What happened in Turkish football today? 19/08/2019
Fenerbahce has started league with confident win against Gazisehir Gaziantep.
Fenerbahce has got pretty confident win against Super League newcomers Gazisehir Gaziantep as it has won game with 5:0 scoreline and has got full dominance of game during 1st 30 minutes as it was arleady winning with 3:0 scoreline.
Without doubt Fenerbahce had a great start to the game providing forward seeking attacking game and has provided a pressure to Gazisehir Gaziantep which has led for 3 penalties back-to-back, out of which 2 has been converted with Victor Moses and afterwards Emre Belozoglu. In fact, with taking account that Fenerbahce didnt convert one penalty and still winning game with 5:0 scoreline has shown how much focussed in attacking wise team were. It is true that Gazisehir Gaziantep, in all respect towards them, didnt provide much attacking game and its been an easy win for Istanbul side but in same it still has shown some improvement from last season as it has provided much more attacking and creative game. It was also crucial for all 5 goals to come from 5 different players which always teamwise an advantage. Probably greatest gain for Fenerbahce has been morale recieved with game and in fact could been ended with bigger difference if it didnt reduce tempo during start of 2nd half of the game.
Gazisehir Gaziantep following all of the teams played games during this season, and not only referring to scoreline, has shown to be team at worst condition and does provide some worries for upcoming season. Stating that its totally new team and its true that it needs time to get adapted both to each other and to league.
Fenerbahce has got a great start and has gained morale both on start of the league and also for two crucial games at the league against Basaksehirspor and later for Trabzonspor.
Trabzonspor didnt manage to provide top level game against Kasimpasa for 90 minutes.
Trabzonspor has joined top clubs losses of points during its openning week of the new season, even through compare to others it has managed to get 1 point against Kasimpasa at the game which ended up tougher which most people expected.
It needs to noted that Trabzonspor actually did have recently good start even through during that period it had shown some lack of creating many chances due of good defensive game by its opponent. Still, during around mid of 1st half it start getting some chances back-to-back and has found a goal from Alexander Sorloth, who following Europa League goals against Sparta Prague in 2 games, has found goal in his 1st league game. As things looked going into hand of Trabzonspor, it has conceded pretty unlucky goal from great Aytac Kara shot which has reflected from Obi Mikel. As game has progressed due of tiredness from Slavia Prague game or being early at this season, or more likely mixture of both has lost its speed and has led control of game to Kasimpasa. Therefore, even through compare to other top clubs Trabzonspor did look one step ahead until now, it still didnt show view of being entirely ready.
As Trabzonspor without doubt aims to have great season, it would need to give all focus towards AEK Athens Europa League play-off round game on 23rd August as it aims to get foremost to Europa League group stage without doubt.
Nurnberg has loaned Fenerbahce player Michael Frey.
Nurnberg has loaned Fenerbahce player Michael Frey with an option to purchase as both clubs has made an announcement in duration of the day.
As it was known, since start of the summer transfer window one of the main priorities of Fenerbahce has been either to sell or loan Michael Frey, and for long time most clubs didnt show any interest. In luck for Fenerbahce, Nurnberg which has been promoted to Bundesliga does have some attacking issues and it did found solution with Frey. This move hence would also be good opportunity for Frey himself, as he would be able to get key role at the team compare to Fenerbahce, as if he would have stayed he would been likely to stay at substitute and hardly get any playing time. Interestingly, both sides made an agreement not to make public conditions of the deal but in all fairness most fans who were dissapointed with Frey would be just glad player has been loaned to other club at least.
This move would also allow for Fenerbahce to make its focus into find substitute for Frey and likely to make some more transfers until end of summer transfer period.

Fenerbahce 5:0 Gazisehir Gaziantep
