In week 5 of the Trendyol 1. Lig we lost 1-0 at home to Muğlaspor at the Ümraniye City Stadium.
The only goal came in the first half
M. Diarra scored the game's only goal in the 26th minute, assisted by Bilal Ceylan. We were unable to change the scoreline over the remaining hour.
Possession ours, the result theirs
The statistics paint a picture of how control does not always produce results. We led possession 66-34 and the passing count by a wide margin, 636 to 329.
That dominance did not translate into chances, however: we were only 3-2 ahead on shots on target. Holding the ball for most of the match was not enough to create goalscoring opportunities.
Notes from the match
We picked up two bookings and our visitors three. The referee was Mustafa Hakan Belder.
Where the season stands
The result left us on three points after five weeks. The team's first win would arrive in week 8, away at Bandırmaspor.
