Israeli midfielder Dia Saba continued his strong season in Turkey on Saturday, scoring a remarkable goal in Adanaspor's dramatic 4-3 away defeat to Galatasaray. The match, part of the 11th round of the top league, saw Adanaspor fall behind 3-0 against the champions before mounting a significant comeback in Istanbul.

Saba was a key player for his team, starting the match and involved in several dangerous attacking plays. In the 18th minute, he unleashed a powerful shot from outside the box that was saved by Galatasaray goalkeeper Uğurcan Çakır. Later, in the 37th minute, Saba delivered an excellent pass to Armal Krasniqi, who entered the box but shot into the outer net.

Galatasaray took an early lead in the 7th minute through Rafaël Leão, doubled their advantage before halftime with an own goal by Alban Lafont, and extended it to 3-0 in the 59th minute via Alexey Baterkov. However, Saba reignited Adanaspor's hopes in the 62nd minute with his goal, making it 3-1. Gift Orban scored just three minutes later, narrowing the deficit further and turning the game into a thriller.

Barış Yılmaz restored Galatasaray's two-goal lead in the 80th minute, but Vieira Sor scored in stoppage time to make it 4-3. Despite the loss, Adanaspor remains surprisingly in second place in the league standings, though Trabzonspor has the opportunity to overtake them by the end of the matchday.
