ELAZIĞ (Interstat) — Elazığspor scored five unanswered goals Saturday to beat Aliaga in a Kadinlar 2. Ligi football match at Elazığ Atatürk Stadyumu. The home side controlled the contest from the opening minutes and never allowed the visitors to settle, producing a decisive performance in Elazığ. Mert Örnek scored twice in the first half, Kemal Rüzgar added another before the break, and Veli Çetin and Baris Ekincier completed the scoring after halftime. The result lifted Elazığspor to 3 wins and 0 losses in the competition and across all competitions, while Aliaga dropped to 2 wins and 1 loss in the competition and across all competitions.

Elazığspor needed less than a quarter-hour to take the lead. Mert Örnek struck in the 12th minute, finishing a move that had already stretched the Aliaga defense. Seven minutes later, Örnek scored again in the 19th minute, giving the home side a two-goal advantage and forcing Aliaga to chase the game. Aliaga tried to respond through quick transitions, but Elazığspor kept compact lines and won the ball back in midfield. Feyyaz Belen of Elazığspor received a yellow card in the 33rd minute, the only caution of the match. The booking did little to disrupt the home team’s rhythm.

Kemal Rüzgar made it three goals to none in the 35th minute, capping a first half in which Elazığspor created the clearer chances. Aliaga’s best moments came before the interval, but the visiting side could not find a finishing touch. Elazığspor’s back line limited space behind the defense, and Aliaga’s attempts to play through the middle were repeatedly turned away. The halftime break gave Aliaga a chance to reorganize, yet Elazığspor resumed with the same pressure and purpose after the restart.

Veli Çetin, a defender who played the full 90 minutes, scored in the 53rd minute. His goal gave Elazığspor a four-goal cushion and effectively removed any doubt about the outcome. Çetin’s contribution stood out because he combined defensive work with a rare goal from the back. Baris Ekincier, a midfielder who entered as a substitute and played 12 minutes, scored in the second minute of stoppage time. That final goal completed the scoring and capped a dominant team performance. Elazığspor finished with five goals and kept Aliaga scoreless.

Aliaga entered the match after two wins. Aliaga had won both of its previous league matches. The visitors had beaten Isparta 32 by 2-0 on Sunday, Sept. 13, and had won at Arnavutköy by 4-1 on Sunday, Sept. 6. Those results had given Aliaga momentum, but the trip to Elazığ proved far more difficult. Elazığspor arrived after a 2-0 win at Adana DS on Saturday, Sept. 12, and a 3-1 home win over Sebat on Sunday, Sept. 6. The home side extended that run with a performance that was efficient in front of goal and disciplined without the ball.

The competition result left Elazığspor with a perfect record and Aliaga with one defeat. Elazığspor’s attack spread the goals across four scorers, while the defense delivered a clean sheet. Aliaga had scored in each of its previous two matches, but this was the first time this season it was held without a goal. Elazığspor has now scored multiple goals in every match this season. The match was organized by the Kadinlar 2. Ligi in Turkiye. Elazığspor’s victory was its third in as many matches in the league and across all competitions. Aliaga’s record moved to two wins and one loss in the league and across all competitions.
