Gaziantep responded quickly in the second half, earning a penalty after a handball in the box. Alexandru Maxim stepped up and converted, leveling the score at 1-1. For a brief moment, it seemed the visitors might disrupt Fenerbahçe’s rhythm. But the hosts regained control almost immediately. In the 59th minute, N’Golo Kante, making his tenth appearance for Fenerbahçe, scored his first goal for the club, putting the home side back in front and reigniting the crowd’s energy.
From that moment, Fenerbahçe never looked back. Nene struck twice more, first in the 68th minute following a slick pass from Guendouzi, then again in the 79th minute, connecting beautifully with Marco Asensio’s precise feed to complete his hat-trick. The dominance was evident in every phase of play, with Fenerbahçe controlling possession and creating opportunities at will.
This victory lifts Fenerbahçe to 60 points, narrowing the gap on league leaders Galatasaray to just four points, thanks to a game in hand. It’s a statement result for Domenico Tedesco’s squad, showing resilience after previous disappointments and reinforcing their title credentials. For Gaziantep, their three-match unbeaten run comes to an end, leaving them in ninth with 33 points, still mid-table but with plenty of work to do.
While the performance on the pitch was electric, an unusual sight caught attention off it. The stands at Kadıköy were notably sparse, a reminder that even big wins sometimes happen under quiet support, adding an intriguing layer to Fenerbahçe’s journey this season.
Stay tuned as Fenerbahçe continues their push for the title, with critical fixtures ahead that could define the championship race. Keep watching for live updates, expert analysis and full coverage of the Süper Lig’s most pivotal moments.
