Ten man Besiktas team just could not pass Bursaspor on Sunday night in Istanbul.
The scene was all there, with their 12th man , who did not stop chanting, until last minutes of th match.
In the last game of the week 28 in Turkish Turkcell Super League, Besiktas was hopeful of taking over the lead position. After all, Sivasspor, had lost 2 points on Saturday.
Besiktas was troubled by the dismissal of Ibrahim Toraman. With their defensive star red carded, Besiktas had to play the second half with 10 players.
The scoreless draw kept Besiktas at the second position.
GALATASARAY ON THE MOVE!
Well, although they won the match againstIstanbul B.B, with one goal, Galatasaray did not play good football!..
But, Galatasaray had their hopes of a championship title is on the line again by a 1-0 victory against İstanbul BB. Galatasaray's only goal came at 66th minute when Nonda passed the ball to Milan Baros who was left all along by him self in the far corner,did the easy thing, score the Galatasaray's only goal.
Galatasaray player,Lincoln, played full ninety minutes of this match.
Also on Sunday ,Denizlispor beat Kocaelispor 2-1 and pretty much killed Kocaelispor's hope to stay in the league.
Antalyaspor after beating league's though team Kayserispor at home 2-1 , took a deep breath.....
Ankaragucu after winning against Eskisehirspor 3-2. still fighting for their life in the league .
League's last place team draw Gaziantep in Gaziantep, 0-0.
So, At the end of the 28th week, in the Turkish Super League, we know two things, for sure.
Kocaelispor and Hacettepe will go down to lower division......
And we know, Fenerbahce team who was in the quarter finals of the Champions League last year, will not be in the race, for the Turkish Championship, this season!
Those are pretty much facts, now....
What is unknown, is, who will be the third team,that will bite the dust, in the league.
Is it going to be, Ankaragucu,Istanbul B.B,Konyaspor,Denizlispor or Genclerbirligi!..
And finally, after both of the top team losing points this weekend, it is very difficult to say who will be the Champions of Turkey this season..
We know one thing , Sivasspor on top 57 points and Besiktas is breading on their shoulder with 56 points on second place.
After Trabzon winning this weekend , they are only 4 points behind Sivasspor and 3 points away from Besiktas.
And Hopeful Galatasaray, is on fourth with 51 points...
Although, Galatasaray, might seem a far away from top but, they still have games against Sivasspor and Trabzonspor.
So, If Galatasaray shapes up, and The rookie coach Bulent Korkmaz, start thinking like a champion coach, they might have a sure shot at the top!.....
Lastly, next two weekends will be very crutual for Turkish Super League Leader Sivasspor.
This weekend They will face Trabzonspor at their home field and following weekend they will travel to Gaziantepspor .
And let's not the last match of the season against Galatasaray in Istanbul.
So, Sivasspor will face some hurdles, on the way!...

Could Besiktas Capture The Top Spot In Turkish Super League?.
After Sivasspor was held by Konyaspor in Konya to a scoreless draw , Besiktas has a chance to capture the Turkish Turkcell Super League top spot if they win against Bursaspor on Sunday night in Istanbul.
Turkcell Super League 28th week started with Trabzonspor against Genclerbirlgi on Friday and Tranbzonspor after beating Genclerbirligi with two unanswered goals.
With this win Trabzonspor stayed in the race for the top spot.
SATURDAY WRAP:
There was only two matches on Saturday in The Turkish Turkcell Super League.
In the early match in Konya, League Leader Sivasspor had a Konya obstacle in their plate and they knew that!..
Because, Konyaspor was desperate for points to get out of the danger zone of the league.
And They respected the Konyaspor coach Giray Bulak, they new he would have his team ready against them.
In the ninety minutes of the they were some hits and misses on both goals...
Sivasspor's two shots came of the wood works...
Konyaspor also had a lot of chance in the second half but could not cash in.
At the end both of the teams were not happy with results.
Konysaspor wanted a three points to reach 33 point mark . On the other hand Sivasspor
lost momentum from their bid to Turkish Championship, in my opinion.
Ever since Sivasspor Benched Balili, Sivaspor is not the Sivasspor we watched in the first half of the season.
I think , Balili and Mehmet Yildiz, up front, clicked more better in my opinion.
If Sivaspor keeps losing point like this they might even end up losing the second place .
This should be a wake up call for Sivasspor.
Because, at the end of this weekend , they might lose the topp spot to Besiktas than
they still have to face Trabzonspor and Galatasaray yet, in the League.
That is why , crucial weeks start for Sivasspor after this weekend
WHAT IS HAPPENING TO FENERBAHCE?....
This is the question that every Fenerbahce fans are asking them self's..
What Happened to the team that played in last year's quarter final, in the UEFA Champions League!
Well, Fenerbahce on Saturday in Ankara, went down again one more time.
This time against Ankaraspor .
The former Fenerbahce legend player Aykut Kocaman, who coaches Ankaraspor, beat his former team.
Fenerbahce was missing Alex, Semih, Edu, Lugano and goalkeeper Volkan.
This was the must win match for Fenerbahce in order to continue its chance to catch up the other teams on top.
Fenerbahce is nine points behind the current leader Sivasspor with 48 points.
If Fenerbahce does not win their all six reaming matches in The league ,they could well be left out of European competition next season.
That would be a disaster for Fenerbahce Fans...
I Think, Fenerbahce President made a huge mistake when he let go Brazilian great Zico, after he took Fenerbahce to Champions League quarter finals.
This is a perfect sample about Turkish Football in general!..
Constancy, is the big problem with Turkish Football...
We could say this, about Turkish National Team and Fatih Terim...
We could say this, about Galatasaray team who won the UEFA cup...
And now, we could say this about Fenerbahce.......
SUNDAY SHOW DOWN ..................
The match of the week will be between Besiktas nad Bursaspor in Istanbul, in my opinion.
After watching , Sivasspor losing points, Besiktas will be more focused in this match.
But, Bursaspor is not easy team to beat, though!
As a matter of fact,they are coached by Former Besiktas coach Ertugrul Saglam, who earlier in the season coached Besiktas.
He knows the Besiktas team well....
But,I am sure Besiktas coach will have a couple of his tricks against Bursaspor as well.
A win, will fly Besiktas, to first place but, a draw won't!...
Also on Sundays, there are many games that will effect the bottom of the barrel.
The teams are feeling the heat will play against the team who are in relegation zone.
Denizlispor who has 29 points will be against the team who has 23 points Kocaelispor.
Eskisehirspor will play against Ankaragucu ......
Ankaragucu has 27 points and Eskisehirspor has 33.
The team with 32 points Antalyaspor will be at home against the team is chasing Bursaspor, Kayserispor.
Istanbul B.B who is also feeling the heat with 30 points will face Galatasaray.
This is a must match for both team.
If Galatasaray wants to remain in the chase , they have to win
On the other hand , it is a must win match for Istanbul B.B, if they don't want to face the relegation.
Lastly, the team who is in the comfort zone, Gaziantepspor, will face the helpless, last place team Hacettepe, who is definite will go down at the end of the season.

