"Jhon Duran's last-gasp header rescued a point for Fenerbahce, who snatched a dramatic 1-1 draw with Galatasaray in the Intercontinental Derby. The former Aston Villa forward struck in the fifth minute of stoppage time, cancelling out Leroy Sane's first-half strike in Istanbul. Leaders Galatasaray were aiming to go four points clear at the Turkish Super Lig summit, and looked the more dangerous of the two sides during the first half."
"Duran's late heroics ensured Fenerbahce extended their unbeaten streak in the Turkish Super Lig to 15 matches, while they remain a point behind their opponents. Domenico Tedesco's side carried the greater attacking threat for large periods of the contest, registering 17 shots on goal at an expected goals (xG) value of exactly 1 to Galatasaray's six at an xG of just 0.23."

Levent Mercan provided the cross that allowed Duran to nod home in the 95th minute. Fenerbahce extended their unbeaten Super Lig run to 15 matches and remain a point behind Galatasaray. Fenerbahce registered 17 shots and an xG of 1.00 versus Galatasaray's six shots and an xG of 0.23, while Galatasaray have won only one of their last four league games.
