Decisive figure leads Gençlerbirliği past Kasımpaşa | OneFootball

Dimitris Goutas won the penalty in the 66th minute that led to the winner as Gençlerbirliği beat Kasımpaşa 3-2. He had earlier headed the equaliser in the eighth minute of first half stoppage time.

Before the interval, the defender levelled with a glanced header from Metehan Mimaroğlu's cross in the eighth minute of first half stoppage time.

After the restart, he attacked another dead ball and was fouled to earn a spot kick (66.). VAR confirmed the penalty. Franco Tongya converted (70.).

Beyond those moments, Goutas dominated physically. He won eight aerial duels, made seven clearances and won possession 10 times, repeatedly repelling Kasımpaşa and keeping Gençlerbirliği on the front foot.

With consistent set piece positioning and Mimaroğlu's delivery, he pinned Kasımpaşa's markers and turned restarts into a platform for Gençlerbirliği's turnaround.

Gençlerbirliği rise from 16th to 15th and visit Trabzonspor next. Kasımpaşa host Galatasaray next.

How high would you rate Goutas's performance tonight?
