Standout star settles it for Başakşehir against Göztepe | OneFootball

Ivan Brnic settled it in the 69th minute with a right-footed finish into the top right corner, giving Başakşehir a 2-1 win over Göztepe.

Arriving from the left channel, Brnic met a low pass and guided his shot unerringly into the top right corner (69.). The substitute's movement into the inside left pocket repeatedly pulled defenders out, and Yusuf Sari's feed set up the chance.

From there, he kept stretching the line, repeatedly darting beyond the last man and forcing Göztepe's defence to drop. His runs created space for team-mates and drew two offside calls as he continued to threaten.

He finished with one attempt and one on target – the decisive goal – from 32 touches, plus four crosses. He also won the ball twice high up the pitch and made a tackle, underlining his impact without the ball.

The left channel suited him, with Başakşehir's structure giving him room to receive on the half turn and attack the box. That constant movement kept Göztepe unstable and ensured the key phases went the hosts' way.

Başakşehir rise from sixth to fifth and visit Galatasaray next, while Göztepe host Alanyaspor.
