Script:
Billed as a potential title decider, Galatasaray faced city rivals Besiktas on Sunday.
And it was the hosts who started stronger.
Yasin Oztekin opening the scoring in the 11th minute after this superb driving run.
The Turkish winger skipping through the Besiktas defence and converting from his rebounded shot.
Former Chelsea striker Demba Ba had a chance to equalise for Besiktas, but he was denied by the post.
Oztekin should've had his second before the break, but he couldn't keep his shot down.
With a 20th league title on the line for Gala, Wesley Sneijder made sure of the result in the 80th minute when he smashed the ball in from outside the area
2-0 it ended.
Galatasaray are now six points clear of reigning champions Fenerbache who must beat fourth-placed Istanbul Basaksehir away from home on Monday, to ensure the title fight goes to the final round.
