A last minute goal by Brazilian defender Maicon helped Galatasaray claim a 3-2 victory at home against an inspired Kardemir Karabükspor Saturday.

The win made sure the Lions remain top of the league with six victories in seven gameweeks and maintain a hefty lead over their nearest rivals Beşiktaş.

The Turkish football leagues will go into an international break this week for the remaining qualifying matches for the 2018 World Cup.
