Beykoz Ishakli Spor 1-1 Duzcespor: Late Equaliser Denies Visitors Victory
Beykoz Ishakli Spor and Duzcespor shared the points in Turkey’s Third League after a 1-1 draw on 7 November 2026. Duzcespor led for much of the match, but a late equaliser from Burak Şen rescued a point for the hosts.
Match overview
Duzcespor started the brighter and took the lead in the 22nd minute when Emre Kaya found space at the near post and converted from a right-sided cross. The visitors then dropped deeper, looking to protect their advantage and hit on the counter-attack.
Beykoz Ishakli Spor dominated possession after the break but found chances hard to come by against a disciplined Duzcespor defence. The pressure finally told in the 84th minute when Şen reacted quickest to a loose ball in the box and scored from close range. Neither side could create another clear opening in the final minutes.
Key moments
- 22’ — Emre Kaya puts Duzcespor ahead.
- 58’ — Beykoz’s first sustained spell of pressure ends with a shot off target.
- 84’ — Burak Şen equalises for Beykoz Ishakli Spor.
Tactical story and standout players
Duzcespor’s game plan was clear: stay compact, defend the central areas and use Kaya’s movement on the break. It worked for long periods, and their goalkeeper made important saves to protect the lead. However, the visitors’ reluctance to push for a second goal allowed Beykoz to build momentum.
Şen was the hosts’ most influential player, constantly finding pockets between the lines and eventually getting the reward his performance deserved. Kaya’s first-half goal was a reminder of Duzcespor’s attacking quality, but the away side will rue not killing the game off.
Turkish Third League impact
The draw gives both teams something to build on in the Turkish Third League standings. Beykoz Ishakli Spor will value the character shown in the comeback, while Duzcespor will focus on the two dropped points after leading for more than an hour.
