John Boye stars as Sivas moves out of bottom two

Turkey-based Ghana international John Boye continued his form in the relegation battle with another impressive outing in a 2-2 thriller at Basakeshir.

The commanding centre-back screened his goalkeeper with precision before a late collapse cost them that vital win on the road.

The scoring defender continues to lead by example for the beleaguered Sivaspor with four goals in his 22 outings for the relegation engulfed side.

Turkish forward Simsek gave Sivaspor a 0-2 lead away to Basakeshir but persistent pressure from the host forced a point on the death.

John Boye and his Sivas teammates temporarily moved out of the bottom two with 25 points from 30 games and four more to end the season.

The Ghanaian is, however, a subject of many interested domestic rivals for his robust and energetic display at the back despite his team’s wobbling form in the Turkish Super League.
