Super Lig Wrap: Gala stunned by Kayserispor

Roberto Mancini's side crashed out of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday with a limp display against Chelsea and Mouche's last-gasp winner saw hosts Gala drop to third in the Super Lig.

While Mouche was sent off for his over-zealous celebrations for rock-bottom Kayserispor,, the strike allowed Besiktas the opportunity to move second - a chance they took by comfortably seeing off Akhisar Belediyespor 3-0.

Besiktas are now the closest challengers to leaders Fenerbahce, after Ersun Yanal's side were comfortable 3-0 winners at 10-man Gaziantepspor in Monday's only game.

Kayserispor's back-to-back wins will have made life uncomfortable for those immediately above them, although 17th-place Kayseri Erciyesspor were able to pick up a point against UEFA Europa League outsiders Sivasspor.

Edinho's 57th-minute penalty looked to have secured them a fourth win in five, but Aydin Karabulut equalised to send Roberto Carlos' men home with a point.

Trabzonspor and Kasimpasa drew 0-0 in Friday's only game to leave the race for the final Europa League spot wide open - with just two points separating ninth and fourth.
