Haji Wright at Antalyaspor all games PBP

great first touch from wright to get it on his right and good shot deflected from just outside the box.

 

some poor touches and lucky not to get a yellow.

 

looks like he's going to go 90. game has slowed down quite a bit still 0-0 in the 81st.

 

well wright is getting his chances, shot deflected wins a corner than his header goes awry off the corner for a goal kick.

 

haji too selfish, his cross is way wide and too late after dribbling on the left of the box.

 

these teams are gassed.

 

great finish by the galatarary sub and they go ahead 1-0 in the last minute of regular time.

 

Haji with a 1st half brace. Kid is making his claim to start for the USA in a few months.

 

I turn on the game, and one minute later - HAJI GOAL - heads home in the 58th minute. Cuts their deficit to 2-1 against Alanyaspor.

VAR check. Haji was onside, so I'm not sure what the challenge was about.

 

Antalyaspor with two great goal line clearances in a crazy sequence after a set piece.

Unfortunately, they needed three clearances - 3-1 against Haji and the boys.

 

HAJI BRACE! Brilliant through ball breaks the trap 40 yards out. Haji outruns the defender, takes a touch to tee himself up, and blasts coolly into the lower corner. Brilliant. Still down 3-2.

 

Full time and they lose. Possible MOTM award to a guy on the losing team? He'll get great ratings for two great finishes.

 

Is it too late for him to make the world cup squad?

 

Haji scores again. On purpose. Cross from wide left bounces behind the defense, and Haji barely gets to it lunging forward, with enough contact to put it inside the post.

 

Haji charging into the box, knocked down from behind, no call.

Then a minute later, Antalyaspor score what looked like a second but called back for a very close offside.

 

Haji close to a very nice play, behind the defense on the right, cuts aggressively toward the penalty spot, gets off a shot but blocked. Incorrectly ruled offside but doesn't really matter.

 

Batshuayi equalizes - King's header goes off the post right to him five yards out with an open goal. No mistake from there. 1-1.

 

Haji drawn yellow with hold up play in the center circle. Yellow on Szalai.

 

VAR gives Fenerbahce a delayed penalty and Batshuayi makes it. 2-1 Fenerbahce.

 

Haji at the top of the box pops the ball over a defender and makes what would have been a slick square ball across the top of the box, but a defender got a foot to it on the way.

 

Cross from wide right hits Haji making the far post run - blasts a header off the crossbar, and injures Osayi-Samuel going through him in the effort to get to the ball.

 

Wins flick on header trying to put Bayrakdar in alone on goal, but last defender gets a touch on it.

 

Haji two straight won flicked headers, one of which leads to a 20 yard volleyed shot wide. Shooter was probably offside anyway.

 

Incredible long half volley by Fernando to equalize called offside for reasons I don't understand. looks to have been a mistake.

 

TV shows Wright in an offside position three passes earlier ... but he never touches the ball or influences play. Help me out - I think they got screwed here.
