Sivasspor win, Galatasaray held by Kayserispor

Sivasspor moved back into shared first place thanks to a 2-0 win over Kocaelispor on Saturday.

Joint-leaders Trabzonspor had already beaten Ankaragucu 2-1 on Friday so Sivasspor needed a win as well to remain on top.

The score was opened on 17 minutes when Yanick Kamanan beat the opposing goalkeeper for 1-0, and Israeli Pini Balili netted a second near the hour.

Galatasaray dropped two important points in a 1-1 draw with Kayserispor. Shabani Nonda did put the Istanbul giants ahead on 27 minutes but Mehmet Eren netted a dramatic last-gasp equaliser for 1-1.

Gala’s Lincoln was sent off with a second yellow card in the 29th minute.
