Denizli İY Güreller returned to winning ways with a narrow 1-0 home victory against Alanya Kestelspor on December 17, 2025. The single-goal margin was enough to end a poor run of form and provide a vital boost in the Turkish Third League standings. In a match of few clear-cut chances, the decisive moment came just after the hour mark when Denizli converted a penalty after a handball was awarded in the box. Alanya Kestelspor pushed for an equalizer in the final stages, but the Denizli defense, inspired by a man-of-the-match performance from their goalkeeper, stood firm to preserve the lead. The result was a relief for Denizli İY Güreller and their supporters, moving the team up the table and restoring some confidence.
