Galatasaray and Fenerbahce focussed into organised game at derby.
Biggest derby in Turkey and among most important games in global football has ended with goalless draw with both sides providing highly focussed defensive game hence providing more controllable game which became habit of derby games in recent years.
Galatasaray has been come out as strong favourite towards game hence rather then with results but more regarding of performance which site been showing until this game both in Turkey and Europe provided high expectation with providing high tempo against Fenerbahce. However, organised defensive game which been shown with opponent and also playing 4 games in 2 weeks while Fenerbahce played only two games did affect to this low tempo from Galatasaray. Despite of low tempo which could be seen reason of tiredness, apart of that it didnt show much of being tired from game since it still managed to stay focussed both in defence and despite of lack of high chances it still showed some organisation. With both side having strong players and well-organised plans did provide to some extend bored but well tactically performance by both side. With current condition of league with none of the sides making 3 out of 3, it did end among 4 sides with 7 points after 3 points.
On other hand, with Fenerbahce drawing against its opponent does keep themselves 2 points away from league sides so this draw even through would be unwanted result for side and would not be accepted prior to game, it would be not be seen as bad outcome since it did play away even if there were not supporters. With signing players like Tisserand and Lemos Fenerbahce did make clear with such game that it made strong defence on its disposal with preventing Galatasaray showing strong and confident performance. During previous 2 seasons, with Fenerbahce getting very far from title race been mainly happened due of poor defence however this game did prove that it does have well-organised and high level defenders. However, with showing strong defensive performance it did have some trouble with providing strong attacking game and take account lack of it in previous game, does provide worry that side could become strong at defence but could struggle with finding goals. Still, as been noted above with being 2 points behind Galatasaray and other leaders, this result is good one but it needs to improve its performannce especially in attack.
With both sides being aware of importance of not losing this game as both sides could become potentially main title contenders has led for organised and tactical game but led for not very exciting game.
Besiktas slow and infective performance led for unexpected result against Konyaspor.
Besiktas has provided unexpected loss against Konyaspor during Super League 3rd week game with providing very poor performance during whole game with conceding pretty simple goals and failing to get upper hand of the game from start to an end.
One of the main issues for Besiktas during this game is failing to provide any high tempo from start of the game which without doubt did go into hand for Konyaspor as medium-base game allowed them to prevent Besiktas to provide effective attacking game and also provide some effective attacking game using opportunities which Besiktas let them to get. It needs to be noted that such poor performance and especially simple mistakes it made when conceding first 2 goals are not expectaple for side like Besiktas in this level and possibly for interesting aspect showed that players didnt get into game and been pretty loss of concentration. Stating it was visible that Besiktas in sense of tempo seems to be having such issue from start of the season, even through pretty worrying it does show rather decline of performance rather then improvement which would provide some worry for Besiktas head coach Sergen Yalcin. This side for sure needs to figure out solution for such low tempo game or it would have more dissapointing results in upcoming weeks.
Konyaspor did realise without doubt that it did get Besiktas with pretty poor condition and starting from 30 minutes of the game managed to provide brave but same time controllable game with finding 4 goals and getting best result against Besiktas in history of two sides playing each other.
Besiktas without issue continues providing some worrying image with showing in fact worser game by each week and right now Besiktas needs to find solution to solve this if it wants to get result which it seek for.
Trabzonspor got must needed win against Yeni Malatyaspor thanks to Benik Afobe 2 goals
Trabzonspor has got its 1st win in the Super League during this season as it won against Yeni Malatyaspor with 3:1 scoreline as newly-signed Benik Afobe has scored 2 goals with showing his quality.
It needs to be noted that with coming out to the game with only 1 point after 2 games and having league title in this season, it was important for Trabzonspor to get win in this fixture regardless how it played. It did get advantage with coming in such crucial time against Yeni Malatyaspor who in all respect are having very poor start of the season to get this result and restart season for themselves without doubt. It needs to be noted that with finding 3 goals during 1st half, Trabzonspor compare to opponent did provide much more effective performance with higher tempo but when looking in overall it could be noted that it wasnt still on level which it been seeking for. However, it could be stated that this result would provide much needed motivation and confidence. In addition, it was especially important for Benik Afobe to find 2 goals, with first one being relatively easy, to get personal confidence and in this game he did provide positive view of getting main role at attack for team
Trabzonspor without doubt did get confidence which it been lacking with unwanted result and performances so far this season and could have new beginning for themselves for upcoming games.
