What happened in Turkish football today? 04/03/2019


Trabzonspor has lost an opportunity to get a win against Kasimpasa. 

Trabzonspor didnt manage to keep its 2:0 advantage against Kasimpasa during Super League 24th week game and has drawn game with 2:2 scoreline even through it was expected that Trabzonspor would be getting an easy win.

Despite of being in decline with performance from Trabzonspor during recent weeks and also finding itself far from title race, it was still expected that Trabzonspor wouldnt have much issue against struggling Kasimpasa. In fact, it has provided this kind of performances during 1st half of the game as it has got 2 goals thanks to the Nwakaeme goals. However, with possibly motivational boost which opponent got from their head coach Mustafa Denizli getting to the hospital, and also losing some concentration for Trabzonspor it has conceded 2 goals. To some extend, this performance also describes performance of whole season of Trabzonspor as it shows to some unstable performance in this season and also in previous seasons. With this result Trabzonspor now also finds itself in danger of not getting Europa League spot at the league and needs to start getting results in upcoming weeks.
In other hand, Kasimpasa has got its first points for 2nd half of the season even through it did show very poor start to the game and has provided image that it would be losing points again. Interestingly, with Mustafa Denizli going to hospital for feeling unwell duiring half-time has provided an additional boost to players as it has played for coach.

Trabzonspor did lose 2 points as it aimed get an important win for themselves but with performance of 2nd half it became clear that club continues poor performance and needs to aim to improve until its too late.

Galatasaray didnt show top game against Erzurumspor

Galatasaray has lost crucial 2 points during Super League 24th week game against Erzurumspor which has ended with 1:1 scoreline and didnt provide a good performance during -5 degrees, but it didnt get those points due of weather conditions.

As Basaksehirspor has managed to win Yeni Malatyaspor on same day and hence has raised point difference to 9 points, Galatasaray needed to win game to keep itself at the title race but it has only managed to reduce that point difference to 8 points. Galatasaray didnt show great start of the game with providing slow and uneffective game which has been went into hand of Erzurumspor and helped them to end 1st half with 1:0 scoreline. Galatasaray as a whole didnt provide great performance and wasnt very effective and didnt respond to the game as a team which needed to get a win and it could be stated that Erzurumspor has wanted to get this 3 points more. Even Galatasaray head coach Fatih Terim following game has stated that his team didnt provide enough performance to get 3 points and needs to improve a lot. To some extend team has also continued its away game phobia as this has been another game which team has lost away.

With 10 weeks left until end of the season, and also with taking account that it would meet with Basaksehirspor at home during penultimate week, it would need to hope that it would reduce point difference of 8 points.

Basaksehirspor needs to stay focus for last 10 games. 

As Basaksehirspor has won against Yeni Malatyaspor with 2:0 scoreline and also Galatasaray drawing against Erzurumspor has made the club much more closer for achieving getting title this season but crucial games are starting right now for them.

One of the most crucial games which would be able to test about capability of Basaksehirspor to show top level performance at the road for a title, without doubt would be game against Fenerbahce as this game would affect both sides and also Galatasaray chances to keep their chances for title even higher. It needs to be stated that Basaksehirspor are playing main organised and patient football and even through it doesnt provide good watching experience, does provide targeted points which it aims for. But this blog still believes that their would be many games for Basaksehirspor in upcoming weeks, during which it needs to provide strong attitude which could be coming from fans in usual, but with team still having lack of supporters and also any fan culture this could turn into disadvantage in games which matters. However, if Basaksehirspor would be focussed and dedicated for its aim it can get league title at the end of the season.

8 point difference is big advantage and does leave them to be very closer for happy end, but with 10 games left, it is crucial for Basaksehirspor to stay focus for its road to title.
