Man City defender unable to prevent draw in first appearance for Turkish giants
Antalyaspor put an end to Galatasaray’s three game win streak with a 1-1 draw at the Antalya Arena on Sunday evening.
The Lions took the lead thanks to a well timed finish from Bafetimbi Gomis.
The former Swansea striker now has five goals and two assists in four games for Galatasaray.

Samuel Eto’o scored inside the last 10 minutes to prevent the Lions from recording their fourth win in a row.
Manchester City defender Jason Denayer played his first game since joining the Galatasaray on loan.
Denayer did not make his debut as he has previously spent a season at the Lions.
The Belgium international replaced Serdar Aziz on 63 minutes to play as a centre-back.
The 22-year-old defender make one tackle, an interception and a clearance but to be fair he did not have a lot to deal with as Galatasaray controlled the lion-share of possession.
Galatasaray remain in 1st place following the draw and take on Kasimpasa next.
