    Olympiakos tightened their grip on the leadership of the Greek first division with an impressive 6-0 demolition of Ethnikos Asteras on Sunday.

    NETHERLANDS
    Chris Atta Gyan is not regular player with Feyenoord anymore. I expect he could be able to leave the club this summer. Feyenoord is hoping to send their first generation to Feyenoord Salgado (Salgado Stars) to let the club promote to the highest division in Ghana. Some weeks ago the fourth generation already came. A player of the first generation, Jordan Opoku, a defensive midfielder is expected to move to Holland within two seasons. He could be play for Feyenoord Dutch feeders Excelsior then.

    TURKEY
    Bursaspor K 3
    Yimpa? Yozgatspor A? 1 - 69' Yaw Preko

    Hapless Yozgatspor were beaten 3-1 at Bursapor. John Moshoeu got Bursa's first after nine minutes and Sinan Yesil added a second with 66 minutes gone. Yaw Preko gave Yozgat hope four minutes later, but the Green Crocodiles were not to be denied and Faruk Atalay put the result beyond doubt seven minutes from time.

    Goztepe 2 - 8 Mehmet, 39 Ozkan
    Rizespor 3 - 3 Alpugan, 53 Kazmaz, 69 Emmanuel Tetteh

    Goztepe chairman Hamdi Turkmen claimed on Sunday that his side's 3-2 defeat by Rizespor was rigged. Turkmen alleged he had received a tip-off before the match from an Izmir restaurant owner that the game had been fixed and would end either in a 2-2 draw or a 3-2 win for Rize.
    Rize promptly sealed victory thanks in part to an Unal Alpagun penalty and a hotly-disputed Emmanuel Tetteh strike - leading Turkmen to point the finger at the referee.
