Göztepe, a club from the second Turkish league, entered the new year in the best possible way—with a victory. And this was also thanks to a player from Slovenia. David Tijanić, who was a part of the Slovenian national team some time ago, scored the first goal for his club in the year 2024. Göztepe played as guests against Sakaryaspor and won 2-1. The home goalkeeper, Cihan Topaloglu, conceded for the first time in the eighth minute, beaten by David Tijanić.
26-year-old David Tijanić played 16 matches for his Turkish club in the 2023/24 season, scoring four times. This makes him the second-highest scorer for Göztepe, with only his Nigerian teammate, Kenneth Obinna Mamah, scoring more goals.
David Tijanić played until the 76th minute this time and was even the highest-rated player for his team on the SofaScore website. He concluded the match with a rating of 8! It’s worth noting that Slovenian veteran Rajko Rotman played for the home team until the 73rd minute and was among the better performers.
Göztepe is currently in second place in the standings of the second Turkish league, with the leader Eyüpspor having a seven-point advantage. Svit Sešlar and teammates defeated Erzurumspor 3-0 at home this time, and the former star of Olimpija entered the game only in the 90th minute.
