What happened in Turkish football today? 26.02.2017


Fenerbahce both internally and in performance is in a mess.

Super League 22nd week game between Gaziantepspor and Fenerbahce has been a very important game for both sides as Fenerbahce was still hoping to get to the back of the title race and Gaziantepspor was fighting to stay at the Super League for next season, and the game has ended with 1:1 scoreline which wasnt helpful for both sides.

Fenerbahce still carries on providing very poor performance without much confident movement by the team and this game-play clearly shows that the team is going through very critical period of time both at the inside the team and outside factors. Fenerbahce is coming towards the area that the team is coming to the team without any aims with 12 weeks left to play and might even lose Europa League spot at the table. Following the game, Fenerbahce player Jeremain Lens has stated that the team is lacking confidence and only way is to get it back is by starting winning the game. Staying at the Jeremain Lens, he was only player at the field who was staying focus at the game and has done most of the effort for a win including scoring only goal by him. Most of the team has been walking around the field without providing much effort to the game. Fenerbahce is in big crises and winning even one game might not solve that issue.

It needs to be stated that Gaziantepspor has provided better football for most part of the game with creating good chances and almost winning with 100% chance at the last minute of the game. If it carries on perfoming like this among getting motivation from last 3 games with draws, it might have chance at staying at the league.

As been mentioned earlier when analysing Fenerbahce the situation is more critical than looking performance but more importantly to understand what is happening inside the team. And its not looking good inside the team.

Both Trabzonspor and Konyaspor wanted to win the game.

During Super League 22nd week game between Konyaspor and Trabzonspor, which has ended with 1:1 scoreline, both sides has shown their will to get 3 points with high number of dangerous chances. However, it does need to be stated that Konyaspor had wanted to win game even more.

Trabzonspor since start of this year has shown very positive and forward-seeking style game which has led them not to lose 6 games at the Super League, even through their recieve last 2 games as the draws. Even through this could be seen as reduction of quality play with them it still able to keep motivation high with confidence as it carries on playing positive football. However, as been stated above Konyaspor did provide a good football with an attacking football looking to find goals and was just unlucky to pass Trabzonspor player Onur Kivrak who has shown one of his best performance at this season more or less. Konyaspor does provide good performance and this could be for them new start for rest of the season as it can aim to raise at the table.

Trabzonspor as been stated improved a lot at the 2017 and as long as players would focus to win the games as the season progresses it could set into right mood and focus for next season.

Galatasaray must win against Besiktas for league title race.

Super League 22nd week game will be concluded with very important game between Galatasaray and Besiktas which could set up many aspects for the rest of the season and directly affect rest of the season of Galatasaray due of title race.

In fact, Galatasaray is currently 10 points behind league leaders Besiktas and hence for them this game is must win or otherwise it would get a big damage for league title race and without winning its direct opponents would need to wait for many results to go into their way. In fact, for Besiktas the game is not as much crucial for Galatasaray as if their lose their would lose big advantage but still will be able to fight for league title with Basaksehirspor more likely. As it is known by followers of league, on the days when Galatasaray head coach Igor Tudor earlier this season, he has won Besiktas twice this season which could provide him even more pressure as he would be accepted to repeat that success but case could be more difficult as he has come to his new team and motivation at the Besiktas will be difficult. But Igor Tudor does have advantage of knowing opponents strengths and weaknesses pretty good or otherwise he will not succeed beating them twice.

The game promises to be exciting but as been stated this game which Galatasaray must win so it would be awaiting for them to show much more attacking football at the game of the week.
