Sivasspor did show great fighting spirit despite loss to Villarreal.
Despite of losing to Villarreal as would be expected by Sivasspor during Europa League Group I openning week, it needs to be noted that side without doubt overpassed itself with equalising game 2 times but couldnt prevent Alcacer 2 goals which led for game to end with 5:3 scoreline.
With in total of 8 games being scored between two sides, it needs to be noted that Sivasspor did provide high level and focus game especially between 20th and 70 minutes almost making reality of Riza Calimbay statement that club would be aiming for at least 1 point to which players did their best to get this outcome especially when Spanish opponents also did come out for win with showing high level game which does provide high hopes for Sivasspor for rest of the group stage when taking account that its been most difficult opponent in this group. One of the main factors which been noted during this game that attackers did come out with high motivation and self-belief which led for 3 goals to be scored and is being quality side but does have some issues with defence as it did concede 5 goals. One of the factors which side needed to show is to provide much more stronger defence game after 3:3 which it needs to improve if it wants to get knockout stage. Still, as been noted Sivasspor some provided good game and been shown one of the best games during this season.
It needs to be noted that Villarreal did provide pretty strong performance and provided very good performance but couldnt respond to Sivasspor return which could be one of the negative part offside but they did show good game at the end.
Sivasspor despite of losing to Villarreal with 5:3 scoreline in same time did provide some positive aspects for upcoming games with positive game and could fight for 2nd spot in this group.
TFF wants to introduce 30% capacity of stadium open to supporters.
Despite of current rise of number of patients of Covid19 in Turkey, with number of them rising above 2,000 on daily basis, TFF CEO Nihat Ozdemir has stated that he did send request to Health Ministry and Science Committe to introduce 30% capacity at stadium for supporters.
Sadly, Nihat Ozdemir once again is showing lack of understanding and possibly threat of which this decision could have to overall fight against Covid19 once again putting interests of finances of clubs in the league which also show similar attitude. It needs to be noted that argument also that supporters are allowed in some European countries is getting ineffective hence those countries once again bringing closed door entirely with number of cases rising. With Turkey being among few countries which states number of patients rather then cases does also show that condition could be not as good. Its time to football community to become aware circumstances this could lead without doubt. It is expected that both committee and ministry which cancelled 30% rule when numbers were lower, would not accept this.
Situation with Covid is still being unclear and hence whole community needs to be taking this seriously with following health first which includes TFF for sure.
Number of players tests would be raised from 30 to 35.
Staying in the topic of the Covid19, it became clear that TFF has changed guideline of pre-game tests rising number of players who would go through tests from 30 to 35 from 27th October, hence reducing risk of postponining game to minumum.
With Covid19 cases with Hatayspor has led for TFF to move 2 games against Erzurumspor and Ankaragucu, difficult move since it does have very compact schedule. Stating this compact schedule issue been more created by TFF themselves with raising number of teams in the league which began more than month later when it would start in such unpredictable times hence to some extend TFF has created issues for this. Right now, with already intense scheduling, every postponed game does provide issues with putting new date so it does look for solutions. In all fairness, this solution could be effective as extra 5 players who would normally be on reserves would be filling space of 18-team squad. But it is still not solution if god forbid major spread will happen in club which would affect almost everyone in team.
It was expected for this season to be difficult both to clubs and TFF, but some issues could be prevented if not for some decisions.
