Galatasaray won the Süper Lig title for the 20th time and earned the right to wear a fourth star on their shirt next season.

The Lions beat Beşiktaş 2-0 in the Istanbul derby on the weekend but needed Fenerbahçe to drop points against Başakşehir to win the championship.

Fenerbahçe ended up drawing 2-2 against fourth placed Başakşehir and dropping out of the title race.
