What happened in Turkish football today? 22/10/2019


Galatasaray failed to score again despite of good game against Real Madrid

Despite of providing pretty good performance during Champions League game against Real Madrid it didnt manage to pass its opponents as it has lost with minum scoreline of 1:0 in similar manner as it did to PSG.

It needs to be admitted that Galatasaray did start game at high tempo with creating some good chances during which Florin Andone did once again provide fast-paced game getting many chances but couldnt pass Courtois who played an important for his team to get win. In other hand, however, Galatasaray did provide not very good performance at defence with allowing their opponents to have high amount of the chances getting chances. In fact, what it was noticed that both sides didnt show very well game at the midfielding section. It needs to noted also that Galatasaray even through did concede only 2 goals at such group with especially Muslera effective game but so far it didnt score any goal being only side to have this negative outcome in the tournament. Therefore, even through team does provide some positive game with providing strong and organised game but with failing to score goals and giving points at the group means side needs to do a lot in this group with getting to the at least 3rd spot in this group stage. So, it does need to provide some chances for upcoming games.

Real Madrid despite of getting an important win at away game, it still did provide look of having some issues as side having some difficulties but still with name and experience as expected played win in this game.

Galatasaray does provide some good performance in this game but it still has issues to convert chances and did have some defensive issues during game. 

Ahmet Nur Cebi does provide support for Abdullah Avci for now.

Newly-elected Besiktas CEO Ahmet Nur Cebi has made statements prior to election and also following election that for now he would be working with its current head coach Abdullah Avci but did make it clear that if needed he would be changing coach.

Regardless in what way is club being financially both negatively and positively, it is widely known that success of club CEO especially in Turkey is being measured by football results by supporters.
Therefore, among economical issues one of tasks of Ahmet Nur Cebi when being elected is to find ways how to provide better football results with providing support to all aspects of football players and technical staff. Therefore, even if and that is quite possible, Ahmet Nur Cebi needs to provide strong support to its coach so this not very good performance doesnt even get any worser. It needs to be remembered that this week is being very important for whole team as it would be playing against Braga at Europa League and later against Galatasaray in the league and hence would be looking with getting great positive results.

Without doubt, Ahmet Nur Cebi would be unhappy with how this team is performing right now at the league and would be hoping that their would be able to start getting positive results and performance.

Alanyaspor main barrier could be leadership pressure as performance their are strong.

Without doubt, main surpise during this season has been leadership of Alanyaspor following 8 weeks with having 2 point advantage over Trabzonspor who are at 2nd place.

Among providing great performance so far during this season providing during for most games also strong and attacking game, it also has in its disposal Papiss Cisse which is showing strong attacking game always looking for chances and scoring goals. It is pretty hard to state if side would be able to provide such performance until end of the season as title race would provide some pressure to the team for sure, but it does look certain that it has capacity to race to leadership or even end there when mid-season would be coming for more than 2 months. Alanyaspor in all fairness did feel some pressure with 3 weeks prior to national team break but following that break it has got an impressive win against Rizespor once again providing strong attacking performance.

Alanyaspor does provide in overall good performance and this game could be good enough for them to fight for league title but its main opponent is being pressure provided from that.
