Basaksehirspor has got crucial win against its direct opponents Besiktas

Thanks to 50th minute goal scored by Basaksehirspor player Demba Ba, side has won very crucial game against their title contenders opponent Besiktas and has got 7 point point difference with Besiktas and most important became new leaders in the league at lest until 16th February.

It has been noted beforehand during this game that Besiktas did get important start of period with Sergen Yalcin winning comfortably in last 2 games but its most crucial games has been started right now as it would be playing against direct opponents. Without doubt, Basaksehirspor result would not be providing important test for Sergen Yalcin but also loss could provide crucial circumstances for its title aims. It needs to be noted that among losing 3 points to its direct opponents, it also didnt provide strong attacking game which without doubt has went into hand for Basaksehirspor who among tempo of the game in slow manner, it has also led for team to play as it would like to. Once again, it could be unfair to use this game as general performance but this performance does show that Besiktas as side its not ready to play against its direct opponent and it is clear that route for title especially for sides coming behind top 4 is key way so it needs to improve on that.

As been noted, Basaksehirspor has played way of performance which is used which was to control ball in patient manner and not aiming to slow down tempo of the game but it has managed to that with using counter-attack in pretty effective manner with Demba Ba using his opportunity. Basaksehirspor has got crucial win for sure for its road for title and also gained crucial confidence and motivation for Europa League 2nd round tie against Sporting Lisbon. With this result, Basaksehirspor for sure has shown itself to be among main title contenders.

Basaksehirspor for sure has got crucial win confidence of upcoming games even through it didnt provide great performance but result has been crucial and can continue for high aims this season.

Antalyaspor got into semi-final despite of some circumstances.

Antalyaspor has got into semi-final stage of Turkish Cup where it would be meeting with fellow
Meditterean Sea side Alanyaspor after getting 1:1 scoreline in 2nd leg against league leaders Sivasspor thanks to away goal from Gokhan Sirik.

Antalyaspor did come to the game at difficult condition as on day before they plane has been cancelled due of extreme weather conditions and has arrived to city with bus and also due of stress if game will be played or postponed. Despite of all this circumstances. side has been used opportunity in good way and got goal. It is true that Antalyaspor didnt beat its opponents without winning but Sivasspor on their side didnt use home advantage especially getting into leadership with 1:0 scoreline. With playing against Alanyaspor who does show strong performance and being among title contenders, their would be seeing their chance  pretty high for sure and would hence aim to provide strong performance in following tie. With Antalyaspor also being close to relegation zone, this result would provide some motivation and confidence for upcoming weeks.

Sivasspor meanwhile, does provide some dissapointing result in recent weeks and does have chances to turn around its poor performance with league game against Trabzonspor on 16th February.

Trabzonspor showed positive strong game against Erzurumspor

Trabzonspor did come out to 2nd leg quarter-final against Erzurumspor with huge advantage of 5:0, so therefore this game has been formality and allowed Huseyin Cimsir to give chance to youngsters who on their part provided again attacking game.

But it was specifically important to see that youth players did come out to the game with focus to provide high level performance with finding 4 goals, 2 which come from Guilherme who has transferred to take important role and alternative in attack with 2nd goal almost leading him to have some serious injury. With Erzurumspor finding goal and aiming to show some positive football following 1st leg, this performance by Trabzonspor could be seen as success even if it was arleady at semi-final more or less. This result in overall would also provide strong motivation and confidence for upcoming game against Sivasspor which without doubt would be seen as strong opportunity to get into leadership of the league.

Trabzonspor provided another strong competition and does show that whole team is highly concentrated for positive football and title this season.
