Kucukcekmece emerged victorious in a high-scoring affair, defeating Galata 4-2 in a Turkish Third League match on January 24, 2026. The away defeat for Galata was defined by defensive vulnerabilities, as they conceded four goals despite scoring twice themselves. Kucukcekmece established a strong lead with two early goals, but Galata fought back to reduce the deficit before halftime. However, the home side regained control in the second period, adding two more goals to seal the points, with Galata's late consolation doing little to affect the outcome. The match result highlighted the open nature of the contest but ultimately exposed Galata's frailties at the back. The Kucukcekmece coach would have been pleased with his attack, while Galata's manager faced more questions about his team's defensive organization.
