What happened in Turkish football today? 05/12/2018


Galatasaray youth showed good result against Keciorengucu.

Galatasaray has got an away win during Turkish Cup 5th round game against Keciorengucu, team which is located 3 divisions below, with team which has been mainly consisted out of younger players of Istanbul club with 2:1 scoreline.

It needs to be stated that Galatasaray as been expected has been dominating game from start to an end with creating high number of the chances and this scoreline doesnt really provide full picture of the game. One of the crucial factors of the game meanwhile without doubt has been goal scored by Atalay Babacan who has found his 1st goal at senior level at his 1st game with great shot while being 18-year old player. With more than half of the side has been played with youth, it is certain that their had provided some good view for technical staff for the future of the club. Only downside which can be observed from game could be minumum win as 2:1 scoreline would provide some hope for Keciorengucu for 2nd leg game at Turk Telekom Arena. The goal which it has conceded has come from relaxation after Martin Linnes has scored at 50th minute as opponents has scored in next minute of the game.

Coming to the Keciorengucu, it needs to be admitted that even through it did play against opponent which has been mainly consisted of players that dont recieve lots of playing time during game it stillhas show good performance with side which competes at Champions League and would be coming to Istanbul in 2 weeks time with hope to go through quarter-finals.

Galatasaray with mainly youth players did show some good and attacking game but did get a minumum win and possibly for more secure it would come out with stronger side during 2nd leg.

Trabzonspor are expected to get to next stage despite of draw against Sivas Belediyespor.

Trabzonspor, even through didnt come out with its main squad, did get unexpected result during Turkish Cup 5th round 1st leg game against Sivas Belediyespor which has ended with 2:2 scoreline.
Those games does provide good opportunity to keep its motivation at high place among confidence, with all respect once again to opponents, with getting good results and also to get used to the field towards younger players who dont recieve much playing time. 2nd aspect without doubt was an important aspect during game as younger player did create number of the chances and did show some good performance against Sivas Belediyespor and would effect positively to their self-belief. However, stating that this scoreline would provide lots of the hope towards Sivas Belediyespor as a win against Trabzonspor, historical for sure, at 2nd leg would lead them to get to the next round. Trabzonspor needs to take this into account if it wants to win Turkish Cup during this season.

Stating that this result at 5th round 1st leg games can happen occassionally due of playing at unusual squad of inexperienced players and are not big threat as those teams can recover from this mistakes during 2nd leg as long as their wont repeat mistakes.

Fenerbahce would be seeking for confidence and motivation boost from Giresunspor game.

Fenerbahce is going to start its Turkish Cup campaign against Giresunspor during 5th round 1st leg at the tournament which to some seen as main target of team taking account its poor performance of the season.

Fenerbahce would be expected to come out with some youth players at the game in its own stadium with a mix of some starting 11 to keep their momentum as team would be getting to last 3 games at the league among Europa League and 2nd leg game until mid-season break. It needs to be remembered that Fenerbahce supporters will not be present at the game during of the last season ban which team has recieved during last season after scandalous Besiktas game at Turkish Cup. Fenerbahce still would be coming out as strong favourite but if things will not be going as their planned, their would not get support from their fans, which Giresunspor without doubt could be seen as good opportunity. To prevent that, best tactic could be for Fenerbahce to find an early goal as it could affect negatively to motivation and focus of opponent.

Fenerbahce does need urgently confidence and motivation with Giresunspor game could be great opportunity to get this for last games during this season.
