Besiktas has improved as game progressed against Fenerbahce
Besiktas has managed to win an important game at its home ground against in-form opponent Fenerbahce with 3:1 scoreline and despite of providing bad start for the game it has dominated game after 20th minute.
In fact, the game could be seen in the way that Fenerbahce has started game in good form while Besiktas has been under its performance however things has changed as game progressed with Besiktas dominating whole field while Fenerbahce was playing misorganised game at the end of the game. It needs to be stated that role of Senol Gunes for this result has been played an important role as changes during the game has led for Besiktas to control game and in addition to that Fenerbahce style of play has allowed Besiktas to make its changes more effective with their performance. Without doubt main star of the game has been Ricardo Quaresma with his two goals scored and also overall performance. Besiktas would now seek to repeat this performance without doubt again during Turkish Cup semi-final 1st leg game on 1st March.
Besiktas did find an important win which has put them inside league title race but with this result it has also made league more exciting as it has returned into fight for title among 4 teams even through Galatasaray and Basaksehirspor would be glad with this result.
While Aykut Kocaman didnt have any alternatives for Senol Gunes changes
In other hand, Fenerbahce has provided a very dominant start and has shown that their had prepared to game in much better compare to their opponents with tactically but as things has been changed and Senol Gunes introduced changes, Aykut Kocaman has lost control of the game.
Prior to game, even through it would be normal for Fenerbahce to lose game, it was expected for them to show decent performance due of better morale and also great performance lately and also dominance at derby games in recent pasts. However, even through it did achieve to show this aspects in start of the game, after 20th minute it start losing control of ball, game and also possibly psychological focus which has led them to make simple mistakes and not control ball anymore. This performance did provide some worrying images and towards end it has lost all control of the game. It is clear that Aykut Kocaman didnt have much alternatives and strangely has stated that an early goal did more harm to them after game. Meanwhile, Fernandao goal was an offside by 79 cm which has also been admitted by Aykut Kocaman after game.
Again, Fenerbahce didnt lose its position at the title race and with 11 weeks left until end of the season and same points with Besiktas their would be many turns until end and hence both sides have equal chances for league title. But right now Fenerbahce would aim for revenge at Turkish Cup tie.
Akhisarspor would be seeking for advantage scoreline against Galatasaray at 1st leg.
Turkish Cup is coming to most crucial and also exciting stages, as both Galatasaray and Akhisarspor during Turkish Cup semi-final 1st leg game would be looking for an advantage scoreline to get to the final stage of the tournament.
Galatasaray as expected would be coming out as favourite even through its not that straight forward as it would be playing its game away and its form at away games also been present at Turkish Cup games. Taking account that, Akhisarspor are aware that their are one step closer for final it would aim to provide big surprise both at 1st leg and also at whole tie. Without doubt Akhisarspor would come out with different motivation for game and would playing much more attacking game. Still, Galatasaray with quality factor would aim for a win without doubt as their are one step closer for cup and are expected to come out first time with strong squad at Turkish Cup this season.
It would be interesting how team would compete at away game as Akhisarspor aware of this issue and also having opportunity for final would respond for the game.
