cruel twist for the hosts, who had created the better first-half chances — Ahmed Kutucu curled a shot just wide in the 21st minute, and Olawoyin was denied by goalkeeper Victor four minutes later. Corners from both Laçi and Hadergjonaj also came close to producing an opener but were cleared away. The result leaves Rizespor with back-to-back losses and stuck on 6 points, while Alanyaspor climbs to 7 points after a second win of the season. Rizespor will look to bounce back away at Eyüpspor, while Alanyaspor return home to host Göztepe.
