The Week 26 clash between Gaziantep FK and Antalyaspor turned into a night in which both sides had spells of control, but neither could find the decisive breakthrough. The home team went ahead but could not hold on, while Antalyaspor dug in defensively to leave with a point.
Gaziantep FK were lifted when Fatih Köker found the net, with Hasan Ozel also playing a key role in the build-up to the goal.
