Standout star steers Başakşehir to the points at Eyüpspor | OneFootball

Eldor Shomurodov decided it in the 53rd minute with a left-footed finish, as Başakşehir beat Eyüpspor 2-1.

The forward's goal came from a composed run and strike into the bottom-right corner, arriving onto Christopher Operi's pass to double the visitors' advantage.

He stayed busy after the breakthrough, drawing a low stop from Jankat Yilmaz (61.). Moments later he forced another save from the edge (67.). He then slipped in Ivan Brnic for a shot on target (73.).

His link play kept Eyüpspor off balance late on, teeing up Olivier Kemen whose effort missed to the right (90.). He also drove wide himself from the left channel (91.).

Shomurodov finished with six attempts, three on target, and five key passes, plus 19 successful final third passes, underlining a display that blended penalty box threat with creative supply. He is second in Süper Lig scoring on 15 goals.
