Super Lig Wrap: Fenerbahce extend run

Former Liverpool striker Dirk Kuyt scored the only goal of the game for Ersun Yanal’s men, who held on to take all three points, with Ozgur Ileri sent-off for the hosts.

Galatasaray remain mired in mid-table, and new manager Roberto Mancini will be hoping to gain momentum quickly after the defending champions limped to a 1-1 draw with second-placed Rizespor on Saturday.

Trabzonspor moved into the top four with a 2-0 home triumph over Konyaspor, defender Mustafa Yumlu netting twice to seal a third straight win for Mustafa Recit Akcay’s team.

Goals from Manuel da Costa and John Utaka put the visitors in command, before a strike from Ahmet Gork and a Tidiane Sane penalty levelled things up.

Elsewhere, Eskisehirspor won 2-0 at Kasimpasa, Kayseri Erciyesspor and Kayserispor played out a 1-1 draw, while Bursapor’s game with Akhisar Belediyespor ended goalless.
