Turkey has got an important motivational boost prior to Euro 2020 qualifiers.
Turkish National Team has managed to win international friendly game against Greece with 2:1 scoreline and has kept its motivation and confidence prior to Euro 2020 crucial qualifier games against France and Iceland at high status with providing tactically good game.
It has been stated that game against Greece has been even more important game in sense of testing its strength prior to France and Iceland, as Uzbekistan is a team which Turkey would be expected to win without much issues to all respect to the opponent. It needs to be stated that Turkish National Team has started game at highly attacking performance which is way team was expected to pay with Senol Gunes as Gunes has shown in previous years including in Besiktas at focusing to providing positive and attacking game. With fast-paced game Turkey has managed to find 2 fast goals with Cenk Under and Hikmet Karaman. It needs to be stated due o tirednes from newly-ended Turkish league and also in similar cases with Greek league also ending recently and also aiming not to have injuries prior to important qualifiers teams start playing much more controllable game and not providing too much technical game and have reduced tempo. In overall, however Turkey has shown very good performance with only downside of conceding goal at last minute.
It needs to be stated that Greece did provide reasonable well performance but it did look like it wanted to get a win from this friendly less than Turkey as it didnt provide similar tempo game as did opponents towards end of the game. Still it was good game for them to check their status prior to their own games.
Turkish National Team did win against Greece and as been mentioned this win is important for them to raise motivation and confidence and winning habit prior to Euro 2020 qualifiers. It is know important to carry on like that against Uzbekistan on 2nd June.
Bursaspor has been relegated even with playing most amount of Turkish players this season.
Our brief summary of performance of the team which has been relegated from Super League during this season is going to be started with Bursaspor which are among one of the teams which Super League tends to be associated for many years.
In fact, Bursaspor as would been remembered has got league title back on 2009-2010 as it being one of the most memorable performances for the club but Bursaspor for many years has been seen as one of the teams to get good result even apart of that season. Coming to this season, what it is most sad with this relegation that its been club which has provided highest amount of playing time to Turkish players during this season and could been one of the leading defenders of changing of foreign players rule,if there wasnt fact that it was relegated. It also needs to be noted that team has got high amount of debts and financial issues which has also affected to its performance. With adding that for many games team didnt provide right focus and fighting spirit it has been relegated with especially draw against Goztepe in penultimate week doing its harm.
Bursaspor would need to learn lessons from this season and find ways how to improve as team and more crucially back to Super League after 1 season for sure.
Erzurumspor did leave some positive memories in this season.
It needs to be stated that, at least from writer of this blog, one of the saddest relegated team during this season has been Erzurumspor as it was team which was seeking for providing positive performance during whole season but lack of quality has affected to team.
It needs to be noted that even through it has lacked strong attackers at its disposal, it has always aimed to provide positive football and an attacking game however some financial issues at the team and also strong differences between sides has affected to the team performance during this season. Stating that it doesnt mean that team has been unlucky as not having players which are suitable to top division its hard to get right result and does provide great example and lesson, even through financial issues at club could be shown without doubt as an excuse. Erzurumspor as club and some players did get an important lesson from this lesson and in fact could aim for top league once again during next season.
Erzurumspor did get an important lesson and did get positive view from Turkish football fans and surely many people would like to see them to be back after next season to top league.
