Was there a fixed match of Galatasaray? 

Was there a fixed match of Galatasaray?

18.05.2015

The almost sure champion of Turkey, Galatasaray is kneaded in a grandiose scandal on the eve of the end of the Championship. The Istanbul grand is investigated for the stipulation of the match because of the way that led to victory against the Genclerbirligi over the weekend.
The match went to a goalless draw when, in the 67th minute, Wesley Sneijder fired an unusual strong ball to the opponent's goal. It seemed within reach of the goalkeeper of the team from Ankara, but at the last moment, he didn't let his hand to it and it caught the door.
Thanks to this success, Galatasaray came up with a six-point lead at the top, but the advance was melted again to three when Fenerbahce beat Mersin later on Sunday. However, the lead of the team seems enough for winning the title, although there are two rounds until the end.
It is not clear yet when results could be expected from the investigation of the controversial goal. But that may reflect badly on the grand from Istanbul and the consequences are very severe.
