Fenerbahce has shown one of the memorable comebacks at the derbies in 2nd half against Besiktas.
Turkish Super League 23rd week game between Besiktas and Fenerbahce has shown once again has shown incredible derby game between each other as Besiktas has dominated game during whole 1st half but Fenerbahce has managed to turn around game during 2nd half and at some point being closer for a victory.
As it was stated beforehand, Besiktas did come out to the game as stronger favourite both to the recent result and also very poor and dissapointing season of Fenerbahce. This factor has been case during whole 1st half, where Besiktas has dominated game with creating chances and not allowing their opponents to get into positions as game has been progressing for 45 minutes. With Besiktas showing strong attacking game at the front it has found 2 goals in 1st 20 minutes and has shown an image that it might even dominate game and go for a big difference as it has dominated game and didnt allow Fenerbahce to create any chances while Fenerbahce themselves didnt create much changes and has failed to dominate game. However, Besiktas with conceding goal on 55th minute from Miha Zajc, and afterwards from Sadik Ciftpinar from corner has lost all its control of the game and Fenerbahce has began to create many chances. One of the possibilities of Besiktas has been starting 2nd half with a belief that it has won game arleady and with this focus it has allowed Fenerbahce to comeback to the game and almost has lost game.
In other hand, Fenerbahce has shown similar performance which was presented by Liverpool during Champions League final of 2005, which incidently took place in Istanbul, as it has managed to turn around game after very poor 1st half and with finding goal with Miha Zajc has turned around game. This blog in normal circumstances would state that this game would been turning point for Fenerbahce, but it has been stated several times during this season and hence time would show if team would improve its performance. Even through Fenerbahce has shown one of its poor performances at derby game during 1st half, its comeback during 2nd half deserves all the praise as players did come out to 2nd half with strong belief that it could have turn around game. Meanwhile, this 1 point has been strong advantage for Fenerbahce as it aims to stay at the Super League and every point is important, while loss of 2 points been bad news for Besiktas as it led for team to be 10 points behind leaders Basaksehirspor. Still, Fenerbahce needs to find all its strong strenghts which it has shown during 2nd half and aim to show similar performance for rest of the season.
At short without doubt this game would be one to be remembered as Fenerbahce has managed to show one of the memorable comebacks at the derbies in recent history and this draw would provide strong motivation and confidence for upcoming games, but it needs to turn this factors into performance wise also.
Galatasaray has stayed focussed for its aim to win against Akhisarspor whole game.
Galatasaray player Kostas Mitroglou goal at the last minute against Akhisarspor during Super League 23rd week game didnt only let team to win game but also kept their chances for league title arrive strongly and has provided strong message to Basaksehirspor at title race.
It needs to be noted that Akhisarspor during whole game has provided strong and organised defensive game as being at last place getting 1 point against side which is fighting for league title could be an important addition for them both to stay at league and also for confidence. Galatasaray meanwhile has provided a very strong attacking game with keep looking for a chance to find winning goal and has tried everything and as it looked that it would end game with loss of 2 points, unexpected mistake from Akhisarspor goalkeeper Milan Lukac has led Kostas Mitroglou to find winning goal. In fact, this goal could provide also individually confidence and motivation boost as this goal would allow him to provide much more effective game in upcoming weeks. It was important to stay focussed and set to task during whole game and it did provide an image that it would be fighting for league title until last moment as it has once again reduced point difference with Basaksehirspor to 6 points. With 11 games left at the league and many clubs having an important games both at top and bottom half of the table, it could be stated that Galatasaray would have similar games upcoming game.
Galatasaray, especially at home games, has always managed to stay within game both mentally and physically and this factor would be crucial for rest of the season as it became clear yesterday.
Trabzonspor would aim to beat Umraniyespor as it sees Turkish Cup as main priority.
Trabzonspor, with getting further for league title and also uncertainty of Europa League spot, would provide bigger aim for Turkish Cup from nowon and it would be aiming to get a win against Umraniyespor during quarter-final 2nd leg game.
Trabzonspor it needs to be mentioned has got an expected result during 1st leg game as it has got goalless draw at its home ground and taking account that Umraniyespor in previous round has got through Fenerbahce, it would be having high self-belief but would be playing with respect to an opponent. Therefore, Trabzonspor should be aware that their playing with difficult opponent even if their one division lower than them, and need to give respect if it wants to get to the semi-final stage. Its important for Trabzonspor to provide high focus to the Turkish Cup if it wants to end season with cup as it is being one of the main favourites to win competition among Galatasaray. It would be expected due of scoreline and also Turkish Cup becoming even higher, it would come out with more ideal starting 11 compare to 1st leg and aim to get to next stage.
Trabzonspor are coming out as favourites for sure, but Umraniyespor would be aiming to get another surprise after beating Fenerbahce on previous round and show great performance of Turkish Cup.
