What happened in Turkish football today? 08.05.2016


Mario Gomez goal could bring league title to Besiktas.

Besiktas did manage to win 32nd Super League game against Galatasaray in stressful game and carries on its route for its league title in the game which was seen by many observers as decider. It needs however to be stated that Besiktas didnt provide great performances at 1st half but did improve at 2nd half.

Galatasaray with its performance was closer for a win during 1st half with catching much more chances while Besiktas did look like psychologically there were not ready for the game. Besiktas has provided much better performance during 2nd half with arleady Jose Sosa creating lots of chances from start of half. However, without much surprise Super League most goalscoring player Mario Gomez managed to find winning goal at 76th minute of the game. Besiktas didnt provide its best performances of this season but it create lots of attacks and did show that it came out for today's game for a  which it got. Meanwhile, during the goal position there was a supporter who has entered to the field to the midfield section of the field. It could be argued that game could have stopped but since his behaviour didnt affect directly to the game decision to carry on game and count goal as eligible.

Besiktas became much more closer to the league title as for them winning one game and drawing another will be enough to get a league title regardless how Fenerbahce plays. However, any moment Besiktas loses game it could give title to the Fenerbahce. Besiktas will play tough game against Osmanlispor next week and would meet against Konyaspor at the last week where Konyaspor prior to game could guarentee its 3rd place.

Galatasaray did provide a good football and did fight to finding chances especially during first half in which it could be said that the fearful fact that Galatasaray will allow Besiktas to win the game and with the lack of finding goals. Of course, after conceding goal and negative behaviour of supporters and lack of motivation by the players it didnt carry on good performance.

Trabzonspor surprisingly wins Rizespor with 6:0 scoreline.

With almost whole season providing poor performance Trabzonspor has managed to score 6 goals without reply against Rizespor during Super League 32nd week game and hence provided one of the biggest surprises of this week at the league.

Trabzonspor by finding 6 goals and with providing an attacking football during whole game has provided incredible performance without allowing any movement to the Rizespor. And it is important to note that the game was played 11 on 11 so its not like Rizespor could not match up. Prior to the game, with reference to previous games Trabzonspor was seen to have difficulty to the game but just opposite has happened in today's game. Trabzonspor youth player, born on 1997, Yusuf Yazici has become star of the game by finding goal 5th goal and also his general performance by creating number of good chances. This was by far the best performance of Trabzonspor with its head coach Hami Mandirali this season who was heavily criticised by the fans. Of course, as always this performance does raise question of why their didnt perform like that in previous weeks but it is great performance today.

It was stated several times at this blog that it is important for team to provide good performance at the end of the season as to make build-up for next season and if it carries on like that for last 2 games in the season it can raise some hope at administrators and fans.

Meanwhile, this unexpected loss by Rizespor made them lose their chance from getting from drop zone. Being 4 points ahead and 2 games to play it does have control at hand but now the team will be at stressful position at next week game against Gaziantepspor.

Fenerbahce does come out at better form against Basaksehirspor.

Fenerbahce is going to play one of the toughest games of this season during 32nd week Super League game against Basaksehirspor which could also be treated as another Istanbul derby. Basaksehirspor has always being tough team for top 3 teams in the Super League.

Fenerbahce administrators, players and head coach Vitor Pereira are right now fully focussed to win all of the 3 games left at the Super League and hope that it will become champions of this season. Basaksehirspor meanwhile is fighting for top 4 spot however in the sense of recent performance Fenerbahce does come as strong favourite as it managed to find 10 goals in last 3 games at the league and looks forward to carry on this form in game against Basaksehirspor. The team has managed to provide high football both at defensive and attacking side and among not conceding goals it now doesnt concede goals during the games.

Fenerbahce does come out as strong favourite with its latest performance and its focus to get this league title. It wont be easy for Fenerbahce but Basaksehirspor does need to play above its best football if it wants to dissapoint its opponents.
