Latest update:
Fenerbahçe did what it had to do in the battle for the Turkish league title. The team of coach Ismail Kartal led 0-2 at halftime at Trabzonspor thanks to a double from Fred and two assists from Dusan Tadic, which came back to 2-2 after the break. Just before the end, Michy Batshuayi made the all-important 2-3, making Fenerbahçe two points behind leader Galatasaray (79 to 81). The second half was completely marred. For example, Tadic and Dominik Livakovic were hit by objects from the crowd and heavy fireworks were thrown onto the field.
At Trabzonspor, Stefano Denswil and Thomas Meunier started in defense, while Nicolas Pépé, Trezeguet and Edin Visca had to provide the supply to striker Enis Destan. On the Fenerbahçe side, Edin Dzeko was supported by Iran Can Kahveci, Sebastian Szymanski and Tadic. Ferdi Kadioglu was at left back; Jayden Oosterwolde made his entrance at the start of the second half.
Fenerbahçe opened the score after just fifteen minutes of play. Tadic passed to Fred, who scored the ball with a wonderful stroke in the far intersection for the 0-1. Szymanski seemed Fener soon afterwards to make it 0-2. However, the Pole saw that Ugurcan Cakir had made a nice save and thus neutralized his free kick.
Trabzonspor also made their presence felt in the first half, but things did not go well for the home team when Destan's bet was cleared before the line. Fred scored his second in injury time and Tadic was again the man who provided the assist. The Serbian played tightly to Fred, who scored the 0-2 from close range.
After more than an hour of play, Trabzonspor brought the tension back into the match through Enis Bardhi. The North Macedonian beautifully curled a free kick into the short intersection: 1-2. Fifteen minutes before the end, Trabzonspor was awarded a penalty after Alexander Djiku committed a foul on Denswil. Trezeguet shot the penalty flawlessly: 2-2. The match was stopped several times. For example, Dusan Tadic was pelted by objects from the audience and fireworks were thrown onto the field.
It still happened just before time Fener.Oosterwolde won a crucial header duel, allowing Tadic to deliver a sharp cross from the left to Serdar Dursun, who had come on for Dzeko. The Turk went down, but brought the ball to substitute Batshuayi. The Belgian fired the ball convincingly into the goal: 2-3.

Livakovic was important deep into injury time by tapping over Edin Visca's curled shot. While the Croat was lying on the ground, he was hit by a coin from the audience, resulting in a bloody chin. Fenerbahçe held firm despite the upheavals that followed moments later. After the game, Fenerbahçe players fled into the players' tunnel after hundreds of Trabzon fans stormed onto the field.
