A mass fight at the final whistle, in which three players were expelled, tainted an exciting football game. Fenerbahce then returned to tie two goals tied 2-2 at Galatasaray in the Istanbul derby.
Badou Ndiaye, of Galatasaray, on loan from Stoke, Roberto Saldado, striker from Fenerbahce, and Jailson, author of a tying goal, were sent off as a result of a fight between players and staff.
Ryan Donk gave the hosts a first-half lead thanks to a close-range effort, after Fenerbahce failed to manage a routine corner, while Sinan Gumus could not score the post shortly after.
Galatasaray finally doubled his lead after the restart, thanks to a superb curved shot from the back Martin Linnes, but the return of Fenerbahce began.

The referee needed the help of VAR to inflict a penalty on the visitors and Mathieu Valbuena converted to give hope to Fenerbahce in the week he had sacked the former Dutch international Phillip Cocu.
And their tying goal came when Valbuena put Jailson on the edge of the box – the Brazilian took a touch before throwing the ball into the top corner to stage a captivating finale.
Late chances were neglected at both ends of the field, as both clubs had to settle for part of the loot during a spectacular match that was marred by the post-match scrum.

The result gives Galatasaray the chance to return to the top of the table, while Fenerbahce stays in the bottom half.
SUBJECT OF DISCUSSION
Edwin Koeman, the spearhead of Fenerbahce? The first half was quite miserable from Fenerbahce's point of view, but the chart will be particularly impressed by the character that the players showed after the restart to save a much needed point – and the visitors may have even continued to seize the victory. Assistant coach Edwin Koeman, brother of Dutch coach Ronald, has been appointed interim, but will this impressive demonstration – against the club's fiercest rivals – be enough to win him a long-term contract?

49 – GOAL! Galatasaray 2-0 Fenerbahce: What a big strike! Fenerbahce fails to convincingly clear the resulting corner delivery. Linnes receives the ball on the edge of the box, he opens his body and places a nasty shot in the lower corner. Simply stunning.

He beat Galatasaray goalkeeper Muslera to take the lead, and with the gaping goal he placed the ball in the center, but Galatasaray managed to clear the ball. Wait, the referee looks VAR. Did Muslera catch Isla after the ball went off? Yes, the trouble is given!
