  "account": "Trabzonspor secured a decisive 4-0 victory over Galatasaray in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday, thanks to a hat-trick from Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian striker opened the scoring in the fourth minute, quickly putting his team ahead. Salah then set up Nuh Saviolo to double the advantage just before halftime in the 39th minute. Salah added another goal just before the break in the 44th minute, giving Trabzonspor a 3-0 halftime lead. The standout performance came in the 80th minute when Salah struck again, curling the ball into the bottom corner for his third goal of the match. Galatasaray's late dismissal, with Lesley Ugochukwu shown a red card in the 87th minute, did little to prevent Trabzonspor's resounding win. Ugochukwu was sent off after VAR reviewed his yellow card, making it a straight red. The result saw Trabzonspor climb to seventh in the Turkish Super Lig standings, while Salah extended his league tally to six goals this season for Trabzonspor. Despite the heavy defeat, Galatasaray remained atop the league table with 13 points after six matches.",
