FENERBAHCE STALL AGAIN!... BESIKTAS WIN!..........
This was the match that Fenerbahce could it closed the gap on top.
But, after another draw at home back to back they have lost big grounds in the catching up game!..
Fenerbahce was held by Gazinatepsor on Sunday and almost loss the match, thanks to Alex's late goal.
Gaziantepspor were close to winning this game as Erman Ozgur put the Gaziantep team ahead with just eight minutes left in regular time.
Fenerbahce title hopes is little bit dented by a rather disappointing 1-1 draw with Gaziantepspor in Istanbul.
LUCKY BESIKTAS!.......
Besiktas was lucky again this weekend. They say some times teams and keepers best friends are the wood works!...... that was the case on sunday night in Inounu stadium!....
In the early minutes of the match Antalyaspor striker's shot hit the post and went out!...
But, Besiktas won the match with Tello's beituful goal.
Again, Mustafa Denizli kept Holosko on the bench and gave him a chance in the second half of the match. I think, Holosko should start for Besiktas .......................
In the other matches on Sunday, Eskishehirspor trashed Istanbul B.B 6-1 at home and Konyaspor won their must win match in Ankara against Ankaragucu 3-1 .
In Bursa, Bursaspor tied with leagues last place team Hacettepe with no goals!...
As we close the 18th week , in the Turkish Turkcell Super League, The race on top an the bottom is getting congested!.....
With a a draw games, you will not reach for your goals in this league!....
Bursaspor 0 - 0 Hacettepe
Eskisehirspor 6 - 1 İstanbul BB
MKE Ankaragucu 1 - 3 Konyaspor
Fenerbahce 1- 1 Gaziantepspor
Besiktas 1- 0 Antalyaspor

IT IS CATCH UP TIME IN THE TURKCELL SUPER LEAGUE!
Just when every one thought ,Sivasspor was going to stay on top all by him self, guest what happened on Saturday in Adana, Turkey!...
The team who plays home games in Adana, Kayserispor stopped , Sivasspor for a nil nil a tie match .
On the other hand, Trabzonspor in away match won their match and catch up Sivasspor, on top again.
They now share the leagues top spot with 38 points.
The important moment of the match between Kayserispor and Sivasspor came in the 89nth minute when both Furkan Ozcal of the home side and Fabio Bilica of the guests were sent off.
Trabzonspor scored against Ankaraspor,in the ninth minute of the match, with Gokhan Unal .
The second and final goal came from Umut Bulut on 74 minutes.
As such, Trabzonspor are back in shared first place as both they and Sivasspor have 38 points from 18 matches.
GALATASARAY ON THE MOVE TOO!....
Galatasaray beat Denizlispor 0-2 with goals from Milan Baros and Shabani Nonda and remain at two points behind of Trabzonspor and Sivaspor.
LOOKING AHEAD !....
On Sunday., it could well be catch up time for Besiktas and Fenerbahce too.
If Fenerbahce wins on Sunday against Gaziantepspor at home they could catch up Galatasaray and be only two points away from the top spot. But, Gaziantespor is no easy roller team.
During the winter transfer season they got quality of players signed. the Brazilian famous player Julio Cesar Santos Carrea will play against his former team player Roberto Carlos in this match. I am going too get up early in the United Stated and watch this match.
It will be a good match....
Also, Besiktas with a win against Antalyaspor the team they beat in the Fortis Turkish Cup, could move on top of Ankaraspor and move to fifth place with 34 points and only four points behind the leader of the league.
Catching up is also at the bottom level teams too...
Ankaragucu, the who will host Konyaspor at home could well pass Konyaspor in the standings if they win the match.
Ankaragucu just signed former Ankaraspor player and Mexican international Player Antoniode Nigris,
earlier in the week and could well do a damage to Konyaspor in this match.
But,Konyaspor in the last days of the Transfer days, just signed Roman Kratochvil, from Denizilispor,
With this transfer Konyaspor has gain big confidence on the defense in my opinion.
If Konyaspor lose this match it could be disaster for Konyaspor they will be a new candidate for relegation's........
So, the week 18nth, in the Turkish Turkcell Super league will be remembered as a catching up week, in my opinion.
Catchers will smile this weekend!......................

FORTIS TURKEY CUP WRAP UP
Besiktas close to semifinals
Well, The first leg matches in the Fortis Turkish Cup matches are all done...
We know, Besiktas looks like allready got a ticket to Semi-Final in the Fortis Turkish CUp after beating Antalysspor in away match in Antalya with two clear goals.
It was the fourth win in four games for Besiktas since the start of this season. Remembering that his side will meet Antalya in the League this weekend, coach Mustafa Denizli said that he wanted his players to continue their streak. "I hope that this does not cause complacency," he said.
On the other hand, Fenerbahce also won in the quarterfinals. A 43rd minute header by Deivid De Souza won the game for Fener, giving the Yellow Canaries an edge before next week’s return game against Bursaspor.
"The final score is not a good result, but not bad at all, given that we still have hopes for the second game," said Bursaspor coach Ertuğrul Sağlam. "We have the power and quality to get the ticket to the semifinals in the return game in Bursa."
On Tuesday, Turkish Giant galatasaray had a another bad spell against Sivasspor ,this time in the Fortis cup match. They almost loss the match again in their home turf, thanks to last minute goal by team captain Ayhan Akman,they drew Sivasspor at home with 1-1 score.
This is why , we just can't say Galatasaray would go to next round in the Fortis Cup yet!...
It will be very tough second leg match in sivas!....
Also on Tuesday, Denizlispor loss a big advantage after a tie against Ankaraspor 1-1.
The cup’s second leg matches will be played on next Wednesday.
