What happened in Turkish football today? 17/11/2017



Besiktas didnt manage to find goal against Akhisarspor apart of dominating game from start to end. 

Besiktas didnt manage to win against Akhisarspor during Super League 12th week game as game has ended with goalless draw as it has dominated game from start to end but couldnt find a key goal during whole game.

Besiktas did come out to the game with an aim to win which could be seen from start of the game when Jeremain Lens has found a very good chance but didnt convert it. However, it needs to be stated that key moment of the game has been certainly penalty position which was missed by Ricardo Quaresma and didnt follow up with additional shot by Negredo. That missing penalty has certainly led Akhisarspor to provide much more stronger defence and didnt allow Besiktas to provide great last shot moments as it gained motivation for game, but another problem for Besiktas has been not to having last minute shot. Besiktas did provide very good attacking football but the role of Akhisarspor has played an important goal which allowed one of highly excited 0:0 scoreline game. Meanwhile, this has been 1st game of Besiktas at home where it didnt concede goal. Without doubt even through as been stated Besiktas did provide good performance with high chances, the game against Porto for Besiktas did affect negatively to the psychologically.

Akhisarspor had provided a very good defensive game and has managed not to concede goal against Besiktas at their ground which is without doubt is very good result for them, especially taking account that their played with one man less for 17 minutes which was pretty unfair red card.

Besiktas certainly did lose 2 points in game wise and also has got a chance to get into top of the league at the week where Basaksehirspor and Galatasaray, both above them, has provided bad result result for them.

Basaksehirspor and Galatasaray game promises to be with high tension as both sides would only play for a win.

Without doubt the most important game of this week would be taken place between Galatasaray and Basaksehirspor as top two places are going to meet and result would decide if Galatasaray will carry on its leadership with strong point difference or Basaksehirspor will catch them as point difference is 3 points.

It needs to be reminded here, as its being an important point, that Galatasaray head coach Igor Tudor still didnt manage to win big teams at his career which is with recent performance Basaksehirspor would be added to. In other hand, Basaksehirspor so far didnt lose games until big 4 teams as it has played with Fenerbahce, Trabzonspor and Besiktas. Hence, coming to performance wise in those games and also psychological pressure Basaksehirspor does have an advantage at the game but it needs to be stated that Galatasaray form so far in this season is better than their opponents. The game without doubt would be difficult to be called for certain right now and hence might be played in very tactical way and even through might not be very exciting one, as both teams would be filling lots of the pressure as both sides would only aim for a win.

At short, this is certainly which shouldnt not missed as the result of the game at least would determine character of the league until mid-season break.

Turkish referee Cuneyt Cakir has been appointed among referees for World Cup. 

Turkish referee Cuneyt Cakir among his assistants Bahadir Duran and Tarik Ongun has been selected to the World Cup referee list, this time refereeing at Russia between 14th June-15th July next year and being only representative from Turkey once again.

Even through Cuneyt Cakir carries on being heavily criticised in Turkey, he is still praised by FIFA and UEFA and carries on getting important games which includes latest World Cup 2018 European play-off 1st leg game between Sweden and Italy where he has shown great performance and recieved praise apart from Italian media. He has potential to get as far as to knockout stages of the tournament and even semi-final at World Cup if he carries showing this kind of performance as referee. Of course, until World Cup he needs to stay at form at the Super League and in UEFA competitions and it would be expected that he could be appointed to more games in near future.

Cuneyt Cakir has good potentiality to show good performance at the tournament and hence carry on high level performance in this level next season.
