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


Galatasaray has got very confidence performance against Kayserispor.

Galatasaray as would been expected did get  comfortable result during Super League 20th week game against Kayserispor with 3:1 scoreline and did reduce point difference from leaders Sivasspor to 5 points but needs to be aware that there are 5 teams above them.

One of the main reasons for Galatasaray to get such confident win has been how it started game with fast pace which led for team to find 2 goals in duration of 20 minutes from Adem Buruk and Ryan Donk which without them let them to reduce tempo of the game but still kept control of the game. Without doubt, one of the main aspects in improvement sides of the Galatasaray during 2nd half of the season has led to provide team performance which led them to understand each other, work as union which without doubt would lead them to find high amount of the chances. It needs to be noted meanwhile that one of the main actors of this game has been Omer Bayram  who has given 2 assists and generally does show strong understanding of position leaing with seeing potential dangerous chances. Even through side, did play against last place side but we are seeing confidence from

Galatasaray which did been missing during 1st half of season.
Kayserispor did provide very poor performance but after 2:0 it did provide some raise of performance and did provide some reaction for comeback. Even through it could be argued that Galatasaray did allow them, it still need to praised that their didnt give up and this attitude could be key for them to stay at league.

Galatasaray with getting 5 points behind league leaders and getting right into title race does also provided self-confidence and belief on side which reflected their performance in games.

Trabzonspor with winning Fenerbahce find itself among favourites to title race.

With top 7 sides being very close to each other in title race, it would need to be noted that without doubt both Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce did come out for a win during Super League 20th week and did everything to get that result even through tactics which been used been different.

Trabzonspor did provide very strong reaction when conceding goal in duration of 1st minute following Max Kruse goal as it managed to get comeback within 30 minutes thanks to the goal from Alexander Sorloth and Filip Novak with Sorloth providing very good performance taking once again with goal and assist. However, following 2:1 it went into game where Fenerbahce did get control of the ball with aiming to get into strong attacking football but with highly concentrated Trabzonspor defence did provide some difficulties and when Fenerbahce did get into chances to score it couldnt pass Ugurcan Cakir especially on shot from Max Kruse save towards end of the game has been incredible. With this result Trabzonspor has got 1 point advantage with game in hand which means that with this win it would be getting among one of the strongest title candidates with city believing into this win. Fenerbahce side meanwhile would be satisfied with how team performed despite of result therefore it can also look into positive view for upcoming games.

Even through there is still long time until end of the season, with those sides playing against each other in duration of February which could provide important role for title chances to all sides.

Sergen Yalcin had good result in his new club

Even through it could be argued that Besiktas didnt provide tactically very good performance against Rizespor, but with appointment of Sergen Yalcin as club's head coach did raise tempo of the team and willingness.

With Yalcin appointment has been seen by many as new beginning for the team, it was important for them for sure to get into high motivation and getting good result which it manage to do so. This game without getting damages would let Sergen Yalcin to identify issues at the team from first-hand view and would be aiming for sure to find solutions until next week game against Gaziantep next week. That game for certain would be leading for sure to Besiktas to be more closer to show into his capacity of what he could be recieved. But as been noted with getting good results against Rizespor with 2 great goals from Burak Yilmaz and Gokhan Gonul, it still become clear that Besiktas does have lots of areas which needs to improve on for upcoming games especially with how it performed during 2nd half letting Rizespor to get upper hand regarding possession.

It was expected for this game to be played by Besiktas but question was it even ready to get result which it did and let Yalcin to get good outcome in 1st game.
