Match in Five Sentences: Antalyaspor and Alanyaspor drew 0-0 in the Süper Lig. In the 25th minute, Hwang Ui-jo forced Julián Cuesta into a low save as the visitors threatened. The defining moment came when VAR ruled out Nuno Miguel Reis Lima's finish for the visitors (66.). Antalyaspor had 55.7% possession but produced only one shot on target from seven attempts, while the away side managed two from eight. Antalyaspor stay 15th on 29 points and visit Galatasaray next, while Alanyaspor remain 12th on 34 and host Kayserispor.
Player of the Match: Huseyin Turkmen marshalled the back line with eight clearances and three tackles won, completing 62 of 70 passes to help secure the clean sheet.
Stat of the Match: Alanyaspor earned eight corners, reflecting how they forced territory even without finding a breakthrough.
Three Things We Learned: VAR proved pivotal for the visitors, with the chalked-off second half strike stopping their momentum. Antalyaspor's control of the ball (55.7% possession) did not translate, yielding just one shot on target from seven attempts. Hwang led Alanyaspor's threat with three attempts and one on target before making way late on.
