What happened in Turkish football today? 18.10

Quaresma has brought important win against tough opponents

One of the most awaiting games of the 8th week at the Super League was between Besiktas and Caykur Rizespor, as it was game against best attacking team so far at the league against team which only lost one game.

During first half of the game, it was in fact an equal game between two team and in same time it was fast paced game. Even through Besiktas did not score a goal, it needs to be noted that team has played in same attacking manner as it done every week. However, good defence by Rizespor and some attacks by them has shown why its a team which only lost one game.

Up to 63rd minute, it could be qualified as fast game where both teams has played its own game and tried to get point/s. However, Ricardo Quaresma, who has entered into game at 2nd half, has scored a very important goal for the club and has proven to the club and its supporters that he did not have return to the club this summer for nothing. After Quaresma, Besiktas has continued to play great  and had control of the  game and could at least two more goals.

Besiktas with another positive looking performance has gained latest win and had regained its leadership at the Super League. Of course, its hard to know how Besiktas will play in upcoming weeks but its certain that team's head coach Senol Gunes is getting best out of his players currently. Meanwhile, in Rizespor sight, it could be certain that club will play good game in following games and might bring some trouble to other teams, including champion contenders.

Van Persie free-kick was only good think in game against Kayserispor.

In contrast to the game between Besiktas and Rizespor, Kayserispor - Fenerbahce could not be categorised as such excitement and might even be one of the boring games so far played in Super League this season.

One of the main aspects of game to be so poor is poor performance by Kayserispor and not showing any threat towards Fenerbahce until last 20 minutes. Plus those attacks had only took place because of Fenerbahce players were so laid back that an unexpected attacking football by Kayserispor had brought shock towards them. Taking account how dangerous were Kayserispor attacks at those moments, Fenerbahce needs consists itself lucky to win game.

However, goal scorer of the game was Robin van Persie with his great freekick showing reasons to club and fans why he was brought in first place. That goal was also very important undoubetly for Van Persie himself as he has tough times at the club and also elimination of Dutch national team from Euro2016 qualifiers. It can be said that van Persie goal would raise motivation very highly even through its uncertain if he will continue in high pace.

Another plus for Fenerbahce is to have calm non-effortless game prior to games against Ajax in Europa League and Galatasaray at Super League. Coming to Kayserispor, the club is having poor game with lack of organisation, as club head coach Tolunay Kafkas said himself aim of the team is not to be relegated.

Trabzonspor needs to forget its internal and external issues if it wants to win Mersin Idman Yurdu.

Despite of having great start at this season Super League, Trabzonspor has lost last 3 games and seems to lack of fast-paced performances in games. However, tomorrow game against last-placed Mersin Idman Yurdu could be great attempt for the club to start its new winning streak.

Trabzonspor in last two weeks had very active last two weeks which could affect negatively to the club. First, decision to acquint Fenerbahce at match-fixinging, which negatively affects its argument for 2010-11 title. Seconly, long-term argument by head coach Shota Arveladze that referees stop club progressing. Thirdly, aftermath of Erkan Zengin and Mehmet Ekici fight, which been solved.

It is important for Trabzonspor to forget its internal/external problems because if team will think about this that it might lose to Mersin Idman Yurdu which so far did not win any game at Super League.