OBAMA THE SOCCER PLAYER!...
Did you know Obama played soccer when he was kid?...
You might heard that he was Basketball fan but, United States President has a big passion for Soccer, known in the world, as football...
In the recent New York Times soccer columnist George Vecsey article, Obama talked about his child days when he played soccer on dirt street in Jakarta.
OBAMA ENDORSING WORLD CUP GAMES......
Any way, Obama is now endorsing the United states to get 2018 or 2022 World Cup games.
“Soccer is truly the world’s sport, and the World Cup promotes camaraderie and friendly competition across the globe,” Obama added in the letter, a part of which was released to The New York Times by the United States Soccer Federation with permission from the White House.
“That is why this bid is about much more than a game,” he added. “It is about the United States of America inviting the world to gather all across our great country in celebration of our common hopes and dreams.”
The president is hoping to influence FIFA when the decision for 2018 and 2022 is made in December 2010, five months after the next World Cup in South Africa. FIFA has also committed to Brazil in 2014, meaning that two consecutive World Cups could be held without vast modern infrastructure. Theoretically, this would make FIFA more interested in creature comforts and money in 2018 and 2022.
“The support of the president, who is extraordinarily popular around the world, is a huge plus,” Sunil Gulati, the president of the United States federation, said on Monday.
FIFA knows the United States ran a terrific party in 1994, setting an overall attendance record that has endured. Now the highly popular American president has proposed throwing another party. A claret-and-blue scarf would look great on him.

AP:Brawl breaks out in Turkish league game between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce
Brawl breaks out in Turkish league game between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Players from Istanbul's two biggest teams, Galatasary and Fenerbahce, fought each other Sunday in the final minutes of a tense derby match that ended in a 0-0 draw.
Games between archrivals Galatasaray and Fenerbahce are usually tense, but on Sunday both sides needed to win in order to remain in the race for Turkey's Superleague title.
With just minutes left in the game, Fenerbahce's Diego Lugano headbutted Galatasaray's Emre Asik from behind, touching off a fracas that involved most players on the field.
Four players -two from each team - were red-carded for their involvement in the fighting.
The two sides' fans were also in combative mood, dismantling seats and trying to hurl them at each other.

Kaos In Derby Match In Turkey!
Let me just say this—I am very disappointed with what I witnessed today.
Here on this Blog and my web site and my regular column on Bleacher Report, I always enjoyed writing about Turkish Football .
Until tonight.
What I saw was an unsportsmanlike act by both team players in this match.
There was no goal and no football on the field during the full ninety minutes.
But, at the injury time there was a head butt by Fenerbahce player Diego Lugano to Galatasaray player Emre Asik that started a brawl.
Everyone got involved!
Arda Turan got in a fight with his national teammate Semih Senturk and they punched each other.
After the brawl, the referee showed four red cards.
Lugano and Semih from Fenerbahce and Arda and Emre Asik from Galatasaray.
With this score, Galatasaray and Fenerbahce are pretty much out of the top race in the Turkcell Super League in Turkey.
Both sides needed to win in order to remain in the race for Turkey's Super league title.
Lastly, the players who are very young and candidates to be stars shocked me today.
The way they behaved on the field and after the match with their comments was stunning.
After tonight's match, every one in Turkish Football has to look in the mirror one more time.
This should start with the Turkish Football Federation and Turkish National team coach and should go down to team officials.
Again, There should be really harsh punishments for this kind of behavior on the field.
If Turkish Football Federation is not quick to announce the punishments, it will be a disaster for the league and Turkish Football.
