got a tough victory at home against Goztepe. In the first Birinci Lig game of Y2K, Tayfur
scored the first goal in the 35th minute. Although Besiktas dominated the whole game,
Goztepe tied the score in their first and only attack in the 51st minute. Stressfull and
painfull minutes came afterwards until Ertugrul's life-saving goal of 83th minute. Ahmet
Dursun was booked in the game and misses the Fenerbahce game next week. |

In
the first game after Fenerbahce trainer Zeman's resignation, Fenerbahce got a victory with
2-1. Our multi-million worth player Ayhan scored his first goal (!) for the season.
Our ex-player and little human particle Alpay was sent out of the game as a result of his
aggresiveness. Fenerbahce's victory helped Galatasaray more than themselves, Galatasaray
is now one more step close to the championship. |

got a victory against Erzurumspor after a loss to Fenerbahce last week. Besiktas moved up
to the second place where Galatasaray left to points to Istanbulspor. However, there are
still tons of point difference between leader Galatasaray and Besiktas. |
