What happened in Turkish football today? 18/10/2020


 

Fenerbahce continues league without loss, this time winning Goztepe

Fenerbahce continues its undefeated season with beating Goztepe with 3:2 scoreline during Super League 5th week at the game which was expected to be tough game for them without doubt as it tends to be in recent seasons.

It needs to be noted that Fenerbahce did provide much more effective attacking game especially during 2nd half with providing more organised attacking game even through it needs to be noted that it still area which needs to be worked on especially taking account that it did provide more defensive game during last 10 minutes. Still, it should be admitted that Fenerbahce did provide much more stronger attacking game with creating high amount of the chances, but Goztepe which always showed strong performances at home ground which without them led them to give some difficult moments for Fenerbahce even through it could be noted especially towards end Fenerbahce allowed them to show such game. It was especially important for Fenerbahce for Dimitrios Pelkas to find 1st goal in his debut thanks to great goal from Ozan Tufan who also showed very good performance without doubt with great cross. It needs to be admitted that Fenerbahce showed good game but still needs to improve on some areas. Once again one of the main players been Altay Bayindir for his great save in the end which brought 3 points to side for sure.

On other hand, Goztepe needs to be praised to always providing organised game and stay focussed trying to get back even through it was always getting behind but it does need to show with defence as allowed Fenerbahce for high amount of chance. 

Fenerbahce even through its not close to perfect game its getting closer to that level with side getting adapted while continuing league without loss.

Trabzonspor provided low concentration to Basaksehirspor.

Trabzonspor has provided pretty ineffective performance against title holders Basaksehirspor while they opponents has got they 1st win so far during this season with getting confidence prior they 1st group stage Champions League game against RB Leipzig. 

Trabzonspor in all fairness did start game much better compare to their opponents until their conceded 1st goal from Irfan Can Kahveci with controlling ball and creating some chances but couldnt pass opponent goalkeeper Mert Gunok who once again been in very good form. However, as game did progress and Basaksehirspor providing organised defensive and midfield game, Trabzonspor concentration and belief has been reduced and it look like side did give up game entirely after conceding goal on 53rd minute from very good goal from Edin Visca who also scored his 1st goal which would sure provide crucial self-confidence as without doubt he is leader of the club. Trabzonspor does lack self-belief so far during this season and it does look to be issue which Eddie Newton needs especially to be focussed on.

Trabzonspor hence doesnt provide too much confident performance so far and hence needs to focus with improving so it wont continue losing points this season.

Galatasaray expects to get tough time from Alanyaspor. 

Galatasaray would be meeting with leader leaders so far Alanyaspor who it is behind for 3 points, with win for either club would at least provide crucial motivation for upcoming weeks in the league.

Galatasaray without doubt has shown very good performance in the start of the season but starting with Fenerbahce derby game showed some decline both with results and performance, therefore its game against Alanyaspor however without doubt this is not very good opponent for them against which it could get easy win as their opponents certainly would be also coming out for win. With Galatasaray also having some internal issues especially with Younes Belhanda and Sofiane Feghouli it could be interesting to see how it woudl affect into football field for sure since reduction of salaries without wanting is expected to affect to players performance. Alanyaspor on their part continuing top football from past season at league and will be providing strong game against Galatasaray.

This is expected hence to be good game with both sides providing strong performances aiming to win game and continue top spot performances.
