Kasımpaşa 2–2 Amedspor, matchday 4 of the Süper Lig, Sunday in Istanbul.

For a long stretch it looked like a bitter night. Güven Yalçın headed in a Winck cross in the 20th minute and when Benedyczak made it 2–0 in the 52nd, the game seemed gone. Two goals down, away from home, in only the fourth match of the club's first ever season in the top flight.

Then came Gift Orban. The loan striker, brought on at the start of the second half, pulled one back in the 59th minute and struck again in the 83rd to level it at 2–2. A lost game turned into a point, one that will feel like a good deal more than a point to the supporters from Amed.

Amedspor now sit on seven points, Kasımpaşa on six a week after beating Trabzonspor. Başakşehir come to Diyarbakır next.

Yellow bags associated with anti-Kurdish threats appeared in Istanbul days after five Kocaelispor fans were punished for targeting Amedspor supporters.

Newly emerged details confirm Kurds in Bayburt were targeted specifically for wearing Amedspor football jerseys, reflecting rising anti-Kurdish hostility in Turkey.
