ANKARA 

Turkey managed a 1-1 draw Friday against Norway in a 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifying group match in Istanbul.

Turkish winger Kerem Akturkoglu scored the opening goal in the sixth minute after his team’s pressure on Norway’s defense at Istanbul’s Ulker Stadium.

Akturkoglu was assisted by Cengiz Under.

But Norway leveled the score in the 41st minute as forward Kristian Thorstvedt finished in the far post.

Andreas Hanche-Olsen assisted Thorstvedt with a guiding header as Jens Petter Hauge crossed from the left after a short corner.

Following the draw in Istanbul, Turkey and Norway helped the Dutch team to the top spot.

Montenegro are now hot on Turkey’s trail with 11 points.

Latvia still have five points and are desperate for the upper spots in the group.

Gibraltar lost all seven matches and is at the bottom of Group G.

Teams will play three more matches before the group phase ends.

In the next fixture on Monday, the Netherlands will host group underdogs Gibraltar in Rotterdam.

On the same day, Turkey will visit Latvia in Riga, and Norway will play Montenegro in Oslo.
