Francis Ezeh’s early strike sets the ball rolling
Having been deployed as an impact substitute in recent games, Ezeh was finally handed a starting role—and he wasted no time proving his worth, Footballrover reports.
The former Heartland forward, who came into the clash with strong momentum, struck in the 39th minute to give Keçiörengücü the lead.
His goal marked his third consecutive game on the scoresheet, following his crucial strike in their 3-3 comeback draw against Gençlerbirliği and another in their 2-0 victory over Pendikspor.
With confidence running high, Ezeh continued to push forward, aiming to extend his tally.
Late drama denies Keçiörengücü the win
Heading into the second half with a 1-0 lead, Keçiörengücü seemed in control.
However, the visitors fought back after being awarded a penalty, which Benhur Keser expertly converted to level the score.
Shortly after, Nigerian forward Olarenwaju Kayode entered the game for Erokspor.
Keçiörengücü regained their lead in the 85th minute when Senegalese striker Mame Diouf found the back of the net, sparking celebrations among the home fans.
But just when victory seemed certain, Junior Fernandes stunned the hosts with a last-minute equaliser, ensuring the game ended in a dramatic 2-2 draw.
Despite the result, Keçiörengücü remains in sixth place with 42 points, while Erokspor sits in 12th with 37 points.
