What happened in Turkish football today? 05.05.2016


Fenerbahce gets into final of Turkish Cup with impressive 5:0 aggregate win against Konyaspor.

Fenerbahce has got into final of the Turkish Cup final with winning 2nd leg game against Konyaspor with 2:0 and making aggregate scoreline to impresive 5:0 scoreline. Konyaspor during the game didnt provide much pressure to the team and hence allowed Fenerbahce to have very calm campaign at cup semi-final stage.

The game in fact was very similar to the Trabzonspor at the league for Fenerbahce in sense that it allowed its opponents to control tempo and play according to that tempo with scoring goals themselves as their found them. The fact that Konyaspor doesnt tend to score lots of the goals during the previous games made it chance to qualify pretty slim tonight as it needed to find more than 3 goals during the game. Fenerbahce at first half didnt provide much performance however managed to find 2 goals during 2 half with the help of Fernandao and hence carry on its impressive performance both at the league and cup. This game is tough one to analyse since both teams seemed to be playing in a way that it was for formality which could also be realised with the atmosphere provided by supporters at the game.

Fenerbahce will meet against its old rivals Galatasaray in the Antalya for final on 26th May and with taking account that Galatasaray provides big aim for the tournamnent, it will be great game. But right now Fenerbahce will focus to the last 3 games of the league which it will aim to win and hope for Besiktas to lose one game.

Konyaspor meanwhile has achieved all its aims for this season and it could be seen as good season as it ending the league at the 3rd place and recieves direct entrance and Europa League and reached to semi-final stage of the cup.

Galatasaray still needs to get league serious as winning Turkish Cup final is not easy.

Galatasaray is one game away from achieving its one of the main tasks it has set as soon as it was out from league title race and recieved 1 year ban from UEFA which is to win Turkish Cup this season. It has managed to qualify to final game without much difficulty against Rizespor.

As was expected, Galatasaray has completed its task by winning 3:1 at the Rize during 1st leg game and was seeing as 2nd leg just pure formality despite being with its main squad at the game. It will be hard to analyse yesterday's performance with how it will perform against Besiktas at the 32nd week game and the factor to use their main players was to keep players at the form.Galatasaray will meet against Fenerbahce at the Turkish Cup final on 26th May and this game could be tough one for them so its still could be saver for them to quarentee its Europa League spot, and go through 1 year ban, through league route as final could end with unexpected result for them. One of the main players at the yesterday game was once again Fernando Muslera with his impressive saves and hence didnt allow Rizespor to get any hopes for surprise win and  ticket to the final. Another positive sign is great performance by Sinan Gumus, returning from long-term injury, who had played like he was never injured.

Right now Galatasaray is focussing towards game against Besiktas and would surely provide its best without worrying too much about title race on 8th May. There is belief that Galatasaray might allow Besiktas to win but it would be foolish by them as it has its own priorities at the league.

Bursaspor gives trust to its head coach Hamza Hamzaoglu

Bursaspor has announced today it will carry on with its head coach Hamza Hamzaoglu despite of recieving some poor results at the recent weeks. Even through both CEO Ali Ay and Hamza
Hamzaoglu did state that their want to carry on partnership with each other yesterday there were some waiting for decision to be made but it didnt surprise anyone.

It could be said to some extend that possibly Bursaspor didnt make same mistake which was made earlier by Galatasaray. Hamza Hamzaoglu always has potential to provide great results and hence might end this season at high note and also provide a good squad for next season which could be fighting for top places. It is important to keep belief and motivation with good head coaches because when their send away in sudden manner their might not come back again due of relationship with administration of a team for some years. Hamzaoglu has everything at hand to be successful and many coaches can have bad periods especially when team is mediocre.

Hamza Hamzaoglu needs still to prove the club that this choice is correct one and bring good results for last 3 games, but he is capable to achieve that.
