What happened in Turkish football today? 12/11/2020


 Turkey currently has some defensive issues.

Turkey and Croatia did provide pretty classical friendly game against each other without supporters as even through 6 goals been scored at 3:3 draw, there were not other many opportunities as game been going through.

It needs to be noted that one of the discussed issues which been discussed that following Euro2020 qualifiers, where it has provided one of the best defence performance in whole qualifiers, it started conceding in every game following that which without doubt did play direct role with losing or drawing in 6  games during that period. Still, it needs to be praised that during game against Croatia even through it is difficult to state that it did get upper hand, it did manage mentally to be on the game regardless of result of the game and did gain some motivation for last 2 games at Nations League. But without doubt it would need to solve defensive issue in such short period, as it would win next 2 games to have some possibility to end group at top, if it would be lucky for sure.

Turkey hence does have some defense issue following Covid19 period and hence some concentration would be needed in upcoming 2 games for sure.

Domagoj Vida played for 45 minutes with having Covid19 against Turkey.

Meanwhile, there was shocking development during game when it became clear on half time that Croatian player Domagoj Vida has positive test result which became known in half-time after playing for 45 minutes and getting into touch with some Turkish players.

Good news is being that Turkey did go through Covid19 tests this morning and in some hours did recieve results which all turned out to be negative, but it needs to be stated that in such short period it is unlikely for result to be coming out in short period of time. Meanwhile, even through all tests for Croatia for this game did come out negative and hence legitimate to play during this game, it would be seen wrong decision to play while other tests results were expected to  come out which is kind being due of scheduling of this game. With test results start showing actual results within 5-6 days there is danger for those players more for Hungary game than Russian.

Meanwhile, there is possibility that Vida got Covid19 from Besiktas as 3 players are known to be having positive results in previous tests.

Kayserispor appoint Samet Aybaba

Kayserispor has officially announced one of the experienced Turkish head coaches as its new coach with aiming to raise from league and get much better results.

With being working on Super League and lower league he always been able to get some good outcome from his sides always getting maximum level from team he worked with. With taking account that despite of poor results, Kayserispor squad is pretty good for Super League level, i could be expected Samet Aybaba could be getting some good outcomes in upcoming weeks with having opportunity to study and to know better during this international team break. But as always with such task does have potentiality but needs time, Kayserispor as we keep saying every time needs to show patience which seems to be issue in this country.

Aybaba hence does have potentiality to turn around this side making it to get good results as long as side be patient towards him.
