Iğdır FK claimed a dramatic 2-1 victory over İstanbulspor when Serdar Gürler scored in the 90+8th minute, just two minutes after the hosts had equalized.

The visitors took the lead in the 28th minute through Arda Çolak and held that advantage through halftime. İstanbulspor had a chance to level from the penalty spot in the 90+4th minute, but Berk Ali Nizam failed to convert.

The missed penalty did not end the late drama. Ömer Faruk Duymaz brought İstanbulspor level in the 90+6th minute, only for Gürler to restore Iğdır FK’s lead moments later. No further goals followed, and Iğdır FK secured all three points.

The result gave Iğdır FK its third straight win and fourth of the season, lifting the team to third place with 12 points. İstanbulspor remained without a league victory, sitting 19th on two points. In the seventh week, İstanbulspor will visit Kayserispor, while Iğdır FK will host Mardin 1969 Spor.
