What happening in Turkish football today? 06/05/2019


Trabzonspor has quarenteed Europa League spot but it has higher aims for last 3 games.

Trabzonspor has managed to guarantee its Europa League spot for next season as it has won Super League 31st week game against Kayserispor with 4:2 scoreline at the game which ended up being much more tougher than it has expected.

With also Besiktas losing to Galatasaray during derby game yesterday without doubt has also provided an additional motivation to the Trabzonspor as it has got an opportunity to fight for 3rd spot at the standings with taking account that it would be playing against Besiktas during next week. Also it needs to be added that Trabzonspor still has mathematical chances for league title but it is such unlucky possibility that players dont even focus on that and main aim to get Europa League spot and after have less qualifiying round. All of this matters without doubt has affect to Trabzonspor performance as it has provided an active attacking game from beginning and has hence scored 2 early goals during 1st 20 minutes. Only problem of Trabzonspor has been too much reaction from Trabzonspor has led game to come to 2:2 scoreline but Trabzonspor player Onur has found goal within 2 minutes and has upper hand of the game again. It is very important for Trabzonspor to end season at high note and it aware of that and hence it would carry on its top performance without doubt during last 3 games including against Besiktas.

In other hand, Kayserispor has been coming out as strong underdogs as their had secured its place at Super League and from beginning it has shown poor performance giving view that Trabzonspor might be going for big score but than did show good character at comeback. Kayserispor would have mix performance as it without aim but as team it would aim to end season at high note.

Trabzonspor has secured its 4th place and Europa League spot but this would not be enough for them and would perform high performance in upcoming games for sure.

Galatasaray has won Besiktas with great organised performance.

Galatasaray has got its leadership at the Super League title race as 3 weeks are left until end of the season after it has managed to win very important derby game against Besiktas with 2:0 scoreline and are currently having same points with Basaksehirspor.

Due of higher average which it has gathered until 31st week, Galatasaray has an advantage over Basaksehirspor of 8 goals and does have an important advantage of getting draw after next week against their opponents and still win league title. Coming to the game, Galatasaray has shown probably highest concentration towards game during this season and tactically has provided perfect game without losing any control of the game. At the weeks when its more crucial not to lose game rather than providing good observable game, it should be seen as smart tactic. It needs to be noted that Besiktas didnt have any control of the game and even through at some points of defence has shown some organised game, it couldnt show any effective attacking game apart of some small parts of 2nd half. Galatasaray has provided view that it aims to win league title this season and this could be clearly seen from their performance and has got an important advantage. During last 20 years, Galatasaray has never lost title after being leaders of league prior to 3 weeks and this by itself provides high optimism with club supporters and administrators.

Galatasaray has shown highly organised game against Besiktas and has deserved win as it was 100% focussed into what is happening at field and didnt allow external issues to lose focus to them.

Besiktas poor tactical game possibly has lost them league title.

Besiktas on other hand couldnt get into game and didnt provide strong organised game and after conceding goal from controversial throw-in, it has provided too much focus into that position and referee of the game.

If for Galatasaray key of the win has been full concentration and focus towards game, this factor has provided downside for Besiktas which has provided not close as effective game which was expected by them. Besiktas head coach Senol Gunes has changed its tactical performance of rather focussing into attacking game, mainly to defence being more scared to lose game. Even through this could be understandably, loss of game would and in fact did reduce chances of league title highly. Even through mathematically Besiktas has chances to win game, it needs to be waiting for their opponents to only win once with 3 games left at the season which is very hard scenario to happen alone with 1 opponent, but also with 2 opponents. Meanwhile, it could be argued that possibly throw in positions Besiktas has right to protests and this has affected to outcome of game, but even if those goals didnt come at best Besiktas would end game with a draw if game continued in similar manner. Besiktas has provided dissapointing result and this very likely has cost them league title at the end.

Besiktas still of course needs to stay focussed and provide strong performance against Ankaragucu next wek and dont lose hope but it would need very high luck to end season with title.
