What happened in Turkish football today? 24/12/2017
Fatih Terim return to his home has been ended with confident win against Goztepe
4th return of Galatasaray head coach Fatih Terim to his home ground has ended up being with a win against Goztepe with 3:1 scoreline even through the changes of the team didnt been felt as team did provide good football at its home games with Igor Tudor also.
But it does need to be stated that even through Galatasaray didnt start game in a great way it has improved as game carried on and has ended up being with 3 very beautiful goals by the team which certainly has come from motivational boost to the team and its supporters. The factor that Terim which has risen motivation to all supporters and players did provide arleady hard period for Goztepe even through their have found good goals during game. What was visible during today's game from Galatasaray that it has also focussed into an attacking game especially after conceding goal. Meanwhile, among Bursaspor player Aziz Behich, Maicon has scored 5th goal and becoming most goalscoring defender at the Super League and also around European football. Galatasaray does give some positive signs for 2nd half for certain.
Goztepe did start game in strong self-belief at the game and did provide an attacking football but couldnt provide same tempo as Galatasaray as has raised tempo. But it needs to be stated that their had shown good performance during today's game and have shown why their in title race.
Galatasaray has provided great start with its returned Emperor head coach Fatih Terim and with providing some changes in mid-season transfer window would be able to make some crucial changes for himself in that period.
Trabzonspor didnt manage to win Karabukspor despite having whole control of game.
Trabzonspor has experienced their 1st loss of points as it has drawn in surprising manner against last-placed team Karabukspor with 1:1 scoreline during Super League 1st half last week and has joined top teams which have lost a game in this weekend.
It needs to be stated that Trabzonspor did provide pretty great attacking football creating high number of chances for most part of the game having recieved very good chances during whole game especially with last minute of Jose Sosa who didnt manage to find goals. Without doubt with Fenerbahce and Besiktas losing points in this weekend, Trabzonspor has come out to win game and even through it let them to play an attacking football it was also main reason for it playing fast game without much organised and instead showing rushed game. Stating that it of course has a risk to lose game altogether as it was losing game with 1:0 scoreline. Still, with how it performed Trabzonspor head coach Riza Calimbay has reasons to be satisfied as the team has provided an attacking focussed game creating team which wanted to win.
Karabukspor did manage to survive from such an attacking game from Trabzonspor and did gain high amount of motivation as it was being in very bad position at the table and this draw would provide some hope for 2nd half where it needs to do many things to stay at the league.
Trabzonspor didnt manage to win 6th game back-to-back but its spirit did provide view that team is going into right direction right now.
Fenerbahce still has winning spirit despite losing 2 points against Konyaspor.
In similar manner as Trabzonspor today, Fenerbahce has ended its 5th game winning streak as it has drawn with Konyaspor with 1:1 scoreline and even through did get leaderhsip for short while did lose an important 2 points at league where right now every point is important.
Fenerbahce didnt provide a good performance during 1st half and it needs to be admitted that Konyaspor were knowing pretty well Aykut Kocaman as he coached them and this knwoledge of what kind of game he plays has led them to control game. The goal which was conceded from very simple mistake of Mauricio Isla at 2nd half has woke up Fenerbahce as their found equalisier and did find high number of the chances after scoring goal but were unlucky and also for Fernandao and Valbuena missing such an important chances,and positive thing was that team has shown strong winning spirit but it wasnt enough for them to win game. Fenerbahce still would be going to mid-season break to work on how it can make 17 out of 17 once again at 2nd half and get league title.
Fenerbahce did lose important 2 points but it still finds itself to be strong title contenders for 2nd half of season and would be looking forward for next 17 games.
