Kocaelispor Grind Down Gaziantep With Second-Half Surge

Kocaelispor needed patience before finding their rhythm at Turka Kocaeli Stadium, but once they did, Gaziantep had no answer. The first half produced little in the way of clear chances, with both sides feeling each other out in a cagey, goalless opening period. Everything changed after the break. Berkan Kutlu broke the deadlock in the 56th minute, finishing smartly to give the home crowd something to cheer. Twenty minutes later, Daniel Agyei put the result beyond doubt with a well-taken 76th-minute strike, doubling the advantage. The match stayed free of cards or penalty controversy, with the second-half goals doing all the talking. The win lifts Kocaelispor to 12 points, a strong return that keeps them climbing the table and building confidence at home. For Gaziantep FK, it's a frustrating afternoon that leaves them stuck on 8 points, still searching for the consistency needed to push further up the standings.
