Fenerbahce has shown top performance against Adana Demirspor.
Fenerbahce has carried on trend at Turkish Cup 5th round 1st leg games of big "4" teams of the clubs as it has won against Adana Demirspor where possibly apart of 1st 20 minutes it has dominated game in high level and has shown high level focus at the game.
Even through as it was stated several times during this Turkish Cup 5th round overview and previous at our blog on those days it is hard to put Adana Demirspor as serious opponent to Fenerbahce, to all respect to them, and are not opponent as reference point for Fenerbahce but it was important for them to get such an important win for its target to end calendar year of 2017 at the high note. One of the top players and main role for today's win has been Alper Potuk who has provided hat-trick at the game and has been very hungry for finding goals and to win game. In fact, today's squad has shown very good concentration towards game showing during whole game that it has wanted to win game taking account that Adana Demirspor especially in start of the game has shown with its performance that it did come to Istanbul to win game. Fenerbahce has shown good concentration and does show that team is getting into right mood for upcoming games including against Kasimpasa at Super League.
Adana Demirspor has provided some willingness to compete with Fenerbahce at the start of the game but quality factor has become visible as did most of the games during Super League teams against its lower divisions opponents. Adana Demirspor still got valuable experience at this 1st leg and was unlucky that Fenerbahce wanted to win today a lot.
Fenerbahce has also surely set its ticket for last 16 to the Turkish Cup and would now also focus into Super League into upcoming weeks especially this weekend when its main opponents playing this week.
Besiktas has recieved too comfortable win against Manisaspor at Turkish Cup.
Besiktas has started this season Turkish Cup campaign with a very comfortable win against
Manisaspor during 5th round 1st leg with eye-catching 9:0 win at the empty stadium where Jeremain Lens and Negredo has dominated game from start to end.
It expected for Besiktas to get an comfortable win during this game as it was having very good season and was playing against team which was in division below them and in addition is having very bad season so far. Therefore, Besiktas which was coming out to gain high level of motivation prior to this week derby game against Galatasaray has provided an attacking game against them with finding 9 goals without many doubt. It needs to be mentioned that by some this scoreline led for some criticism towards Besiktas as their had shown such game against poor conditioned opponent. Of course, this could be taking at different stance either to show high level performance or get into economical football after one point showing some envy to the point. It needs to be stated that with Besiktas with substitutes and also Manisaspor, sadly, not being at the level of Super League its hard to state that Besiktas would hence come out at derby game as more favourite solely from this game but certainly as team it would in high motivation.
With this scoreline it is visible that 2nd leg game which would be played after 2 weeks is game for purely formality and in fact Besiktas might even play wholely with reserve team with such scoreline.
Galatasaray has won Sivas Belediyespor with economical football.
Galatasaray as was expected in similar manner did recieve pretty comfortable result during Turkish Cup 5th round 1st leg game against 3rd division team Sivas Belediyespor with 5:1 scoreline even through it did take them 64 minutes to find 2nd goal.
Galatasaray during 1st half didnt manage to provide fast-game which has been also been noted by team head coach Igor Tudor and has to some extend put game into risking moments with leading 1:0 scoreline but to some extend this could be also with realisation that their would be able to win game easily or at worst whole tie as became clear as it has found 4 goals in last 20 minutes even through it also has managed to concede 1. It did play an economical football against weak opponents which to some extend has allowed some players, who might get some playing time against Besiktas not to get tired too much. Galatasaray in similar manner needed this comfortable win prior to Besiktas and would now focus into that game entirely and also aim to enter mid-season break with high motivation and performance. Meanwhile, Yasin Oztekin following good performance against Alanyaspor at the league has carried on top performance at the Turkish Cup finding 2 goals and being one of the most active players of the field.
Right now Galatasaray would focus against Besiktas which would be able to identify the aims and psychology at the league until mid-season break.
