According to a report by BBC Sport on Saturday, November 7, 2026, Galatasaray claimed a thrilling 4-3 victory over Amedspor in the Turkish Super Lig after surviving a strong second-half comeback from their opponents.
Rafael Leão gave Galatasaray an early lead in the seventh minute after receiving a fine pass from Lucas Torreira before calmly sending a low shot into the net. The hosts continued to put pressure on Amedspor, who struggled to cope with their attacking play.
Leão remained a threat going forward, while Alexey Batrakov also helped Galatasaray create more chances. However, Amedspor goalkeeper Alban Lafont made several important saves to keep the score down.
Galatasaray increased their lead shortly before halftime when Lafont accidentally turned a dangerous cross into his own goal. The home side went into the break with a comfortable 2-0 advantage.
Amedspor returned for the second half with a stronger approach and made changes in an attempt to get back into the game. However, Galatasaray scored again in the 59th minute when Batrakov's effort took a deflection and found the back of the net.
Dia Saba pulled one goal back for Amedspor in the 62nd minute after scoring directly from a free kick. Galatasaray goalkeeper Ugurcan Cakir and his defenders failed to deal with the delivery.
The visitors continued their comeback three minutes later when Gift Orban headed home Furkan Soyalp's cross to make it 3-2, putting Galatasaray under serious pressure.
However, Baris Yilmaz restored Galatasaray's two-goal lead in the 80th minute. He met Gabriel Sara's excellent cross with a header into an empty net, making it 4-2 and seemingly putting the result beyond Amedspor's reach.
Despite falling behind again, Amedspor continued to fight and scored another goal in the 90th minute through Yira Sor, who converted a rebound to make it 4-3.
Galatasaray managed to hold on during the closing minutes and secured all three points despite Amedspor's late pressure.
