What happened in Turkish football today? 30.05.2017


Galatasaray will fight for 3rd place against Konyaspor and wait for other results.

Galatasaray has won an important game against Alanyaspor during Super League 33rd week game with 3:2 scoreline and has carried on its fight to get 3rd place at the league table which could mean that it could qualify directly to Europa League if Basaksehirspor wins Turkish Cup tomorrow.

However, to achieve that it needs first to wait for Fenerbahce to lose their last game against relegated Adanaspor which does seem to be unlikely to take place. It needs to be stated regarding of yesterday game that Galatasaray has approaced to all seriousness as it has found 2 fast goals with the help of Bruma and Sinan Gumus and once again Sinan Gumus has made scoreline to 3:1 after conceding goal from Vagner Love. In fact, Gumus was the best player during yesterday's game with going forward during the game and finding goals which allowed team to win. Taking account that he was considered to be sold during summer transfer window he shown good improvement when getting chances. The problem at the game that it has lost concentration during 2nd half and wasnt able to provide fast tempo which does show that stamina issue with the team is not solved and needs to work around during summer break.

Galatasaray would now play against Konyaspor during last week and with all results coming as it wishes for it could get to Europa League from starting in September.

Basaksehirspor aim is to end memorable season with Turkish Cup.

55th Turkish Cup final game, which is 2nd important tournament of the Turkish season, will take place with suprising side of this Basaksehirspor against last season surprising team Konyaspor in Eskisehir, where Basaksehirspor would come out as favourite.

It needs to be stated that Basaksehirspor winning Turkish Cup will not only end their memorable season with Cup but also would affect directly either Fenerbahce or Galatasaray who fight for 3rd place and also Antalyaspor which would get to Europa League qualifying stage due of openning of extra spot at the standings. With Basaksehirspor getting further from league title after draw against Trabzonspor, it has surely provided full attention to Turkish Cup and would aim to win the game as it needs to be certainly rewarded for this season as it even has deserved league title for certain, where it lost to Besiktas. The team would surely provide positive football which their shown during this season.

Basaksehirspor for sure would provide their best football at the game tomorrow aiming for a win and end season at glory.

Konyaspor would provide tough times against Basaksehirspor at the final.

However, Basaksehirspor task will not be an easy one at all as it would be playing against Konyaspor which for certain also would fight for Turkish Cup title and end their not as good season at the high point, and hence forget its bad season especially after good one compare to last season.

Konyaspor during Turkish Cup has also provided better performance compare to the Super League and Europa League in this season which their been rewarded with getting until final. Even through it didnt play against big "3" Istanbul clubs at the competition it has recieved tough opponents where it has shown great character and winning spirit especially during Kasimpasa during semi-final.

Konyaspor head coach Aykut Kocaman if does leave to Fenerbahce would aim to leave this club with cup even through and despite of strong rumours at the media its not 100% sure he would leave the team. In fact, both teams are highly motivated to this game and would do their best to win it.
Konyaspor would provide tough time to Basaksehirspor and even through their opponents are favourites it will not be huge surprise if Konyaspor wins cup.
