What happened in Turkish football today? 26/11/2018


Trabzonspor has dominated game against Fenerbahce.

Trabzonspor has shown one of its most-attacking games during recent seasons and without doubt one of the best performance against Fenerbahce in recent years which has led them to win game with 2:1 scoreline even through it could have ended with bigger scoreline if wasnt for Harun Tekin.

This game has been an important and crucial one for both sides due of their position at the league but it does look that side which has shown high concentration to the game and awareness of seriousness of game has been Black Sea side. Among providing high tempo game against Fenerbahce, it has also provided at very organised performance and to some extend each attack has been effective and could have ended with an goal to Fenerbahce goal. However, with great performance by Fenerbahce goalkeeper Harun Tekin, who also has saved penalty kick during game, Trabzonspor didnt manage to win game with bigger scoreline. One of the positive aspects that this missed penalty which has come before goals of Trabzonspor, didnt let them lose concentration and showing great performance as game progressed. It was also important for side to show forward-seeking effective game without its leading attacker Burak Yilmaz and with him being taken out of squad and likely to leave mid-season, has shown sign that it can show good performance.

One of the negative aspects at Trabzonspor was only relaxation towards end of game which could cost them 2 points as Fenerbahce has shown attacking game after Michael Frey has made scoreline 2:1.

Fenerbahce  has shown similar game which it showed with Cocu.

On other side, Fenerbahce has shown one of its worst performances during last seasons against Trabzonspor and apart of goalkeeper Harun Tekin the players has hardly showed high level performance which also includes Mathieu Valbuena who was on rise during last games.

With Erwin Koeman coming to high position at the side, Fenerbahce has started showing promising performance during last 3 games but during Trabzonspor game it has started similar mistakes which was done with Cocu without being able to control ball and also showing attacking style game, despite of having some chances during game. Fenerbahce caretaker coach Erwin Koeman has stated himself that Trabzonspor has deserved to make scoreline as 3:0 scoreline, which is also a compliment towards opponent, has also been direct criticism towards team's performance during yesterday's game. Fenerbahce needs to urgently find out what it is done during this game as it would be coming to an important game against Dinamo Zagreb to keep chance for ending its group at Europa League at top position and also another important game against in-form game against Kasimpasa.

So far, main dissapoinment during Trabzonspor game and overall season has been Islam Slimani for not being able to convert high amount of the chances during game.

Ali Durust has changed his mind about resignation

TFF administrator Ali Durust who has announced his resignation on 24th November, following Super League 13th week game between Galatasaray and Konyaspor penalty arguments, has announced that he has changed his mind.

This decision has been seen as big surprise, even more than his resignation, as by many people including Galatasaray fans this resignation has been seen as right decision. Ali Durust has stated that this decision has been come from warm outcomes and criticism he has recieved following game. It is very likely that TFF CEO Yildiirm Demiroren among others administrators has had conversation with Durust which led him to change his mind and also his personal calm evaluation of the situation. What this announcement does show that even through media doesnt provide much information, possible to lack of public information, their are some activity taking place at TFF during the day with everyone awaiting also decision about referees of the game following checking VAR videos date and conversation between referees.

However, with Ali Durust doing some successful work with Galatasaray and also for TFF in long run this decision for Durust to stay at position might be advantage for TFF and Turkish football in general.
