Both teams had chances to find the back of the net, but it's a scoreless draw in the Istanbul Derby. It was a surreal spectacle with the stands empty due to the continuing Covid-19 crisis. Both Galatasaray and Besiktas suffered from a lack of intensity and a lack of cutting edge in the final third.

FULL TIME: Galatasaray 0-0 Besiktas

Bayram plays a cross into the middle, but Besiktas defend it and that should be that. We are into the final minute of stoppage time and there is no dividing these two teams.
92'
We're into stoppage time now at the Turk Telecom Arena and it looks like the two rivals will have to settle for a point apiece. It has been an entertaining game, but there has been a lack of quality in attack.

And one final change for the home side and Andone comes on for Falcao.

Besiktas are throwing bodies forward in an effort to find a late winner, but that is also leaving space in behind for Galatasaray to stride into when they win the ball back. Stretched.

Hutchinson at the near post! The Besiktas player met the corner kick delivery nicely at the near post, but Muslera makes the save to keep the scoreline level! That was an opportunity.

The problem for Galatasaray has been that they have struggled to create opportunities ad when they have they have failed to take them. There has been a lack of quality there.

Big chance for Onyekuru! The pass was played into the Nigerian, the run of Saracchi down the left side drew the attention of the Besiktas defender, but Onyekuru sends his shot high and wide. That was a big chance!
81'
The midfield battle between Seri and Elneny has been a compelling one so far. Elneny has made a real impression at Beskitas since joining the Turkish club on loan from Arsenal.
80'
Bayram has made a difference since coming off the bench for Galatasaray. Belhanda struggled to make a mark in the first half, but Bayram has been much more creative.
79'
Is there a winner left in this match? Both teams are going for this now. Space is opening up. There is still time for either side to take a grip of things. Still goalless in this derby clash.

FEGHOULI... wide! That should have been the opening goal! Karius made a diving save from Bayram, the ball then fell to Feghouli, but the Galatasaray man could only put his shot wide of the far post!
77'
Muslera is the only goalkeeper in the Turkish Super Lig to have kept more clean sheets than Karius this season. The German has found some redemption in Istanbul since leaving Liverpool.
76'
Feghouli has been quiet in this second half. He is so important to Galatasaray, particularly as the supply line to Falcao, but it's been tough going for the attacking midfielder.
