It was really interesting that the derby match between the two top teams played to draw because both of them were almost equal in strength.
I saw from the start that both of them played with tendency to defend longer or you could say they were more careful and prioritized really very strong defense.
There were only few attempts at attack from both team and from direct shots towards goal there was only one chance, and that was also owned by Galatasaray.
There were 7 yellow cards given by the referee to both teams and Galatasaray committed more violations with 4 yellow cards.
For now, the points for both teams remain the same, namely 44 points and the competition will continue for longer in the future.

Galatasaray and Fenerbahce will meet again in the Turkish Super Cup, this is the final match and we will again see the strength of the two team competing in the fight for victory and the title.
It looks like Galatasaray will learn from yesterday draw and have big chance of winning in this final match.

To be honest, I'm like watching a match in the local league somehow this match is very boring and far from expectations usually we always see a lot of goals but not for this time even Fenerbahce without shots on target, we are motivated when watching Galatasaray play in the champions league and hope they do the same in this match unfortunately that didn't happen. My bet on both teams to score lose even though previously I was very sure this bet would win, I feel trapped damn. I would place the same bet on the final Turkish Super Cup I believe the situation is different because this is an important and decisive match which will be played next December 30.

Both teams not only have the same points but also has a player who is the top scorer with 12 goals Edin Dzeko 12 goals Fenerbahce and Mauro Icardi 12 goals Galatasaray, is this just a coincidence? why everything seems organized and determined. Sometimes things like this are hard to understand and some things cannot be seen or proven but it's good to monitor.

The derby match played tonight was very boring really. Because of Galatasaray's playing away it was normal to see them lowering the tempo. However the league leader Fenerbahçe who played at home didn't have a shot on target during the match and this must worry them for the future. These two teams are going to come face to face for the Super Cup this time nearly 5 days later. Because Fred who is the brain of the Fenerbahçe midfield is going to be able to play in this match I expect Fenerbahçe to be a little more aggressive.

It was quite expected to be boring to be fair. Fenerbahce was missing Fred and their defender, so they didn't want to be too forward, and Galatasaray was playing an away game so they didn't want to be too forward neither. Honestly, it makes sense that they were all boring because not being boring didn't really rewarded as much as you risked. I think it should be important to focus on the fact that you are going to end up risking losing 3 points, and instead getting that just one point feels like a better deal to be fair. I understand that some fans wanted some action, like a draw but with a result of 3-3 would have been more fun, same draw, same 1 points, but at least some fun. But that is illogical for teams as a tactic to go out and try to score that much.

Serdar Topraktepe will be the head of the team in the Hatayspor match. I wonder how the youth coach will manage the team. Non-squad players were not included in the squad again. Gedson returned from injury and entered the squad. Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain, Necip Uysal, Umut Meraş and Emrecan Uzunhan are still injured. The indifference in the team needs to end now. Players need to remember which jersey they are wearing and play accordingly. There is a Beşiktaş that haven't won 3 matches in a row in the league and it must not be 4 matches. Everyone should come to their senses. The betting odds are high for Beşiktaş, and if we take this match as a turning point, the high odds can be considered as an opportunity.

Another very boring İstanbul derby that ended 0-0. The teams couldn't even make a shot this time. I don't understand why they are so afraid of each other. They think that getting 1 point is enough. Fenerbahçe doesn't even have an accurate shot. Galatasaray had only one shot on target. It would be okay if the goalkeepers didn't play. Today, the whole of Türkiye saw how empty both teams were. And they were playing to become champions and they thought they were high, but their bubble burst.
After so many talks in the build up to the Istanbul derby  between the two most consistent teams in the Turkish Super Lig,  the result and performance of both teams in the game I can say were absolutely  poor.  A lot was said before the game which attracted the attention of many fans who wanted  to see a very  good game that'll produce goals, exciting and nervous moments but were disappointed to see a goalless  draw in that match.
With that result, fenerbahçe and Galatasaray still occupy the first and second spots respectively in the Turkish league table with the same number of points but are just separated by goal difference. The fight for who wins the league  still continues and hopefully it's gonna go down to the wire.

I can honestly say that I was bored watching the match until the end.It was a very unpleasant derby.I should have thought that this match would actually end with this score because both sides were tense and whoever scored would change things.We can say that this draw was a score that favored Galatasaray more than Fenerbahçe.At least they did not lose away in such a match.1 In a week's time there will be a cup match in Saudi Arabia and we might see a different football from both teams.Fred's absence was felt again in Fenerbahce and Ismail Kartal was obviously very ineffective.

In the second half of the match, Galatasaray players slowed down the tempo of the match. Fenerbahçe played a better game in the second half. I think Fenerbahçe deserved to win by one click more. But there were two good teams on the pitch and the match ended in a draw. The match was a tactical struggle from the beginning to the end. Okan Buruk and İsmail Kartal played this match like a chess match. Such matches are always a bit boring.

Are we sure we're watching the same game?
I didn't see a tactical battle. Both teams played horribly haphazardly. It wasn't even soccer, it was a boxing ring. There were 47 fouls in the match and you're talking about a tactical battle. 47 fouls in the game, what tactics did you talk about if you mean tactics to slow the game down and pass the time. Boey and Nellson should have been red carded, but the referee tolerated the Galatasaray players too much.

We watched a very bad derby, I did not enjoy it at all, there was no excitement in the game.
Not much can be said about this game. I hope the next game will be good and we will enjoy it. See you on Friday.

The derby first half of the match was spent entirely with both teams trying to prevent each other from playing properly. Fenerbahçe was the team that retreated completely to defense, and although Galatasaray had more ball, İsmail Kartal only had his players defend in the first half. There were already quite a lot of fouls committed throughout the match, around 45 in the last one.

