What happened in Turkish football today? 02.08.2017
Basaksehirspor has qualified to the Champions League play-off round.
Basaksehirspor has shown great result during UEFA Champions League 3rd qualifying round 2nd leg game against Club Brugge and has qualified to the play-off round where it would meet with much stronger opponent but by winning today it has marked an important achievement.
Basaksehirspor even more importantly has achieved that with scoring 2 goals during 1st half with especially goal by Emmanuel Adebayor an early goal as soon as 7th minute. It needs to be stated that in fact that Basaksehirspor has shown this great result which has come from 1st leg game where it has managed to turn game from 2:0 scoreline to winning game 3:2. Without doubt Basaksehirspor has shown a great result in the history of its own club and also in Turkish football. With taking account that it has very limited number of supporters at its disposal, it does show a great character which it needs to succeed and experience in European tournament especially taking account that Club Brugge does have great historical successes in the European front. It needs to be noted that Basaksehirspor would certainly compete at the Europe during next season, as it would be competing in proper Europa League even if its gets eliminated during Europa League.
Club Brugge did show great performance start of the 1st leg at this tie and has shown image that it might win it without any doubt but wasnt able to respond today to well-organised its opponent Basaksehirspor. Right now it would be competing at Europa League with what for some people might see surprise elimination.
Basaksehirspor has shown a very good performance at the game today and would be going at confident manner to the play-off round with 5:3 aggregate scoreline with well deserved performance result during 2 legs.
Fenerbahce does come out as favourites but it needs to stay focussed.
Fenerbahce would come with an away goal advantage for the Europa League 3rd qualifying round 2nd leg game where it would be aiming to win Sturm Graz and get to the play-off round of the competition.
Fenerbahce did show good performance during 1st leg game despite of conceding a goal and now would be looking forward to end this tie with a win and possibly aiming for better performance from 1st leg. As been stated, by Fenerbahce head coach Aykut Kocaman the team is not yet performing its best performance but its going into this direction as it aims to provide faster but same time much more compact football and would aim to get to the play-off. Their opponents will not also provide an easy game as it does have also an advantage to get to the next stage with 2:1 scoreline and would look to provide an attacking football which their can do as been seen from 1st leg game. Fenerbahce does need to play still good organised football and would not have much issues likely against their opponents.
Fenerbahce does come out as favourites for the game tomorrow but it needs to be concentrated to the game if it doesnt want to get surprising result tomorrow.
Burak Yilmaz is joining Trabzonspor again
Trabzonspor transfer of Burak Yilmaz has become even more closer as the player has terminated contract with Beijing Guoan and during his video message focussed into 50th birthday of the Trabzonspor has stated that he would be joining team in upcoming days.
Meanwhile, Trabzonspor did make statement that the team has started transfer negotiations with a team and are getting pretty close at making official statement. It became clear that Burak Yilmaz in fact did have issues at getting adapted to the Chinese league and hence has decided to return to the Turkey to his old club where he has provided great performance during match-fixing known season. One of other reasons has been also his children schooling issue. Joining Trabzonspor and even through Burak Yilmaz has shown good performance at the team, would mean that he would be joining to the team where he became star of the Turkish football and would aim to show similar performance at the team again, which teams aims for league title.
With Trabzonspor being reasonably quiet during this transfer window, if this transfer would be finalised which it looks like it will would be turning to their biggest transfer in this period.
