What happened in Turkish football today? 05/03/2018


Besiktas has send strong message to league leaders with winning Trabzonspor. 

Besiktas has managed to win one of its most important games during this season as it managed to beat Trabzonspor with 2:0 scoreline and hence has send strong message to everyone among Basaksehirspor and Galatasaray that it is right into title race with huge help of Ryan Babel.

Taking account that Besiktas had very difficult week with meeting against Fenerbahce twice, it had some difficult time physically and didnt provide its best game but still managed to provide more dominant game and forward seeking compare to Trabzonspor. Two main heros for such a win is Ryan Babel but it needs to be also acknowledge that Alvaro Negredo has provide 2 assists towards him.
Therefore, even through Negredo didnt manage to provide goals he is playing huge role with his assists which is also important role for an attacker. Therefore, Besiktas didnt provide dominant football which was due of physical tiredness but has managed to prevent Trabzonspor to get control of the game even through their performance also has been poor by itself. Still Besiktas is sending strong messages towards league leaders right now.

Trabzonspor wasnt able to provide strong opposition towards Besiktas during this game which does show that team is not capable to get into league title both at the situation at the table but even more importantly with its performance. Taking account that Besiktas didnt provide its best performance due of its form, Trabzonspor didnt manage to use this into advantage and once again has shown that without Burak Yilmaz it does have strong issue wit finding goals and chances. Still, Trabzonspor which among not being able to be at the title race recent race didnt compete at Europe at all and right now it has still chance to get into Europa League for next season during next 10 games of the season.

With following result Besiktas has got into right into title race with its performance as it was stated that if its out from Champions League it can raise its performance at the league and this has become true right now as team is almost coming to the 2nd leg against Bayern Munich for prestige.

Fenerbahce has lost crucial 3 points against Akhisarspor and damage its league title chances.

Fenerbahce has lost an important 3 points for its league title race against Akhisarspor with losing 3:2 during Super League 24th week game as we are entering to the crucial weeks and now finds itself 6 points behind league leaders Galatasaray and Basaksehirspor.

Without doubt in-tense game it has played against Besiktas 3 days before during Turkish Cup semi-final 1st leg game did affect to the game but still the factor of importance of the game should have provided strength for such crucial game where it wasnt able to control game at all even through it did have high possession of ball. With Akhisarspor also coming at great form at the team has used opponent tiredness to its advantage and has found 3 goals which has provided win to them. One of the worrying and dissapointing statistics which was present during this season is also factor that Fenerbahce didnt manage to win games where it has left behind,with losing 4 and drawing 5, which is by itself is pretty worrying statistic for the team which is fighting for league title.

With this being unpredictable season stating that Fenerbahce has lost its chance for league title to null would be wrong but with 10 games left it is hard to expect for high number of the mistakes from their opponents above as among winning games its need to wait for other results turn towards them.

Konyaspor has appointed Sergen Yalcin after sacking Mehmet Ozdilek. 

Another team which has changed its head coach during this season has been Konyaspor as it has sacked Mehmet Ozdilek following loss towards against Yeni Maltayaspor and in same day has appointed Sergen Yalcin.

It needs to be stated that Konyaspor with its coach Mehmet Ozdilek didnt approve much with its performance as it still finds itself right into the relegation mess and with 10 games left administrative side of the team has realised that some crucial changes needed to be made to solve this issue. Their newly-elected head coach Sergen Yalcin has been known before hand to be able to solve an issue with teams almost being relegated and would be aiming to improve performance of the team starting with game against Galatasaray on 11th March, aiming at least to regain motivation and focus for the team for rest of the season. With Konyaspor not being very bad, Yalcin does have potential to solve this issue and provide much needed motivation.

The would show how much Yalcin would achieve this but as been stated he did achieve to keep teams who are in bottom at league in previous seasons.

Trabzonspor 0:2 Besiktas
