What happened in Turkish football today? 29.07.2016


Basaksehirspor didnt provide its best performance against Rijeka.

Basaksehirspor has started its 2016-17 season with a goalless draw at the Europa League 3rd qualifying round 1st leg game against Rijeka in the game which was dominated by controversial refereeing of the game.

The game was mainly discussed by the moment of the 25th minute when Rijeka player has clearly played handball at the penalty area and with shocking decision of the referee the penalty was not given. It is certain that this decision has affected how game developed but still doesnt mean that Basaksehirspor has satisfied with its performance during the game. There was expectation of much better performance by the team as it allowed for Rijeka to control most part of the game especially during 1st half. It is true that team did provide some improvement during 2nd half of the game but still it wasnt enough to recieve adventage scoreline after game in Istanbul. The team certainly needs to improve if it wants to see play-off stage of qualifying and join Konyaspor at the Europa League group stage.

The fact that game has ended with 0:0 is at least keeps game at the equal chance and with improvement of performance in 2nd leg Basaksehirspor can take an important win.

Osmanlispor is getting used to the European football.

In other side, Osmanlispor which didnt provide high expectation has so far going pretty good at the Europa League qualifiers without losing 3 games, even through all of the opponents were weaker teams compare to them.

As been stated, with strength both Kalje and Zimbru in previous round were weaker teams than  them but there was fear that Osmanlispor might not be able to cope with competing at the Europa League pressure and it was kindly observed at Zimbru 1st game. However, now Osmanlispor is providing good game with a 1:0 scoreline in yesterday and as long as it stay focus at the 2nd leg in Tallinn it should not have big problems at getting to play-off stage of the tournament. As stated above, this achievement is not incredibly impressive as it didnt play yet tough opponents but fact  that it had manage to deal with stress is impressive. As long as team carries on winning it would also get into winning spirit which could be good for them as tournament progresses and also at the Super League during 1st weeks.

Osmanlispor needs to stay focus and provide good performance as mentally it could be more difficult for them as their will playing away which did create some issues earlier in tournament in Chisinau.

Besiktas officially announces transfer of Adriano.

Besiktas has officially announced its newly-signed player Adriano which it has transferred from Barcelona for 3 years, and it does look that for now Adriano is happy to choose Istanbul side.

According to contract, as Barcelona has announced that Besiktas will pay additional 1,700,000 euro to 600,000 euro if Besiktas does manage to get to Champions League in this 3 year period time, this is not included for this season ofcourse. Meanwhile, Besiktas has announced salary of 2,450,000 euro at the 1st season to the Adriano contract and reduction to the 1,850,000 euro in next two seasons per year, which is good salary agreement for Adriano taking account his current stage of his career. At today interview, Adriano meanwhile has stated that he would like to play in Super Cup against Galatasaray at least few minutes on 13th August which is good sign as it shows how much he wants to play for his new club.
