The Turkish league's final day was today and it was a cracker. Beşiktaş have been top for ages but last weekend lost the derby against Galatasaray and then in midweek surprisingly at home to Karagumruk. That left them level on points with Galatasaray going into the final day with Fenerbahce 2 points further back. (must be years since the big 3 have been so far clear at the top with all of them in with a chance on the last day)
Anyway, all 3 won (only just in the case of Fenerbahce) and as Beşiktaş won 2-1 in İzmir against Goztepe and Galatasaray could only win 3-1 at home, Beşiktaş won the league with a goal difference of one better than Galatasaray.
(if you had to support one of the Istanbul 3,it should be Beşiktaş, so that's all good)
