Galatasaray and Fenerbahce will be playing their league derby on December 24 and the league's Super Cup game will be played on December 29. This is after both teams' exhausting schedule filled with European matches. Okan Buruk (Gala manager) brought up in one his post game conferences that this busy schedule does nothing but wears down players. Both clubs have important players playing for their countries as well. They basically get no break. The congestion in the schedule truly is awful.
