Decisive figure snatches stoppage-time success for Samsunspor | OneFootball

Kouadou Assoumou decided the game in the second minute of second half stoppage time with a glancing header, giving Samsunspor a 1-0 win at Kasımpaşa.

In the 33rd minute, Assoumou tested Andreas Gianniotis with a rising effort from outside the box, signalling the threat he would carry between the lines.

He kept asking questions, drawing fouls. One surge earned a free kick on the left wing (77.) as Kasımpaşa's back line dropped deeper.

Deep into second half stoppage time, he peeled off his marker to meet Antoine Makoumbou's clipped cross, directing his header into the top right corner.

Assoumou finished with two attempts, both on target, while winning five fouls and regaining possession five times, a blend of aggression and timing that kept the hosts unsettled.

Samsunspor rise from seventh to sixth and host Trabzonspor next. Kasımpaşa stay 15th and visit Gaziantep next.
