Tuncay proves Southgate’s Turkish delight

GARETH SOUTHGATE has endured some troubled days since plunging into the world of management at the tender age of 36, but this is the kind of result which makes the hurt worthwhile.

Two goals from Turkish striker Tuncay Sanli extended Boro’s unbeaten Premier League run to four games and gave Southgate, in his own words, his best win since taking over two and a half years ago.

Tuncay capitalised on glaring errors from Nicky Shorey and Steve Sidwell to seal an away victory.
