Felix Afena-Gyan delivered a dramatic late moment on Monday night, scoring deep into stoppage time to propel Amedspor to a hard-fought victory over Vanspor in the TFF 1. League.
With the match seemingly heading for a stalemate, the Ghanaian striker rose to the occasion in the 94th minute, finishing off a decisive move that secured all three points for his side.
The late breakthrough not only sparked celebrations among the home faithful but also ensured Amedspor held on to third place as they intensify their pursuit of promotion to the Turkish top flight.
The stoppage-time heroics marked Afena-Gyan’s fourth goal since arriving at the club on loan from US Cremonese. His temporary switch to Turkey also includes an option that would allow Amedspor to make the transfer permanent at the end of the loan spell.

Still only 23, the forward is using the opportunity to rediscover rhythm and confidence after a challenging spell in Italy. His recent performances suggest a player gradually rediscovering his sharpness in front of goal.
Beyond club ambitions, Afena-Gyan also has international targets in mind. Consistent displays in Turkey could help him return to contention for the Ghana national football team as he eyes a potential place in the squad preparing for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
For now, his immediate impact continues to strengthen Amedspor’s promotion ambitions while reminding observers of the attacking threat that once made him one of Ghana’s most exciting young forwards.
