Galatasaray Espor tilted the tempo firmly in its favour as it beat Çaykur Rizespor 1-0 in TEFL Week 4. In a tight, physical contest with few clear chances, the home side stayed disciplined at the back and did just enough to take all three points with a single goal.

The decisive moment came when Noam Ardiot found the net. Set up by Kevin Yanakçı, the goal gave Galatasaray Espor both the lead and a major psychological boost. Ardiot’s display was not limited to his finishing either, as his work rate in midfield and contribution at both ends of the pitch also stood out.

For the hosts, Bryan Toffin’s solidity in defence and Can Demirlenk’s two saves to keep his goal intact were the foundations of the win. Çaykur Rizespor, meanwhile, could not find the cutting edge to change the scoreline in a game that required six saves, although Eren Kütük was among the players who held firm at the back. Galatasaray Espor remain top after this result.
