Ederson howler at 90+8 hands Galatasaray lead; ex-Benfica misery (Video) | OneFootball

Fenerbahçe let a crucial win slip away after drawing 2-2 with Rizespor in a game that had everything… including an error by Ederson that could weigh heavily in the final standings. Domenico Tedesco’s side came very close to taking three vital points, but ended up conceding deep into stoppage time, in a moment that is hard to explain.

After a comeback built with goals from two former Benfica players, Talisca (80', from the penalty spot) and Kerem Akturkoglu in the 86th minute - who is in fine form - the situation seemed under control. However, when everything pointed to a victory, the decisive moment arrived: another former Eagles player, Ederson, came out badly for a high ball, collided with a teammate and left the goal wide open, allowing Modibo Sagnan to make it 2-2 at 90+8.

The impact of this mistake could be enormous. Fenerbahçe remain in second place with 67 points, but could see Galatasaray, who have 68, pull further ahead at the top, while Trabzonspor (64) are closing in dangerously. With only four rounds left to play, every detail matters, and this may have been a decisive one.

To make matters worse, the next round brings a direct clash between Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe, in a derby that could decide the champion. What is certain is that, after this draw, Fenerbahçe no longer depend only on themselves, all because of a moment that will hardly be forgotten.

This season, Ederson Moraes - valued at 13 million euros - has already featured in 34 matches: 23 in the Turkish League, nine in the Europa League and two in the Turkish Super Cup. In 3,060 minutes on the pitch, the Brazilian goalkeeper has conceded 33 goals.
