Defeats for Besiktas and Fenerbahce saw Galatasaray go top of the Turkish Super Lig with a win over Sivasspor.
Galatasaray went top of the Turkish Super Lig this weekend as both Besiktas and Fenerbahce slipped up with defeats.
Hamza Hamzaoglu’s men teed up the rest of the weekend’s action at the top of the table by battling to a 3-2 win at Sivasspor on Saturday.
That victory put Gala a point clear of Besiktas at the summit, but Slaven Bilic’s side, who travelled to Liverpool for the first leg of their UEFA Europa League last-32 tie on Thursday – fell to a 1-0 defeat at Eskishirspor.
Kaan Kanak handed the hosts an early lead, and Besiktas – without the influential Demba Ba through injury – were unable to find a way back.
