Galatasaray didnt provide enough performance to get win against Erzurumspor.
Galatasaray has lost an important 2 points for its title race as it has drawn against Erzurumspor who is currently is located at 17th place and also urgently needed 3 points as sides met during Super League 24th week.
It needs to be noted that Galatasaray didnt manage to provide good entrance to the game without showing too much organised game and hence has allowed Erzurumspor to provide much more effective and also found an early goal after 18th minute. Following that goal, Galatasaray also has failed to provide right reaction and has continued to provide good performance which more importantly didnt have much to do with cold weather but more like due of lack of concentration. It needs to be admitted however that Galatasaray did show some improvement and has provided better performance and in fact did find a goal from Younes Belhanda, but it has failed to provide strong performance and didnt create many chances. It needs to be stated that Galatasaray did come out to the game to win it and their was good-will performance from players, but it wasnt enough to get one of toughest away game regardless of fact that Erzurumspor is located at 17th place with 22 points. Galatasaray from now on needs to win games for last 10 weeks and expect for Basaksehirspor to lose 5 points + win Basaksehirspor at home ground on 33rd week.
Erzurumspor meanwhile carries on providing good performance at home ground but due of lack of strong players who can bring scores doesnt manage to get a win, but players willingness and whole atmosphere at away games does provide good game which at least pleasant to look. Erzurumspor could get a win today if it was been little bit more lucky during game.
Galatasaray is entering to difficult last 10 weeks as it aims to stay at title race until end and would now aim to win all games to turn around this difficult condition at the race.
Besiktas has shown pretty poor performance as Senol Gunes looks to be distracted.
Besiktas has got 2nd draw back-to-back during crucial section of the season as it has drawn during Super League 24th week game against in-form Kayserispor as it has gained 1 point from Caner Erkin but has found itself pretty far away from title race with losing those 2 points.
With an announcemenet from TFF that Besiktas head coach Senol Gunes would be appointed as Turkish National Team head coach and adding to that of rumours that he would be joining, has provided lots of focus and pressure to himself and whole team. Without doubt it would be difficult task for Senol Gunes to focus into two this jobs as mentally he has started his position. Coming to the game, Besiktas despite of scoring 2 goals did have trouble at getting at the game and didnt provide very organised game while Kayserispor especially during 2nd half has been controlling ball. Besiktas has lost all of its strongest strengths at yesterday game, and even through some people might connect that to derby game against Fenerbahce, it did have 6 days for preparation. Besiktas chances for league title and also for 2nd spot is getting much more difficult and this would have negative impact to side motivation and focus for sure.
Besiktas would be entering to difficult period for last 10 weeks of the game and with Senol Gunes also mind being also focussed to national team team needs to figure out way to end season with least amount of damages.
Fenerbahce didnt provide much promising performance despite of win.
Fenerbahce did get an important win against Rizespor during Super League 24th week game taking account its situation at the league right now and this win could be even enough for them to stay at the league in the end of the season, but gamewise it still at the level which would be expected from them.
Even through Fenerbahce did show some signs of more attacking game with controlling tempo, its still has made game difficult especially taking account that it had an extra man at the field and has even conceded during that moment. It still has managed to find goal from highly talked penalty decision with Victor Moses converting it towards end. In addition, it did have trouble to get some control of the game as the game has been progressed while Rizespor has got control of the game. Attitude to the game once again has been positive from Fenerbahce as it aimed to go forward in organised and fast-paced but tactically its still has some issues and hence it could have difficult game next week against league leaders Basaksehirspor which provides focussed and organised game whole season and this could provide some issues to the side but again Fenerbahce does provide more better performance against strong opponents and Basaksehirspor are among them.
Fenerbahce still is away from game performance which fans and history of the club would be expected from but once again its main task for now is to get points as much as it can rather than show good game.