Kerem Demirbay had an important position in Galatasaray in the second half, there was no important position other than that, I was expecting such a mutual game, maybe the second half could have been more active than it was.

yesterday's games didn't have any big surprises, galatasaray who played against fenerbahce got a draw which thus keeps everything as it was before the game started in relation to the position of the two teams in the table, it would have been bad for galatasaray if they had lost in that one game, in the same way that it would have been terrible for Fenerbahce if they had lost in this game. Both teams have the same points in the table and the competition between these two teams is very high to the point that even playing between them none of them will come out with a defeat. I see that what will decide the champion will be the first team that makes the mistake of losing in a game.

Kayserispor suffered their second defeat, with a good chance of being able to win in that game because the opponent is in a position far below them in the table, but in the last 4 games they only had 1 defeat, so they weren't such a weak opponent, but I saw that At least Kayserispor could win, but what happened on the field was that Kayserispor lost, conceded 2 goals and failed to score. with this result Kayserispor continues in the top positions, but it won't take many rounds for Adana to take position number 3 or 4 and Kayserispor to stay in positions below 5. they have been declining a lot, and speaking of Adana, they won and with this victory managed to get very close to the most important positions in the table

I wish I didn't watch this derby game. Because it was just so boring from the start to the end. I hoped to see a more attacking game by Galatasaray but Okan Buruk didn't think the same as me for this game. We were playing in a very controlled way and this was making our game really boring to watch.  Sad

I can still understand the purpose behind doing this of course as even one point was going to be just fine for us. However the part that I was surprised of was Fenerbahce's performance. They didn't seem like they really wanted to win this game. Galatasaray had even more goal attempts than them for a long while. This really helped us a lot. By the way Szymanski's shot was really dangerous and thankfully he wasted the goal chance.  Smiley
Yeah, I am also feeling this was one of the most boring derbies I have with we have only 7 yellow card 8 corners and just one shot on target by Galatasaray which is really not ideal performance from these both champions teams here in this league and I also feel Galatasaray was better team and deserve better result, but Fenerbahçe was also well aware of these all so they never give them any opportunity to have full three points and create problems for them in coming weeks at the league table now we are having two weeks vacations which will give them some chance to think about their performance and bring improvement for the better things in the future.

Okan Buruk's strategy allow him with just one point which is also enough for them because right now they are not in situation to take any risk but now in next half of the season we can expect better things and better results which will create good entertainment for the fans.

Both teams were very nervous and this was reflected in the game. Teams can often be like this in derbies and these tensions usually disappear after the match starts, but the tension did not disappear in this match. The priority of both teams was to defend and they achieved this. If I remember correctly, the number of fouls committed in the match was 45. 45 fouls in a match means that the game was stopped a lot.

Fenerbahçe should have gotten 3 points in this home match. Fred's red card in the previous match and his absence in this match had a negative impact on Fenerbahçe. The referees of the Super League are very bad at managing matches and as long as these referees are not changed, it becomes very difficult to watch football. They stop the game in every attack and although one half of the match is 45 minutes, the time the ball remains in play is 22 minutes in the first half. That's a terrible statistic. A 1-minute extra time decision was made in the first half, and even this shows how bad the referees were.

For me both teams failed in Europe this year, Galatasaray throwing away a big opportunitie after the Manchester United collapse in Champions and losing up the poisition against a weak Copenhagen and Fenerbahce losing some games by a large margin against weak teams in the nordic states.

So this derby is very important for the league and for the teams to close the year.
Personally, I think Galatasaray were unlucky to be drawn in the most difficult group in this seasons UEFA champions league competition. The group F was the most difficult group of this season's UEFA champions league and was regarded as the group of death become of the quality of teams contained in the group.  Galatasaray failed to reach the knockout stages for a fact but unlike their English counterpart Manchester United who finished bottom of the group F and eliminated from the competition,  they managed to finish third and progressed to the knockout stages of the UEFA Europa League.
Fenerbahçe finished as the league leaders of the group B in the UEFA Europa League and will be playing in the round of 16 of the competition so I don't think they've had a bad campaign in the Europa League so far. Hopefully,  their game tonight is gonna  produce entertaining performance for fans 9f both clubs

Football has become very bad. I think this football does not suit F.Bahçe and Galatasaray.
There was no memorable position in the match. Turkish league is not the 6th biggest league in Europe. Apart from these matches, Fenerbahce, Galatasaray and Adanademirspor are playing the best football in the current league. It is a waste of time to watch the football played by the remaining teams even on television, rather than watching it from the stadium.
If authorities encounter this problem, they must seek maintenance. It was a waste of 120 minutes for me. (Including overtime and 15 breaks in the first half)

I agree with you, both teams have had bad results recently. But whoever wins this match will keep their prestige. That's why these matches are so important.

Fenerbahçe coach Ismail Kartal is using Copenhagen's tactics. Fenerbahçe play a rigid and hard defense. That's why we don't see good football on the pitch. But I think Ismail Kartal has chosen the right tactic because Fenerbahçe will have no other chance against Galatasaray. Defending well and scoring on the counter attack is a good tactic for them. On the other hand, Galatasaray's quality players like Icardi, Kerem and Ziyech were a bit ineffective today. They need to take some responsibility in the second half.

I almost forgot to watch such an important match. Luckily I made it to catch the last 40 minutes. However, the 0-0 draw that has continued so far shows that I haven't missed much Cheesy

The referee is already a disgrace. He calls a foul in every double play and stops the match.

He has to do it mate, as you know in Turkish Super League every team is furious against to referee because of their decisions. And recently there was a violance against to referee therefore they try their best.
