Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor had to settle for a 2-2 draw in Turkey's Spor Toto Super Lig match Sunday evening.

Trabzonspor started the Super Lig second week match in Istanbul with a goal when striker Burak Yilmaz took advantage and scored after Juraj Kucka's chip over Fenerbahce’s defense in the fifth minute.

Fenerbahce responded in the 45th minute when midfielder Alper Potuk defeated goalkeeper Onur Kivrak with a great low-driven shot in the left side of the penalty area.

Trabzonspor also started the second half strong. This time, winger Olcay Sahan managed to strike a powerful shot past Fenerbahce goalie Volkan Demirel in the 56th minute.

Fenerbahce pulled through one point at home after a penalty was rewarded in the 84th minute and Mathieu Valbuena made no mistake from the penalty spot.

But both sides could not capitalize on their final attacks as the match ended 2-2.

Trabzonspor still unbeaten after two matches as they accumulated 4 points, while Fenerbahce still winless as they accumulated only two points.

In other matches of the weekend, reigning champions Besiktas drew with Kasimpasa 2-2 in an away match. Galatasaray continued their winning form and defeated Osmanlispor 3-1 in Ankara.

Galatasaray guaranteed to top the table after matches as they are the only team to win both of their matches.
