Jackson Muleka converted from the spot in the fourth minute of second half stoppage time to give Konyaspor a 2-1 win at Kocaelispor.

Before the late drama, the forward glanced a header against the bar (74.), his movement between the centre-backs continually opening lanes.

He kept attacking and drew contact repeatedly, registering eight touches in the box and being fouled six times. Moments later, after the equaliser (86.), he held his nerve again from the spot to settle it.

Muleka finished with five attempts, won seven aerial duels and regained possession 15 times, a relentless mix that kept Konyaspor on the front foot.

His ability to pin defenders and attack crosses forced Kocaelispor deeper, creating the spaces that sustained the turnaround.

Konyaspor climb from 13th to 12th and host Gençlerbirliği next. Kocaelispor remain seventh and visit Alanyaspor next.
