This was a golden second opportunity for Besiktas when league leader Sivasspor lost the away match, against Gaziantepspor, hours before The second place Besiktas took the pitch in Istanbul.
This could it been a huge morale booster for Mustafa Denizli's Besiktas side but,
Instead, there was better Fenerbahce team on the pitch, against Besiktas.
THE TOP STAY SAME!...
Although Sivasspor loss to Gaziantepspor and Besiktas going down to Fenerbahce with same score 2-1, the top in the Turkcell Super League has not change at the end of the 30th week.
Sivasspor has 60 and Besiktas 59 points...
The Third place team Trabzonspor is refreshing their thoughts about the league's top spot again...
After losing to Sivasspor last weekend their coach Ersun Yanal resigned and as a interim coach from the farm team of the club Ahmet Ozen will fill this coaching duties until end of the season..
Let me say it again......
I still don get it why Ersun Yanal left this team?...
This brings a huge question about him...
Is he quitter or choker?......
I think, He is quitter!....
He did the same thing with Vestel Manisaspor.....
Any way getting back to the race on top,
I think, last four weeks in the league,will spell a lot of surprise scores, in my opinion.
Four weeks to go in the league, we don't know, who will be the Champions of Turkish league and we don't know the third team, who will bite the dust, in the league just yet!....
After Kocaelispor losing to Konyaspor on Sunday ,they are done in the Turkcell Super League, as I predicted!...
Kocaelispor and Hacettepe will go down for sure now...
On this matter from theh first division of Turkish League , Vestel Manisaspor and Diyarbakirspor earned a spot to play in the Turkish Turkcell Super League in the next season. The third team will be known after the play -off matches.
Here are the results from Sunday....
Ankaragucu 1- 0 Ankaraspor
Antalyaspor 2-3 Bursaspor
Buyuksehir 3-1 Genclerbirligi
Denizlispor 3-2 Eskisehirspor
Gaziantepspor 3-2 Sivasspor
Konyaspor 2-2 Kocaelispor
Besiktas 1- 2 Fenerbahce

Blackburn Rovers Honor Tugay Kerimoglu !
Veteran Blackburn playmaker and former Galatasaray and Turkish National team player Tugay Kerimoglu will leave Ewood Park at the end of the season, according to manager Sam Allardyce.
It will bring the curtain down on the 38-year-old's career at the club, spanning eight seasons, after he arrived from Rangers for £1.3million.
Allardyce said: "We will say farewell at the end of the season and thank you very much for what you have done for Blackburn."
He added: "Certainly if we remain in the Premier League, Tugay can bow out gracefully after playing at the top level most of the time.
"He has had a fantastic career. But at 38 and the ever-increasing demands of the Premier League, certainly in a physical sense, it means you cannot go on forever."
NO COACHING JOB FOR HIM!...
According to reports Blackburn Rovers legend Tugay Kerimoglu won't be offered a coaching role when he retires this summer.
With many touting the Tugay for a role behind the scenes Big Sam says that won't happen yet, "he's not qualified to coach, if he goes away and does his coaching badges then I'm sure he'll always have an eye on coming back to Blackburn at some stage."
Blackburn Rovers manager Sam Allardyce paid tribute to midfielder Tugay Kerimoglu on Friday,on clubs web site saying "
"It has drawn to a very good end, certainly if we stay in the Premier League, and he has made a big contribution to helping us."
Tugay Kerimoglu made 200 appearances for the Blackburn Rovers.
