Gaziantep’s victory was brought by a double by Denis Dragush and a goal by Dejan Sorescu

After seven matches without a win in the championship, Gaziantep confidently defeated Istanbulspor at the stage of the last Turkish Super League.

The hosts opened the scoring after only six minutes thanks to Loshai, but Denis Dragush equalized in the 15th minute.

A quarter of an hour after the restart, the striker of the Romanian national team scored again with a shot from 11 meters.

In the 70th minute, “Istanbul Sport” remained a numerical loser after the withdrawal of the same Loshay, and Marius Šumudike’s team scored again in extra time thanks to Dejan Sorescu.

It was the first goal scored by a Romanian in a Turkish shirt.

After this victory, Gaziantep gains 27 points and climbs to 15th place, just one point above the relegation zone.
