(GSM) – Gustavo Colman’s goal on the half-hour on Sunday gave Trabzonspor a 1-0 victory over second-placed Galatasaray, opening the door for Bursaspor to open the gap on Monday.
Galatasaray came into the match on Sunday two points behind Bursaspor for the Süper Lig lead, but Trabzonspor – attempting to get back into European contention – came out with a great performance.
That lead to the opening – and only – goal in the 30th minute when Colman put a shot beyond Argentine compatriot Leo Franco in the Galatasaray goal.
The loss is Galatasaray’s second in three games, and the victory moves Trabzonspor to within six points of Besiktas for the fourth and final European spot.
The result also means that Bursaspor can move five points clear atop the league on Monday when they host relegation candidates Denizlispor.
