Analysis The numbers behind the result
Gençlerbirliği punish Alanyaspor with ruthless finishing
Gençlerbirliği's 5-0 victory was fully deserved, as they outperformed Alanyaspor in both xG (1.91 vs 0.50) and shot quality, converting 7 of their 12 shots on target. Despite Alanyaspor dominating possession (59%), they failed to create meaningful chances, managing just 3 shots on target from their total of 9 attempts. Gençlerbirliği's clinical edge proved decisive.
The home side took control early with Oğulcan Ülgün's opener in the first minute, assisted by Franco Tongya. They then capitalised on a disjointed Alanyaspor defence, with Tongya scoring his own goal in the 59th minute before Tiago Gouveia (66', 78') and Pedro Mendes (68') added to the tally. Tongya was instrumental, contributing a goal and two assists.
The standout stat was Gençlerbirliği's shot conversion rate: they scored 5 goals from an xG of just 1.91, highlighting their exceptional finishing and Alanyaspor's defensive frailties.
