Göztepe's emphatic 4-0 win was thoroughly deserved, reflecting their superior xG (3.21 vs Eyüpspor's 1.39) despite holding less possession (47%). The turning point came within 10 minutes when Eyüpspor's Ahmed Abdullahi was sent off, allowing Juan to convert the resulting penalty and set the tone. Even before the red card, the visitors had controlled the shot count (19 total, 7 on target vs Eyüpspor's 7 and 4) and created higher-quality chances (14 shots inside the box at 1.95 xG).

Andre Henrique was the decisive figure, netting a hat-trick (48', 59', 76') from just 0.89 xG, showcasing lethal finishing. Eyüpspor's 53% possession was largely passive, generating only 1.39 xG from their 7 shots – a wasteful 18.1% conversion rate per xG. Göztepe's efficient set-piece dominance (7 corners to 3) compounded the hosts' misery. The key stat: Eyüpspor conceded 4 goals from just 3.21 xG against, highlighting defensive collapse after the early dismissal.
