Trabzonspor provided stronger performance but this tie is still open for 2nd leg.
Trabzonspor has got an important win against Fenerbahce during Turkish Cup semi-final 1st leg game with 2:1 scoreline and did manage to continue its winning habit however it needs to be noted that Fenerbahce did get crucial important away goal.
It could be noted that both sides did provide more careful game during 1st half even through Trabzonspor during this period looked to be more confident and did look for some of the chances but as been noted it didnt raise its tempo in very high level which was suitable for Trabzonspor. Coming to 2nd half performance, Trabzonspor player Alexandr Sorloth has led for them to be highly motivated for rest of the half and confidence which led for their own performance for most part of 2nd half even through it did lose this tempo towards end of the game. Still, Trabzonspor did provide high level of confidence looking to be more aware of its own aims and did provide high amount of the game with looking at the chances while Fenerbahce due of psychological conditions very likely aiming to reduce tempo. In fact, when Trabzonspor did manage to get high tempo during of the game, Trabzonspor did provide strong level of performance. Trabzonspor even through did get small advantage and needs to do lots of things during 2nd leg if it wants to get into final.
Fenerbahce on their part during of its head coach Ersun Yanal announcing his resignation and hence coming to game with his last game in this position did been expected that it would have some issues in this game mentally and this been affected to today game as their provided low level performance both with concentration and tempo, even through it did get very important away goal with Vedat Muriqi and did look for high number of the chances towards end and this outcome would provide some motivation for 2nd leg where 1:0 could be enough for them to get into final of the game which is being currently main aim at the end of the season to get into Europa League for next season since its chances for top 4 spots in Super League are being negatively effected to them.One of the negative aspects for today game also been an injury of Falette which could become very seriously since he was taken to hospital which could mean he could be missing very important games towards end of the season including 2nd leg of this tie.
Trabzonspor did get win with pretty good performance with looking for high amount of the chances but an away goal from Vedat Muriqi still keeps this tie very open and promises to be more interesting game for 2nd leg game next month.
Alanyaspor would likely to get Turkish Cup into priority.
Turkish Cup 2nd semi-final tie would be taking place between two Meditterian Sea sides Antalyaspor and Alanyaspor where both clubs would be aiming their best to get into final game with game expected to be very tight.
Even through Alanyaspor are still could be seen in the title race, their are currently being 10 points behind leaders of the league Basaksehirspor and 9 points behind Trabzonspor who also have game in hand. Therefore,with chances for top 4 spot being low for them, their could provide full attention to the Turkish Cup which for them seems to be easiest and fastest way to get into European competitions for next season, therefore it would be expected for Alanyaspor to be coming out to the game with high concentration and willingness to get through and get important achievement for them for sure. Therefore, it could be expected that Alanyaspor would be providing highly focussed performance aiming to find goals and strong advantage from 1st leg for sure.
Therefore, Alanyaspor certainly would be highly focussed into this game and aim to write history with getting final with passing Antalyaspor and get to competiton final game.
Antalyaspor would see Turkish Cup as an opportunity to turn around poor season for them.
Antalyaspor in other hand, is being at bottom section in the Super League with only 5 points above from relegation zone and hence it would get less concentrated to Turkish Cup with focus to keep themselves in the league, but still its good opportunity for them to end season at high note in what could be seen as dissapointing season.
If for Alanyaspor, even through getting further from title race by each week, this could be seen as very good season for them still, same wouldnt be same for Antalyaspor but some good results from Turkish Cup for those clubs has always provided additional motivation and even through when coming to form it could be argued that Alanyaspor does have an upper hand, Antalyaspor are not very likely to give up easily for their opponents and provide strong organised fighting performance against them. It needs to be noted that with coach like Tamer Tuna team would be able to motivated how much it needed which could also affect team performance during the game for sure.
Antalyaspor would hence provide strong performance against Alanyaspor and it is too close to call game in the end of the day really.
