What happened in Turkish football today? 15/08/2019


Trabzonspor has managed to get a win against Sparta Prague with strong performance.

Trabzonspor has managed to get into Europa League play-off round after beating Sparta Prague with 2nd leg at home with 2:1 scoreline and winning whole tie with 3:2 scoreline.

Trabzonspor did start game at high tempo with getting behind of its supporters who without doubt has pushed team into forward attacking game and has shown lots of improvement with side compare to 1st leg. One of the most important factors was also for Sorloth to find an important goal during start of the game with also proving that he would be an important player both to side and coming to the game has provided an important pressure towards Sparta Prague. Even through Sparta Prague has got into game as it has progressed it did have difficult task at finding goals and hence with Trabzonspor controlling game and preventing Sparta Prague. With an addiiton of getting 2nd yellow card of Plavsic has made task even more difficult and has provided an opportunity for Novak to find goal at last minute to also win among getting to the next stage.

Sparta Prague in all fairness did provide decent game but with conceding goal from Sorloth it had some difficult time as game has been developed and Sparta Prague did provide some good performance but playing at this kind of atmosphere was difficult task for them.

Trabzonspor has qualified to play-off round and now would be aiming to get a win agaisnt AEK at the play-off round.

Yeni Malatyaspor has been relegated from Europa League despite winning against Partizan.

Yeni Malatyaspor has been relegated during Europa League 3rd qualifying round despite of winning 2nd leg game with 1:0 scoreline but due of 3:1 scoreline at 1st leg it has been relegated from competition.

Despite of relegation it needs to be admitted that Yeni Malatyaspor has shown some strong and positive performance during 2nd leg game and has actually found an early goal from Adis Jahovic which has led team without doubt to provide strong and effective game in rest of the game with especially dominant game during 1st half. It needs to be admitted that ungiven penalty decision which wasnt  given to the Yeni Malatyaspor has affected to the team performance and provided some nervous outcomes and loss of concentration without doubt. In other hand, Partizan even through did improve during 2nd half it was pretty far from Yeni Malatyaspor but Turkish side didnt lose that opportunity but without doubt has shown good performance for a team which has provided some high-level performance during 4-game period at its 1st European performance.

Meanwhile, did come out to the tie with an advantage scoreline of 3:1 prior to game and did lose that as it didnt provide same level performance as it did during 1st leg and with some good defence and luck has qualified to play-off round.

Yeni Malatyaspor even through didnt get as far as play-off round of Europa League it still had good experience and did provide some good performance against Partizan and Olimpija Ljubjana.

Super League would start with title holders and newcomers playing against each other.

2019-20 Turkish Super League season is going to be started with newcomers of the Super League Denizlispor and title holders Galatasaray at what promises to be game between both sides which have different but high aims for next season.

It needs to be stated that Galatasaray readiness both in sense of physically and also among transfers is expects to be best, and even throuhg it did win Turkish Super Cup against Akhisarspor it didnt provide a great game and did raise some questions how much team is ready for new season. Stating that, it would be coming out as favourites against Denizlispor due of quality factors and also wishing to start season at high notes. Denizlispor meanwhile after returning to Super League after long time would be aiming to start season at least with good performance and get high motivation for rest of the season, and best way to do so would be meeting with title holders. Galatasaray would be aiming to show strong performance but it wont be an easy game as it look from 1st glance.

Season of 2019-20 season would be starting with Galatasaray playing against Denizlispor and among teams which are curious how would perform during this season would be meeting with each other.
