What happened in Turkish football today? 21/02/2018


Domagoj Vida has made role for game ended 5:0 but it didnt prevent Bayern Munich to win game.

As been stated beforehand at this blog, to expect good results from Champions League last 16 1st leg at Allianz Arena against Bayern Munich would be too much for Besiktas and this scoreline, sadly, should not be treated as huge surprise.

Still, it needs to be admitted that red card of Domagoj Vida which was actually due of very big mistake at such game from Atiba Hutchinson has played an important role of the result. Of course, and this blog underlines that, Bayern Munich would still very likely to win game with equal squads but it could been ended with more reasonably scoreline. Coming to the game, it could be seen from 1st half performance that Besiktas has played well and its true that it has played brave football but its need to be admitted that Bayern Munich has been very poor also. Factor of red card and 3rd goal during 2nd half has played an important role of the game as Besiktas who has lost concentration and tiredness start showing itself has led Bayern Munich to get game into their hand and certainly ending this tie and openning its way for quarter-final stage. 

The best for Besiktas can do is to come at its home ground, at the game which could be filled with their fans, even through reaction of Besiktas fans for 2nd leg could be questionable in sense of coming to games and being aware it has nothing to lose try at least to get some points for country rating and itself. 

Mehmet Aytekin would aim to save team from bankruptcy.

Mehmet Aytekin has been selected as Karabukspor new CEO as he would have very difficult job at the club which is in incredibly poor economical condition and also are at very poor position at the table.

Karabukspor is right now having 12 point difference with closest safety area team Antalyaspor and this point difference is expected to be become wider unless some surprising factor will not take place and it wont start winning back-to-back. Even through some criticism of administration at the team could be criticised, it will not be fair to criticise a lot of its performance as its damaged team right now and have some issues. As Mehmet Aytekin become CEO, he has made statement that his main aim is to provide some cash injection to the team and prevent them get bankrupted, which by itself shows seriousness of the team right now. Without doubt decision of Mehmet Aytekin to become CEO of such club, which noone would like to save, factor of being sole candidate shows that shows his connection to the city and team.

Even through its hard to state Karabukspor one of the initial clubs of the country, its still has some good spells in its period including at Super League and it would be saddened for sure to see this club to dissapear and hence this saving process is very important for team.

Benfica aims to make good money if its sells Talisca to Besiktas. 

Even through transfer window has been officially closed in Turkey and around Europe, there is still on-going issue about Besiktas -loaned Anderson Talisca who is loaned from Benfica at the country as both team and player want him to stay at club.

Benfica right now seems to be agreed that Talisca would be staying in Benfica but aiming try to make an agreement which monetary would make them hand into stronghand as he has become one of the key players at the team who without doubt has recieved lots of focus around Europe with both his performance at Super League and Champions League. It is expected for Benfica to provide an offer with high amount of cash and also % share of next transfer as club rightfully aware that he could be sold for good cash from Besiktas whenever it happens. With transfer fee being reasonable for Besiktas it would be also expected for them to make such deal.

With providing strong pressure to Benfica both from player and club it is aware that Portuguese side has come into turns that he would stay here but it would be aiming to make good cash, and here is where an agreement might not made easily.
