What happened in Turkish football today? 21.11.2016


Trabzonspor failed to win at the farewell game at the Huseyin Avni Aker Stadium.

Trabzonspor dıdnt manage to win at the Huseyin Avni Aker Stadium where it was playing its last game until moving to the Akyazi Stadium as it has lost to the Antalyaspor with 1:0 scoreline during Super League 11th week game.

Trabzonspor has been seeing this game as the chance to restart its winning ways at the league as it was aware that it needs to get points right now. Trabzonspor has started game in fact in such a way with providing an attacking football but it needs to be stated that Antalyaspor has shown too much defensive play which could happen to the atmosphere and way Trabzonspor was going forward. Of course, conceding goal at the 8th minute has created much more pressure to Trabzonspor and as it tried to go forward after conceding it didnt manage to create dangerous attacks and despite of trying different variation couldnt overpass very defensive opponents.

Antalyaspor meanwhile has won game by finding good early goal at the 8th minute by the Chico and later has started playing much more defensive football. This win was surely was very important for Antalyaspor as it helped them to get over relegation zone but it still needs to improve with football despite of winning the game as this defensive game could bring issues in the future.

Trabzonspor once again has failed to get win especially at the home game and it needs to improve its game by finding ways to overpassing defence and providing fast football but it has potential to do just that.

Fenerbahce carries on top performance with this time beating Galatasaray.

Fenerbahce carries on its impressive tally of not to Galatasaray which it has since 1999, to 18th season but even more importantly it has carried on its impressive performance which it has shown in last 4 games both domestically and at the Europa League.

Fenerbahce has shown with its performance at the game that it was much better organised compare to Galatasaray and were focussed to win the game without providing much mistakes around the field. Even through it didnt manage to be in top regarding of the possession it needs to be stated that tactics used by Fenerbahce behind the ball, were used in an effective way which led for Galatasaray not to enter at the penalty zone. Unquestionably, the main here of the game has been Robin van Persie who has scored pretty classy goal to the Galatasaray at the end of 1st half and also penalty goal following Serdar Aziz foul to Josue. Josue de Souza was another star player of the night of Fenerbahce who did his best to create chances but in overall Fenerbahce has shown top performance including Roman
Neustadner giving his best performance since joining team.

Fenerbahce are currently are in great form and going up at the standings slowly sending strong messages to leaders Basaksehirspor and Besiktas. Fenerbahce would also look forward to carry on great performance against Fenerbahce at Europa League on 24th November.

Galatasaray carries on its poor performance as it became visible at the derby.

Galatasaray was certainly way behind its top peformance at the game against Fenerbahce at the Super League 11th week derby game and did look like it was coming for a draw. It didnt manage to create any attacking chances despite of having higher ball possession.

It needs to be stated that Galatasaray was showing big decline of its performance at the recent weeks and it wasnt big surprise for Galatasaray to lose regarding this downside but also not winning in Kadikoy for 17 years. However, the team didnt show any team spirit during the game and also interesting decisions from Jan Olde Riekerink at the starting 11 has raised some questions which includes starting with Nigel de Jong expect of the Selcuk Inan, captain and free-kick taker of the team. Rierkirink did state that it was his best squad for the game prior to kick-off but this statement could be totally criticised as players who had introduced such as Serdar Aziz and Nigel de Jong failed to show anything during the game, with Bruma being only player who was providing good football but without support he couldnt do much.

Right now Galatasaray is in critical situation and it urgently needs to get a win against Bursaspor on 25th November if it wants to go up with the performance or days of Jan Olde Riekerink could be numbered as the nature of Turkish football doesnt accept losses back-to-back when you are in big team.
