What happened in Turkish football today? 17/03/2019


Galatasaray has shown great comeback against Bursaspor. 

Galatasaray has shown great comeback during Super League 26th week game against Bursaspor from 2:0 and has won game with 3:2 scoreline and has reduced point difference with league leaders to 6 points and found themselves in pretty good position to fight for league title.

With Galatasaray not being able to provide great performance during 1st half of the game and not being able to create many chances and didnt provide much controllable game and has got behind with 2:0 scoreline. However, Galatasaray player Badou Ndiaye goal at the last minute of the 1st half has provided start of great comeback and also motivation and confidence for 2nd half. With gaining this motivation it has also managed to turn around game and did provide performance which would be suitable for a team which was fighting for league title especially taking account goal which was scored by Sofiane Feghouli. Even through poor performance of 1st half would not be expectable at all for team to fight for league title especially when their main opponents has lost points but turning back game needs to be praised and has shown once again that Galatasaray doesnt consider to give its league title to Basaksehirspor easily.

Coming to Bursaspor, it has started game in good manner and did look like that it would be providing great game against Galatasaray as their would need to get further from relegation zone in sense of points but has found itself again 1 point from dropzone. One of the mistakes of Bursaspor has been used to use all of its energy to this game for sure.

Galatasaray has won very important game despite of getting behind with 2 goals and has now entered to national team break+Turkish local election with high motivation and confidence with reducing point difference to 6 points with leaders.

Basaksehirspor has got a point with luck against Kayserispor. 

Basaksehirspor penalty goal from Emmanuel Adebayor at the last minute hs gained an important 1 point at the game where whatever side has been doing it didnt manage to find a winning goal and regarding giving effort in defence, Kayserispor did lose 2 points.

It needs to be mentioned that Basaksehirspor has provided one of the most stressful games during this season which to some amount has been turned with Edin Visca having high amount of the chances with some moments being battle with him and Kayserispor goalkeeper Lung. Basaksehirspor did look to be side which has done everything to find an important points with getting an important win for themselves at getting closer for title at the end of the season. One of the mistakes by head coach Abdullah Avci at giving too much trust towards Edin Visca has been amount one of the mistakes as Visca has been very unlucky at it needed to find other tactics. Basaksehirspor in all respect of all of them and despite of playing to some extend an effective game, has got a win with a luck from penalty kick following hand ball from Kayserispor player. Meanwhile, for number of weeks during this season we had mentioned that Basaksehirspor would play one of the most stressful games and it almost lost this game. It would recieve much more in last 8 games and this game should provide valuable lesson to them.

Kayserispor meanwhile has provided very strong performance as its win would help them to get further from relegation zone and quite rightfully after finding goal their went into defence. Meanwhile, despite of  conceding penalty, Lung has ended being player of the game with an incredible saves against Edin Visca.

Basaksehirspor has got an important point at the game where it almost lost all 3 points and has kept to some extend an advantage at the standings but it needs to get an important lesson from today's game.

Besiktas enters to national team break with strong confidence.

Burak Yilmaz goal at the start of the 2nd half has become key moment of the chances as Besiktas has managed to win Goztepe during Super League 26th week despite of team providing pretty ineffective game.

To some extend, it needs to be stated that Besiktas has been lucky for Goztepe to mainly focus at the defensive game due of their positions at the standings which has allowed Istanbul giant to get an important win with providing poor performance. With his great header Burak Yilmaz has also shown himself that he is star of the team and aims to provide high level performance until end of the season, doing his best that side would get into Champions League spot at the end of the season. Besiktas meanwhile compare to other side would be going to the international team+Turkish local election break as most disadvantage as compare to other clubs its head coach would spend 1 week with Turkish National Team. Still, it was important for Besiktas to enter to this national team break with back-to-back wins and regain confidence and motivation for last 8 games after league will be resumed in April.

Burak Yilmaz goal to some extend has also prevented for potential crises which team could have during national team break but its things will not be easy and still needs to work hard during this long break.

Yeni Malatyaspor 3:1 Ankaragucu
