As it happened 

Following Galatasaray’s delay in lifting the Turkish league title last weekend, Victor Osimhen led the attack for Okan Buruk.

The home team struggled to get themselves going in the game, missing several chances to take the lead.

Their missed opportunity came back to bite them as Soner Dikmen gave Antalyaspor the lead just before half-time.

In the second half, the host got back into the game with Mario Lemina restoring parity, but the visitors hit back and took the lead from a Soner Dikmen free kick.

Galatasaray did not relent in their effort to get the game level, and their reward paid off after the referee awarded them a penalty, which Osimhen slotted home.
