What happened in Turkish football today? 24.08.2017


Fenerbahce is out of Europa League in very poor performance against Vardar.

Fenerbahce has been eliminated from Europa League during play-off round as it has lost its 2nd leg game against Vardar in disgraceful way and has ended tie with 4:1 aggregate at the tie which it was expected to go through in very comfortable manner.

It would been expected for Fenerbahce during today's game to mainly focus into fast football and providing an attacking style of play looking for a goal for most section of the game possibly finding an early goal. However, Fenerbahce even through has contolled ball and play wise as in 1st leg has been better than Vardar, it didnt get full control and nonstop attacks which it needed to show whole game. Even through it could been argued that Vardar has played game with 6 defenders and has been organised at the back, it still doesnt describe lack of shots of Fenerbahce. Every team which would come out to the game where it doesnt only need to win but win with big goal difference it would been playing an attacking football for sure, but not Fenerbahce. In fact, after Vardar has equalised there was still 15 minutes left enough time to find 3 goals if played aggresive forward seeking football but instead it got into emotionality and showing that it has accepted loss, not character which supporters like to see. Stating that this reaction is not surprise if we watched how Fenerbahce played before that.

Of course, it would be unfair do not praise Vardar who got what it wanted from opponent which is usually way more stronger than them. It has marked history for getting to the Europa League stage with using smart defence and using its opportunities smartly.

Fenerbahce has shown very dissapointing performance and certainly would show some mistrust and worrying image to its supporters for rest of the season, with Aykut Kocaman losing his credibility even when it was accepted that team its not at its best.

Galatasaray are expected to get to the national break with 3 out of 3 wins.

Galatasaray would aim to carry on its perfect start of the new season with home game against newcomers of the league Sivasspor as it is expected to play at the full house at the Turk Telekom Arena. Istanbul side would come out as strong favourite for the game tomorrow and would like to show in all 90 minutes.

Prior to national team break, which would start after this week games Galatasaray has been lucky with the fixture as it has won expectly against Kayserispor and Osmanlispor which has started league poorly. Galatasaray in all circumstances, to all respect towards Sivasspor, would in all circumstances come out as favourite against them. With Galatasaray also showing satisfying performance towards its supporters would hence without doubt gain an important motivation and would be going to this national team break with high motivation. Again, football is unexpected game and hence we might see sudden loss of points but with watching how both teams compete so far this season it would be indeed a big and unexpected surprise.

Sivasspor would have a difficult time tomorrow with strong pressure towards Galatasaray players and supporters, but it needs to stay focus if it want to give upset to Istanbul giants.

Trabzonspor doesnt give up with transfer of Gustavo Gomez.

Even through Fenerbahce are reported to be incredibly close to make an agreement with Milan player Gustavo Gomez for loan, Trabzonspor is not providing any backing up for their aims to instead transfer him.

Following, Fenerbahce administrators Sekip Mostoruglu and Hasan Cetinkaya negotiations with Milan player manager, it is reported that Trabzonspor CEO Muharrem Usta would be travelling to Italy to have talks with Gustavo Gomez. Trabzonspor had arleady lost a battle for transfer of Giuliano to Fenerbahce and this time Usta plans not to make same mistake, even through his case is pretty tough as there is reports that Gomez is very close to make deal with Fenerbahce with only internal issues left to be sold at the team. Chances are still there but Trabzonspor are running out of time for sure.

It is expected that Muharrem Usta would fight for this deal to take place until Gustavo Gomez would make his final decisions where he would like to carry on his career and there is small chance that this determination by Usta would pay-off.
