What happened in Turkish football today? 20/01/2019


Basaksehirspor has beat Trabzonspor with very organised football.

Basaksehirspor has kept its 6 points advantage at the table as it has provided very organised game against Trabzonspor and has won game with 4:2 scoreline and can right now focus towards achieving its aim for league title.

Trabzonspor it needs to be noted has provided pretty fast-paced at the game with trying to provide pressure to Basaksehirspor but it did have lack of converting chances at the last touches. In fact, even when Trabzonspor was losing game with 2:0 and 3:1 scoreline with providing same stuff being focussed to game and aiming to create chances and converting them. But same couldnt not be stated with defence of the players as during all of the counter-attacks of the Basaksehirspor it has allowed an opponent to create chances which has been converted into goals. It was also important for Caleb Ekuban who has scored an own goal during start of the 2nd half, has found an goal after 1 minute and has shown good reaction to his own mistakes which wasnt really big mistake looking at the position. Trabzonspor as the side still needs many areas in its performance as was observed during today's game, but mentally it is still at right track and despite of being now 9 points behind Basaksehirspor it still can keep at the race for top and stay focussed which can show good rebound in upcoming games.

Basaksehirspor on other hand has shown very organised game with whole of the field playing patient and not with high tempo but this has been turned its advantage as it used its chances at counter-attacks and have found 4 goals with those strong reaction. Basaksehirpsor did send some strong messages towards it all opponents.

Trabzonspor needs to show some strong rebound after this loss and carry on aiming to provide a possitive football and get lessons from today's game mistakes.

Galatasaray has got 6:0 win without an attacker.

Galatasaray has managed to get an important win against Ankaragucu with confident scoreline of 6:0 at the game where it has come out without central forward player thanks to passive poor performance of opponents.

It was expected that Galatasaray will not have difficult task during Ankaragucu games mainly due of the factor that sadly Ankara side is going through very difficult period and in sense of morale, economically and physically it wasnt able to provide high level performance at such competitive game. However, it wasnt expected that Galatasaray would be able to found 6 goals as it came out without forward player, but both Henri Onyekuru and Sinan Gumus high level performance with creating and converting their chances and in fact their could have scored even more goals as game has been progressed. It needs to be stated that among coming out to the game with difficult condition, an early goal from Sinan Gumus has broke wholly Galatasaray and has helped them to dominate even more. This is well-deserved win for Galatasaray but it doesnt change fact that team needs to have forward player if it wants to have great 2nd half of the season.

Still, Galatasaray has gained an important motivation for upcoming games but next league game against Goztepe will not be as easy as this one for sure.

Bursaspor are favourites to win against Fenerbahce.

Following poor performance during Turkish Cup last 16 1st leg game against Umraniyespor,
Fenerbahce did show pretty poor performance in 1st game in 2019 but it would be aiming to improve drastically for Bursaspor game.

With taking account how Fenerbahce has performed during Umraniyespor game and also in overall this season, it could be stated that Bursaspor would be coming to game as favourite with an factor which would push forward Fenerbahce is only their name. With being located at 17th place among 18th teams, and despite of having reasonable well squad, it starts turning out that quite naturally Fenerbahce opponents are not being very scared from them and this could also affect to the game which would be taking place between sides tomorrow. Still, Fenerbahce are aware that this game is another opportunity for new beginning which their been looking for and would aim to get an important win while relegated zone teams tend to lose points this week.

Sadly, Fenerbahce are not coming out as favourite and to get this stress from performance as solution is on their hands for sure.
