What happened in Turkish football today? 19/11/2017


Fenerbahce has got an important comfortable win when it mattered most. 

Fenerbahce has shown great character following last 2 weeks crises with its football which has almost brought resignation of its head coach Aykut Kocaman as it has won with comfortable scoreline of 4:1 against Sivasspor during Super League 12th week game thanks to Roberto Soldado hat-trick.

It was important for Fenerbahce to win game as apart of Basaksehirspor and Kayserispor, all of the teams above them at the standings has lost points at this week and has provided good chance to gain some position and also reduce point difference to 6 points against league leaders and hence put themselves directly to league leadership race. It needs to be stated that Fenerbahce has shown great character at achieving that and has won a game after getting draws as it has conceded in last minute at the last 2 games at the league. Meanwhile, one of the most important factors has been of Roberto Soldado who could not anticipated find goals, and during today's game has found hat-trick which has brought win and without doubt has become player of the game. Without doubt this scoreline is what Fenerbahce needed urgently during poor performance at last 2 weeks and with other results has got an important win for its aims for league title. Surely, Aykut Kocaman is glad to stay as coach after this game.

Meanwhile, Sivasspor did show performance much below as expected as it was among most in form teams from previous games and couldnt get into the mood of the game apart of finding 1st goal at the 2nd half but with red card it has lost concentration to the game.

Fenerbahce has got an important win with Roberto Soldado hat-trick and certainly would give some optimism for upcoming games after today's results even through it does need continuation.

 Trabzonspor has shown great comeback against Osmanlispor as it was losing with 2:0 scoreline. 

Trabzonspor has managed to win against Osmanlispor with last minute penalty goal by Burak Yilmaz at the game where it had some difficult time with team who are at the bottom at the table with great dual of goals.

In fact, Trabzonspor has started a game very poorly as it was losing game with 2:0 scoreline and looked like their opponents Osmanlispor who aim to start good period of time and raise up at the standings would be going to comfortable win. However, starting from end of the 1st half, Trabzonspor has shown a very good reaction and in between 39th and 41st minute with goals from N'doye and Burak Yilmaz has went into changing room with 2:2 scoreline. Following pretty poor performance of 1st half but with good mood it started and played 2nd half in much better way even through it did concede 1 goal from own goal. Trabzonspor still has showed a very good reaction which certainly would make team supporters and head coach Riza Calimbay to be proud especially at the game where if it lost it would find itself 2 points away from relegation zone.

Osmanlispor meanwhile did start game very well with very effective attacking football but couldnt manage to show this performance for 90 minutes as it became tired. Still this performance does show good signs for upcoming weeks but team seems to need with its stamina.

Trabzonspor who season is being very unstable right now did get an important win which would help team to raise its motivation and focus for upcoming games as those come backs regardless against who does push teams forward.

Galatasaray has lost to Basaksehirspor with very poor performance. 

Galatasaray once again has lost a game against "big" teams and has carried on poor performance of Igor Tudor against those teams as this time, it has lost to Basaksehirspor with 5:1 scoreline where Emmanuel Adebayor has dominated game with his hat-trick.

Galatasaray head coach Igor Tudor among his team carries on providing a very poor performance at the team against big clubs which includes Basaksehirspor as their had managed with this surprisingly comfortable result to get into same points with league leaders Galatasaray at 26 points. Among losing game with such a big scoreline it has also failed to get control of the game for most time of the game as Basaksehirspor has provided tempo which was suitable and hence led for such a great result. In fact, in all fairness its hard to state that Basaksehirspor did show much better performance compare to their opponents but their had managed convert chances into goals which has brought hence a win at the game with very impressive scoreline. There are reports that Galatasaray administration will have a meeting with Igor Tudor to discuss about this poor result where he continuation of him at the team might be opened.

During last week at the Super League as it remembered Galatasaray has won against Genclerbirligi with 5:1 scoreline, Tudor has decided to play Basaksehirspor game in similar tactic but it turned as big mistake from his side.
