ANKARA (AA) - Besiktas finished the Turkish Super Lig 2019-2020 season Saturday in third place after shutting out Genclerbirligi 3-0 in Ankara.

Sivasspor dropped to fourth with the defeat and finished with 60 points.

Second-place Trabzonspor defeated Hes Kablo Kayserispor 2-1 in an away match and completed the season with 65 points.

- Alanyaspor secure 5th place

Aytemiz Alanyaspor surprised fans this season by collecting 57 points to secure fifth place in the table.

They defeated Ittifak Holding Konyaspor 3-2 in an away match.

Despite failing to meet expectations this season, Fenerbahce ended the campaign with a victory at home, beating Caykur Rizespor 3-1 in Istanbul.

Galatasaray drew 2-2 with Fraport TAV Antalyaspor on Friday as Lions' fans were disappointed with the team's poor performance during the season. They finished in sixth place.

- BtcTurk Yeni Malatyaspor, Hes Kablo Kayserispor, Ankaragucu relegated

BtcTurk Yeni Malatyaspor and Hes Kablo Kayserispor have been relegated after losing their final games.

They will join Ankaragucu in the second-tier TFF First League next season.

Newly crowned Super Lig champions Medipol Basaksehir will face Kasimpasa on Sunday for the final match of the 2019-2020 season.

Medipol Basaksehir qualified automatically for the group stage of next season's Champions League.

UEFA banned Trabzonspor from club competitions for one year for failing to meet financial targets but the team appealed the ruling in the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
