What happened in Turkish football today? 09.05.2016


Fenerbahce made it chance to get title almost to none.

Fenerbahce has lost very important 3 points against Basaksehirspor during 32nd week Super League game and in similar manner as last year has almost given championship to its opponents during its game at the Basaksehir stadium. Besiktas right now only needs to get 1 draw to get league title during next 2 weeks.

Fenerbahce during the game didnt provide hardly any danger to the Basaksehirspor goal until conceding two goals. It made lots of mistakes at the attacks during the game and in fact all of the players at the field were providing performance way below its level. To some extend it does seem that Besiktas win against Galatasaray has affected negatively to the players, especially mentally. Number of football analysts did state that it should be surprising if Fenerbahce losses today after Besiktas has won yesterday since it would affect teams motivation and that what has happened to the team during the game. Fenerbahce didnt manage to control game a lot with poor performance of the main players. Even when Robin van Persie has raised his performance in last 20 minutes he didnt manage to score penalty and very good chance with his header. Meanwhile, Basaksehirspor player Edin Visca has probably provided themselves 4th place at the league and also league title to Besiktas.

With following results Fenerbahce chances are left for the miracle as it needs to win rest of the two games and hope that Besiktas loses all of the two games which is left at the Super League. The future of the Fenerbahce head coach Vitor Pereira quite naturally will be uncertain after this game.

Basaksehirspor has got an important 3 points from its perspectives and with good results from last 2 games will get 4th place and Europa League spot at the end of the season as it had 4 point advantage from Osmanlispor who are 5th placed.

Besiktas is just one draw away from league title

The goal which was scored by Mario Gomez at the 76th minute against Galatasaray during 32nd week of the Super League game could make Besiktas to get league title at the end of the season.

Besiktas right now needs to get only a draw out of 2 fixtures regardless what Fenerbahce does.
As been stated at yesterday's blog, Besiktas didnt play its best football but always had control of the game and did provide image that it can get much-important win against its historical rivals. Besiktas player Jose Sosa alone could bring comfortable win against Galatasaray if his shots during the game were much better as he had missed around 5 goal-scoring shots. Coming to the goal of Mario Gomez, there is lots of talk if goal should been eligible as their was fan inside the field. However, since he was too far and didnt affect at all to the game it was right decision to count the goal. If Galatasaray did start however counter-attack at that time, game would been stopped. Besiktas had some stressful moments during the game especially first half but it managed to get very important win at the end of the day.

Besiktas is now focussing to tough game against Osmanlispor but it will use its home advantage once again very likely and aim for at least a draw so it can celebrate championship on that game.

Galatasaray has provided best football but it didnt have enough stamina for whole game.

Galatasaray has provided one of the best football it had during this season and especially during 1st half has found high number of positions but as game carried on with so much effort given by the Galatasaray players had become tired which affected to rise of number of attacks by Besiktas in 2nd half.

It needs to be stated that despite of some comments made prior game Galatasaray did provide great football and tried to score at some moments of the game. In fact, in comparison it could be stated that Galatasaray played better football than it did against Fenerbahce. However, those attacks did come in spontaneous and most  of them lacked organisation which hence led them not to score goals. With players low motivation and stamina it lost its focus at 2nd half and after conceding goal from Mario Gomez it has mentally and physically gave up into the game.

Right now, Galatasaray has hard task for getting 4th place which would leave them with league route to Europa League and hence go through UEFA ban. Its 4 points behind 4th placed Basaksehirspor and it does seem tough to catch them
