Farouk Miya outshines Demba Ba with brace as Konyaspor stun Istanbul Basaksehir

Farouk Miya outshone Demba Ba’s lone strike with his brace as Konyaspor defeated Istanbul Basaksehir 4-3 on Monday.

The result at the Konya Buyuksehir Belediye Stadium delayed Istanbul Basaksehir's title party even though second-placed Trabzonspor bowed to Denizlispor in another league game while Konyaspor stayed clear of the relegation zone, having accrued 33 points from 32 matches.

Miya equalised for Konyaspor in the 20th minute after Edin Visca opened the scoring for the visitors three minutes into the encounter.

Eight minutes after, Omer Sahiner fired the Anatolian Eagle ahead before Miya grabbed his second goal of the night to make it 3-1 in first-half stoppage time.
