What happened in Turkish football today? 19.10.2016


Aboubakar has become hero for Besiktas with two goals scored against Napoli.

Vincent Aboubakar who has been criticised a lot during his recent performance and lack of finding goals has surely become hero for the Besiktas during Champions League Group B game against
Napoli as he have scored two very important goals which brought them a very important win.

Besiktas has provided very good football against favourite team of this group and despite of starting game in not such a great manner with allowing Napoli to control game during first minutes, it has responded incredibly well during 2nd half of the game. In fact, despite of scoring two goals during 1st half those goals has mainly came from counter-attacks, however as the game progressed Besiktas surely start also performing top football and in some moments even play better than Napoli. In fact, this performance is certainly been one of the best for this season and surely has been best for Aboubakar since he has joined the team this summer. It was stated prior to game that this game would be turning point and even last chance for him and he has responded it with great performance wanting to create chance, helping his teammates and most importanly scoring two goals. Aboubakar surely after today, at least until Antalyaspor game on Sunday, has made quite his critics.

Napoli started in great manner even possibly making vision that it would have confident win with back-to-back attacks but goal scored by Adriano has provided sudden shock effect to Italian side. It did fight back during drawing twice and providing Champions League style response but today it wasnt strong enough against Besiktas.

Besiktas has won a very important game today at one of the most hardest away games for this season for them which would identify rest of the season. But even more it does seem to win Vincent Aboubakar for this season.

Fenerbahce need to give their best against Manchester United despite of being tired from plane incident.

After very dissapointing game against Alanyaspor during Super League, Fenerbahce would come out to play one of the important games at the Europa League Group A group stage against giants Manchester United. With Fenerbahce being leaders at the group, the draw might be enough from Old Trafford.

It needs to be stated that Manchester United also didnt start its season at the Premier League in very successful manner and did lose high number of the points but it does have players which are much more quality naturally such as Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Pogba. So it will not be an easy game for Fenerbahce at all. Taking account of the incident with the plane which has landed to the Hungary due of bird hitting window would also provide some damage to the team, to the tiredness and lack of training and rest. This physical aspect could provide advantage to Manchester United, but Fenerbahce only thing to do is to believe its strength. This game would also be special for Robin van Persie who is returning to his old club and he did state several times that he is excited to play against his old club and would aim to provide top football. It is chance for Robin van Persie to show himself again.

This would be pretty tough game for Fenerbahce taking account its opponents and also its poor performance at the Super League, but it does have chance as it is questinable how would United perform themselves.

Osmanlispor needs to carry on its impressive performance at Europa League.

Osmanlispor carries on impressive Europa League campaign against favourites of the group Villareal who are also leaders at the group with obtaining 4 points after two games. Osmanlispor does need to come out to game at full focus and believe to its strength if it wants to get right result.

Osmanlispor has become surely one of the most impressive teams at this season at Europa League despite of it being only at the group stages and this motivation and confidence obtained from tournament should be carried on at the game tomorrow. It should not be scared of the team which is even through does come out as favourite is not much more stronger. It needs to be stated that by winning Villareal, Osmanlispor to have chance to get leadership also at the group if Steaua Bucharest manages to win Zurich. So this factor should also keep Osmanlispor to be motivated and mark an important historical chance at the midstage of the Group L stage.

Osmanlispor has arleady created focus towards them but it needs to build on that and provide strong message to the rest teams of the group and in fact towards whole group.
