Fenerbahce Women — Emlak Konut Women: 87:78, KBSL Women

Fenerbahçe Women kept their flawless start intact, beating Emlek Konut 87-78 in the KBSL. The hosts have now won all 20 matches this season, still sitting top of the table with nothing to show but wins. Emlek Konut remain third after 14 victories and six defeats, and this result adds another loss to their tally.

By then, Fenerbahçe had already built a reputation for consistency. Their recent run included wins over Galatasaray three times in April, plus a 76-59 victory against Uni Girona. They've been scoring freely—87-76 and 85-70 against the same Istanbul side—so this 87-78 win felt like business as usual.

Emlek Konut came into the game with momentum from a 91-68 thrashing of Panathinaikos on 23 September. But earlier this year they lost to Galatasaray twice in March, 76-85 and 74-82, and they've also seen 105-96 and 76-66 results against Botas Women. The inconsistency between those heavy scores and losses is the problem.

The margin of nine points suggests Fenerbahçe controlled the game without being dominant. They've scored 87 before and conceded 78 before—87-76 against Galatasaray in April—so neither side was outclassed. The hosts simply outlasted their visitors.

What the result means is straightforward. Fenerbahçe move closer to a perfect season, while Emlek Konut's gap to the leaders grows. Six losses in 20 games puts them well behind the pack, and the distance between first and third is now measured in more than just position.
