What happened in Turkish football today? 25/10/2018


Besiktas didnt provide any satisfying performance against Genk

Besiktas has provided poor performance during Europa League Group I 3rd week game against Genk as it has lost to their opponents with 4:2 scoreline at the home ground and has provided one of the worst performances at the home ground for long time.

It needs to be admitted that during game Besiktas has failed to provide any upper hand during game allowing Genk to control game as their wished to and as time passed Belgian side has become much more confident for game. With coming out only with 1 win so far and having high aims for knockout stage, Besiktas didnt provide performance which Turkish and European fans has been seeing from team during memorable past season. Due of this factor, Besiktas supporters which tend to be behind the team in all circumstances has shown strong protest towards side which needs to be stated has been unusual for this behaviour. In fact, Besiktas has found goal when goal was 2:0 with Vagner Love could be seen as good opportunity for comeback for the side but with Genk finding two other goals following game has led them to find goals and get confident win towards last minute of the game. It needs to be stated that Besiktas has lost its pasison which was seen from side in previous years which does show that team does have issues inside.

Genk meanwhile did provide great performance on the day sight as it has gotten into upper hand as game has been going with Samata taking upper hand of the game with finding crucial two goals. Genk currently leader of the group and are ones to lose during last 3 games.

Besiktas on other hand needs to identify what went wrong during last games especially including as team is way behind of the level of performance which would been expected from them.

Fenerbahce has drawn game after 2:0 scoreline but still team not performing at level which would be expected from them. 

Fenerbahce did manage to show comeback during Europa League 3rd week game at Group D against as it was losing 2:0 to Anderlecht as it has drawn with 2:2 scoreline but it still has provided pretty poor performance as today's performance would certainly would made both technical stuff and fans unhappy.

Fenerbahce has provided pretty poor performance during today's game apart between of 53rd and 57th minute when it has found 2 goals back to back but still didnt get good fast tempo especially at 1st half. It was visible from today game that on-going issue has been carried  on at the team such as not being able to create stating that Anderlecht didnt provide very good high level performance and Fenerbahce could get a win if it could raise tempo of the game. Fenerbahce head coach Phillip Cocu and supporters would make happy that Fenerbahce did show some good comeback performance during 2nd half and finding 2 goals but even after that Fenerbahce didnt show much attempt to get scoreline into winning the  game with most likely for Cocu to look for a win. Fenerbahce could be still standing at 2nd place and does have some advantage to get out from group stage to knockout stage but it did lose an opportunity to get a win and fight for top position as Dinamo Zagreb playing with 100% record and currently having 5 points difference with 3 games left at the league. It needs to be noted that Frey did show some good performance as game progressed and scored and provided assist which very likely would attend his motivation for upcoming games.

Anderlecht despite of winning game for 2:0 would certainly be dissapointed with result and did provide good game, however with looking how Anderlecht has performed at quality sense Fenerbahce could have won game if it shown much better performance.

Fenerbahce would be happy to show comeback from 2:0 and find 2 goals and keep its chances to get to the knockout stage but Fenerbahce could have won this game so in performance wise it still need to improve a lot to improve performance both domestically and Europe.

Akhisarspor has lost to Sevilla with 6:0 scoreline.

Europa League Group J favourites has provided dominant game against Akhisarspor as it has managed to win game with 6:0 scoreline in Spain and has shown entire dominance of the game meanwhile struggling Akhisarspor in overall couldnt respond to this level of game.

Akhisarspor has been stated beforehand during games of Krasnodar and Standard Liege that even through their didnt win those games, their had shown some positive football and has created some chances during of the game. However, with huge differences between sides it was expected for Akhisarspor has very difficult game against Sevilla and their couldnt provide too much open game and could only be praised for not being scared. Akhisarspor has been poor during today's game and didnt provide any worry for Spanish side. It needs to be stated that that Akhisarspor main plus of the game to get such experience to play against top team and be able to identify its level of performance into level of European football rather than among Turkish teams and realise its weaknesses in hard way from Spanish side.

As been mentioned, Sevilla did come out to the game as strong favourite and it has got result according to that and managed to also get control of the group finding for group leaders as Sevilla are among main favourites to win Europa League this season.
