Football: Başakşehir beat Fenerbahçe, Beşiktaş win

Medipol Basaksehir managed to defeat Fenerbahce at last breath at Sukru Saracoglu Stadium on Saturday evening with a 3-2 score.

The match, in which two Istanbul clubs squared off for a Turkish 'Spor Toto Super Lig' showdown, started greatly for Basaksehir, as they go up 1-0 in just the second minute.

Thanks to header by Joseph Attamah, crossed by Emre Belozoglu from the corner kick spot, Basaksehir looked unfazed from Fenerbahce crowd.

The visiting club increased the margin to two in the 33rd minute, when striker Emmanuel Adebayor netted in a powerful header.

Fenerbahce managed to pull one back in the 44th minute, when new signing Nabil Dirar's low-driven shot found its way to Basaksehir goal.

The home team equalized the score in the second half, defender Martin Skrtel's deflected header went inside in the 78th minute, giving Fenerbahce hope to complete a comeback.

But Kerim Frei's curved missile in the 94th minute crushed Fenerbahce's dreams and left the home team without a point.

Basaksehir, who finished the league at second spot last season, managed to continue their recent winning ways with the victory and increased their points total to 9 after four matches.

Fenerbahce, on the other hand, made one of the worst starts to the league in their history, only accumulating five points so far.
