Decisive figure lifts Fatih Karagümrük in draw with Kocaelispor | OneFootball

David Datro Fofana struck in the 65th minute to put Fatih Karagümrük ahead, his clinical edge and carry play anchoring a 1-1 draw with Kocaelispor.

He timed his run through the middle and finished from the centre of the box off Daniel Anthony Johnson's pass (65.), capping a spell where he constantly probed Kocaelispor's back line.

From there, Fofana kept stretching the game with direct dribbles and counter carries, forcing the visitors to defend deep and concede territory, even as the tie turned late in the third minute of second half stoppage time.

The forward ended with four attempts, nine touches in the box and five recoveries, a blend of penalty box presence and hard running that made him Karagümrük's reference point.

Fatih Karagümrük host İstanbulspor next in the Türkiye Kupasi. Kocaelispor host Antalyaspor in the Süper Lig.
