What happened in Turkish football today? 15/09/2018


Besiktas has got an important win against Yeni Malatyaspor with both teams giving their all during 2nd half. 

Besiktas has managed to beat Yeni Malatyaspor during Super League 5th week game with 2:1 scoreline at the game which had one of the most exciting 2nd halves of this season so far with both sides giving their best to win game.

In fact, 1st half has been played with slow tempo with only shot on- target during 45 minutes which has come from Besiktas player which in fact did start game in pretty poor way and couldnt find right tempo and chances. However, it has managed to raise performance level and tempo during 2nd half with finding goal on 52nd minute from Pepe who has scored 3rd goal this season from corner kicks and right now being main goalscorer of the team. Meanwhile, one of negative points of the game would be red card of the Garry Medel who has recieved 2 yellow cards and didnt only let Besiktas to play last 15 minutes with 10-men but also means that he would be absent for next week game against Fenerbahce. Still, Besiktas after Medel red card has found another goal with help of Ryan Babel which goal as it become later did bring this 3 points. Still with having one less man in the end of 2nd half and Yeni Malatyaspor finding goal it had pretty nervous defensive game and has managed to get an important game as it did come out to must win to keep themselves close to top of the table and get motivation for games to be played during next 8 days.

Yeni Malatyaspor meanwhile has shown pretty good organised football and didnt go much defending against Besiktas especially during 2nd half and has played an important role for this game to be played in full excitement. Even if having extra men but losing 2:0 at away game it was important for them to provide this spirit against Besiktas.

Besiktas has got an important win against Yeni Malatyaspor thanks to the goals from Pepe and Ryan Babel and has provided tactically good performance and would now look forward for Europa League game against Sarpsborg 08.

Galatasaray has dominated game during 2nd half performance.

Galatasaray has shown great dominating game during 2nd half of the Super League 5th week game against Kasimpasa and has regained its leadership at the table prior to Lokomotiv Moscow with 4:1 scoreline.

Galatasaray has shown once again game of two halves as it wasnt very competitive during 1st half without creating any chances and Kasimpasa has shown better performance and thats including that their opponents didnt show great game themselves. However, 55th minute of the game has become turning point as Eren Derdiyok goal has led for Galatasaray to provide much faster game which turned into goals as game progressed and Garry Rodrigues especially has shown great game with finding two high quality and has provided trust to its supporters. Meanwhile, another star of the game has been 18-year old defender Okan Kozak who has shown great game without much mistakes apart of penalty decision which was mainly of timing mistake. Still, Galatasaray has got an important motivation prior to Champions League game on 18th September.

Galatasaray has got confident win with its high-level performance in 2nd half but it is unclear if it would be enough for Champions League level.

Fenerbahce would aim to win and improve performance against Konyaspor.

Fenerbahce would be aiming to end its unlucky period of losing points for last 3 weeks games out of 4 games, and after national team break would be aiming to have new beginning against Konyaspor.

Therefore, Fenerbahce would be coming out with total different motivation to the game with head coach Phillip Cocu likely to provide much more time for newly-signed player who have joined team towards end of the transfer window. Without doubt, team has provided intense training during national team break with sometimes having 2 training sessions in one day and hence has become closer to show much better performance. Its needless to say that this game would be must win for Fenerbahce and everyone is aware of that as with loss it would end 5 week period only with 3 points and would have crucial games next week at Europa League against Dinamo Zagreb and after derby game against Besiktas. Hence, it would be coming out with two aims against Konyaspor which is to show much better performance and also win game to keep its aims for fighting top positions in upcoming weeks.

Hence, team would come out only with an aim to win game and also to improve its performance and regain selfconfidence and get closer to the ideal tactical game which Cocu seeks for from start of the season.
