What happened in Turkish football today? 01/02/2020


Trabzonspor provided strong tactical defence against forward-seeking Fenerbahce.

Trabzonspor has managed to beat Fenerbahce during very important Super League 20th week game with 2:1 scoreline with providing very organised and focussed defensive performance, giving ball to opponnent but not allowing them to find goal.

Without doubt both sides did come out to the game with an aim to win game as loss even of 2 points could led to be damaged its title chance as with still 14 weeks to be played in the league, loss point could provide huge damage. With Fenerbahce providing strong attacking performance, it has been important for Trabzonspor to keep scoreline after it has managed to get comeback after conceding goal on 1st minute of the game, as it scored every 15 minutes with Sorloth and Novak. Since Fenerbahce has been side with keeping on its feet following 2nd conceded goal, it could be stated that its been better side but people who understand at football would be aware that Trabzonspor did provide confident strong tactical performance not allowing their opponents to get into high amount of the chances. It needs to be noted that Trabzonspor goalkeeper Ugurcan Cakir did provide very good performance including saving some positions which many goalkeepers in country would concede goal.

On other hand, it needs to be noted that Fenerbahce did provide one of its best performance at away during this season with providing strong attacking game always looking for high number of the chances as game has been progressed, and to all respect for other clubs, it would been winning side but in same it didnt manage to get into high amount of the chances as it couldnt pass very focussed concentrated Trabzonspor defence and Ugurcan Cakir during game. Only issue with Fenerbahce which could be criticised for not getting final result which it seeked for has been bit lack of creativity which could be one of most important keys to get through very strong defence, but as been noted Fenerbahce attacking and willingness of player has been on its high and hence it woud provide some positive aspect to get into upcoming weeks. Therefore, even losing game, Fenerbahce could be happy with this performance and would lead for players possibly to provide high level games as it would carry on coming to important games in upcoming weeks.

Therefore, Trabzonspor did overpass one of its direct opponent at title race with game in hand and would be happy with high level organised performance while on other hand Fenerbahce did provide some good performance and this performance could make them win in upcoming weeks.

Sergen Yalcin has started his career at Besiktas with win.

Besiktas head coach Sergen Yalcin has won his 1st game at his position during tribute fixture by beating Rizerspor even through it needs to be noted that team still didnt provide perfect game but still it was good time when taking account that Yalcin didnt get much time for training.

It needs to be noted that Besiktas when coming to tactical performance didnt much been different from previous games but it had more tempo during the game which did come from appointment from Yalcin and also willingness to get win. Even through Besiktas did have some difficulties against Rizespor, factor of providing much better tempo and focus of players did play main reason to get this crucial win and could provide important motivation and confidence for upcoming games and even small chance still kept them at title race with team needs to believe it can achieve it. Sergen Yalcin therefore didnt much provide big changes with style of play but managed to provide confidence and motivation to Besiktas players as it was clear that players came out for win without doubt. It does look like side would improve in upcoming games.

Rizespor on their part it needs to be stated did provide strong confident performance with organised game and also creating high amount of chances with quality between sides affected to team.
Therefore, Rizespor could get some important point in upcoming games.

Besiktas did manage to win against Rizespor with mainly getting strong self-belief  towards game which did affect to outcome of the game.

Galatasaray will be aiming to carry on good performance playing this time against Kayserispor.

Galatasaray is going to resume its difficult but still mathematically title race against last-placed Kayserispor with high motivation following some good result it has gathered in recent weeks and would be aiming to provide confident performance.

It is pretty clear that taking some good performance which Galatasaray is showing during 2020 and taking account that their opponent are currently located in last place and does have some internal and external issues, it would be coming as strong favourite to the game. Without doubt, Emre Akbaba which does show some great comeback following his recovery from injury would be seen as strongest weapon during finding goals, especially taking account that Radamel Falcao will not be able to play due of his injury he got into previous game. S tating that, Kayserispor would be seeing this game as opportunity to get into turning point with getting good result and it needs to be remembered that their did win against Fenerbahce in game which their were underdog, but if it manages to win it would be surprsining outcome for sure.

Therefore, Galatasaray are coming out as favourites to this game and will be expected to provide performance in that manner for sure.
