Galatasaray's title victory prompted hundreds of Fener fans to clash with Turkish police and occupy the Sukru Saracoglu pitch after Sunday's Super Lig championship play-off
Fenerbahce supporters have rioted following the team's goalless draw with Galatasaray on Saturday, which saw them surrender their Super Lig title to their bitter rivals.
Unruly fans broke plastic chairs and threw them at the police after the final whistle at the Sukru Saracoglu, while flares were also thrown onto the pitch.
Pepper spray was also used, as the teams quickly fled to changing rooms, but journalists, players and even officers were said to have been affected by its dispersion.
Meanwhile, Galatasaray's championship success saw many of their fans celebrate the triumph in Istanbul in the form of dancing, lighting flares and waving flags.
Saturday's title decider was not without its controversy, though. Referee Cuneyt Cakir, who is to officiate during Euro 2012, booked a number of players and showed a red card to players on both sides.
Nonetheless, Cimbom prevailed in the Super Lig play-offs, finishing one point ahead of Fenerbahce, and are now level on 18 league titles with Fener.
