What happened in Turkish football today? 07/04/2019


Basaksehirspor has got win against Konyaspor with controllable game.

Basaksehirspor has got an important win against Konyaspor during Super League 27th week game with providing slow tempo and controllable game against pretty struggling side and in return has got win with 2:0 scoreline.

Without doubt for neutral football fans it was pretty unpleasant to watch such a game which has lacked high tempo and chances but it needs to be remembered that current aim for Basaksehirspor is to get league title. WIth having such an old squad, at football sense, Basaksehirspor head coach Abdullah Avci does need to go through this kind of game if he wants to get league title at the end of the day. Taking account that Konyaspor is also team which mainly focusses into defence aspects but have trouble at finding goals at recent weeks, it was crucial for Basaksehirspor to find goal as chances for opponent to score are being low. Stating that it needs to be stated that Basaksehirspor player Edin Visca has shown good forward seeking goal and has scored a great goal which has come mainly from self-confident. As been mentione during this season, Basaksehirspor are not showing great game for viewers but it continues its leadership at standings with 6 points which means for most of time their are doing their correctly.

Konyaspor in other hand, with also opponent providing low tempo and having in general poor performance at forward during last 8 games has also provided barrier for them to score and even fight for draw at this game. Konyaspor needs to have some change at its performance for upcoming last 7 games.

Basaksehirspor continues its 6-point advantage against Galatasaray with 7 weeks left at this season, but it needs to be stated that next week would provide crucial changes for end of the season as Basaksehirspor will play with Besiktas while Galatasaray will have derby game with Fenerbahce.

Fenerbahce needs to be honest with itself after losing 2 points against Ankaragucu.

Fenerbahce carries on losing an important points as season comes at the end of the season and carries on playing with a fire as with this result it is currently locates itself only 5 points above of relegation zone as it has drawn 1:1 with Ankaragucu during Super League 27th week game.

It could be stated to some extend that Fenerbahce did provide much more attacking game compare to most of the games and probably most during an away games but this hasnt been enough to get an important win which would provide motivation for a team. In fact, good performance of Fenerbahce could be pretty dangerous as it is more importantly, at conditions which Fenerbahce needs to get wins for calm end of the season, should be looking for negative aspects rather than positive for sure. Meanwhile, one of the most talking points has been position of fight which took place towards end of game when Ankaragucu when Miha Zajc didnt throw to out and has provided some shot which led for tension between both sides with Mehmet Ekici getting red card in that position. Fenerbahce did create many chances during game but when it came to converting them it didnt show good performance and still has lack of performance by attackers as only goal which has come from Fenerbahce did come from defender, which by itself shows conditions of the side and still provides worrying image for Fenerbahce.

Ankaragucu meanwhile has provided good organised game even through it didnt look to be much case during 1st half but it has kept score with 0:0 scoreline as game has been progressing and has found goal with 1:0 with Boyd goal at 43rd minute. Meanwhile,it was also important for Ankaragucu to stay focussed after conceding goal and provided attacking game towards end of game.

Fenerbahce as been mentioned did provide some good performance but it wasnt enough and it cant afford to do so with its current performance and needs to start getting wins including against Galatasaray.

Galatasaray has got an confident win against Yeni Malatyaspor but has lost another defender due of red card. 

Galatasaray has provided much more attacking and confident game against Yeni Malatyaspor during
Super League 27th week game compare to Turkish Cup and has got a win with 3:0 scoreline and would carry on its title race in confident manner.

Galatasaray has started game in much faster tempo compare to Turkish Cup game while Yeni Malatyaspor has been focussed into more at defensive performance but as Galatasaray has raised tempo it has got into much confident game. It needs to be stated that Diagne has aimed to provide also much more attacking game and has found 2 penalty goals during game which would provide motivational and confidence for player, but he still has an issue to converting chances within game and not able to found some clear chances which has been case during Yeni Malatyaspor game. Still, it was important for Galatasaray as overall to provide much more attacking game and lead to different performance and has gained much more its aim to fight for league title without allowing Basaksehirspor to get further as we are coming towards last 7 games. Only issue for Galatasaray would been pretty needless red card of Marcao which would mean that Galatasaray will not be able to come out to the Fenerbahce derby game during next week with its main defenders as Luyindama also has got red card at cup game.

Galatasaray would now focus towards Fenerbahce derby game which would take place and aim to find good alternative for defenders looking at current conditions of available players he has in hand.
