What happened in Turkish football today? 16/04/2019


Galatasaray will open case against Ali Palabayik and Semih Ozsoy.

Aftermath of the Istanbul derby between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray has taken into new strengths as it became clear that Galatasaray would be going into court with openning cases against referee of the game Ali Palabayik and Fenerbahce administrator Semih Ozsoy.

As soon at Kadikoy has been over there has been back-to-back blames given towards referee of the game Ali Palabayik from Galatasaray who didnt referee game in good manner and made many mistakes as game has been progressing. Once again, this blog thinks that club should mainly focus into their own matters rather than look for external issues but this game events did show that Turkey doesnt use VAR in maximum capacity and in fair manner. With actions that took place during game, Galatasaray has decided to open case against referee of the game believing that those actions has been done purposefully. Coming to the case against Semih Ozsoy, Fenerbahce administrator did provide some degrading statements of his opponent which would Galatasaray to do such action. Especially Ozsoy has stated that Galatasaray has lost league title due of this game which is disrespectful action and should not be tolerated.

Galatasaray seems to be very furious following this game actions and hence this actions which would be made by team are understandable but same time could only raise tension at title race.

Basaksehirspor would also open case against Abdurrahim Albayrak

On other hand, Basaksehirspor have arleady started court case against Galatasaray administratior
Abdurrahim Albayrak for his statements following Super League game against Fenerbahce where he implies that TFF has decided that Basaksehirspor would get league title.

Interestingly, Abdurrahim Albayrak has made also statement that his documents and data which proves some of the matters but didnt explain what this information has and didnt show documents. This lack of providing any information and just stating that their have information surely is not enough and does raise questions about legitimacy of this action. In fact, Albayrak could make those statements only in two conditions, that he does have some data about those issue or he is playing populist game. With title race getting heating up, which does occasionally also affect towards Turkish football environment, this statements would only do harm for strong and exciting title race. With taking account that Basaksehirspor also losses points, including against Besiktas, it is crucial for this matter to be cleared and until it is Basaksehirspor has all right to open this case.

Galatasaray right now has difficult case of defending itself after making this interesting statements for sure and could have big consequences.

Sergen Yalcin will stay at Alanyaspor for another 2 years. 

Apart of derby game, there has been also other events taking place at Turkish football and among them is news that Alanyaspor head coach Sergen Yalcin has made deal with his club to stay for another 2 years.

This news did come out after day when there was rumour that Sergen Yalcin would be appointed as Besiktas assistant coach for next season but this news that he would extend for 2 years has ended this talks. It needs to be stated that Sergen Yalcin does feel comfortable at Alanyaspor and more importantly does get good result as season is progressing and hence it would be seem natural for such agreement to be made between sides for sure. Alanyaspor surely has managed to get maximum performance from this team and it does show pretty good and attacking game which could provide main reason why Alanyaspor is happy with his performance. It needs to be stated that official statement is expected to be made in upcoming days.

Besiktas meanwhile carries on looking for head coach and assistants after Senol Gunes would leave club for Turkish National Team at the end of the season.
