Gençlerbirliği made a dream start when Ülgün opened the scoring in the first minute, finishing off a move created by Franco Tongya to give the hosts an early advantage.

In the 59th minute, the playmaker picked out Tongya with a well-timed pass, allowing the forward to double Gençlerbirliği’s lead. Traoré was at it again in the 66th minute, setting up Tiago Gouveia to make it 3-0 and further extend the hosts’ advantage.
The two assists proved decisive in breaking Alanyaspor’s resistance, with Gençlerbirliği capitalising on their attacking momentum to add two more goals.
Pedro Mendes scored the fourth in the 68th minute, with Tongya providing the assist, before Gouveia completed his brace in the 78th minute to seal a memorable 5-0 triumph.
Traoré’s vision and ability to create opportunities in transition stood out in a performance that underlined his importance to Gençlerbirliği’s attacking play.
The convincing victory gives Gençlerbirliği a significant boost in their Süper Lig campaign, while Traoré will take confidence from his influential display as he continues to contribute to the team’s attacking ambitions.
