Unseen hero anchors Fatih Karagümrük with stoppage time craft and defensive dominance | OneFootball

Igor Lichnovsky created the second goal in first half stoppage time, and Fatih Karagümrük beat Fenerbahçe 2-0.

On the stroke of the interval he kept a corner alive with a cushioned header across goal, providing the assist after his own close-range effort had been blocked moments earlier.

After the restart, Lichnovsky marshalled the box relentlessly as Kanarya poured in crosses and corners, repeatedly winning first contact and clearing danger under pressure.

He finished with 15 clearances and three aerials won, plus one big chance created and that assist, the definitive blend of set-piece threat and penalty-area control.

With Karagümrük conceding just 31.8 per cent possession, his positioning and timing ensured the hosts absorbed territory and protected their goalkeeper during the heaviest spells.
