Turkish National Team been relegated to League C when it got chance to get promoted
Turkish National Team did come out for Hungary game in its final game with aim to get top spot during last week game at League B game but ended being relegated to lower league hence once again showing decline of its game.
Turkish National Team continues to providing unstable performance as it even got great opportunity to end group stage at the top and being relegated to elite league as Russia was losing to Serbia during whole game with Turkey needing win but certainly it didnt do anything to get that win for sure. Since start of this campaign at Nations League, Turkey has treated this tournament as friendlies while its opponents, including Russia who lost today, saw it as important tournament which without doubt did lead for side to only win 1 game which did come out from help of referee. Turkey did provide similar performance in this game, and when it did play which was taking game much seriously playing for win even when draw would been enough did provide such result. Team which didnt lose to France during Euro2020 qualifiers with being relegated to 3rd division at the tournament which has 4 is just unexpectable and does show how unserious and unstable Turkey continues to be.
In other hand, as been noted Hungary wanted to win this game and provided patient performance for 90 minutes and being side which had control of the game. In fact, as it was expected that they would be get into defence since draw would be enough for them, they provided much more attacking game towards end, attitude which should be given by Turkey.
Turkey provided very poor performance in Nations League and in all fairness should not use Covid19 card since everyone has been in same conditions for sure.
Single laboratory would reduce feeling of unfairness with tests.
As it does look, unfortunately, that whole Europe including Turkey would be having difficult winter due of Covid19, conversation regarding of having single laboratory for PCR tests has been discussed actively.
With active conversation regarding of forfeiting Super League since January due of intense scheduling of season, has been seen in negative manner as would be expected from all clubs, but in same time provided statement that it could be accepted by them if tests would be done in same laboratory. Decision of this for possibility that club would be hiding test results to come out to the game and also different results coming from different test. Even through, laboratory which would be provided by Health Ministry likely will not be 100% reliable it would be able to come from all clubs and hence provide trustfullness among it being open result with all clubs having access. Therefore, it would be important for single laboratory to exclude possibe issues which could rise in future.
This is being unusual season which likely would have some factors of Covid19 affecting its normality and its important to provide some trustfullness to everyone involved.
Sports and Youth Ministry is currently running TFF
With Turkish Sports and Youth Ministry being one who announced agreement with TFF and BeinSports regarding broadcasting rights of Super League, raises once again argument who actually runs TFF.
Since introduction of Covid19 during this season which includes: postponement of previous season, supporters issue, and this time contract with broadcaster which economically rooted to issues raised from Covid19, it does look that especially at least Covid19 final decision is been made from ministry. Until now, TFF CEO Nihat Ozdemir has used such comment as: we want league to continue(previous season), we want 30% of supporters capacity, we want other things but final word been decided from above. Here it is important to note, in such important issue which needs to be admited threathens nation security in sense of health, it would expected and should be for Sports and Youth Ministry, Health Ministry and Covid19 Science Committee to make decisions with TFF approving them. Issue is not that, but for Ozdemir keep making his wishes, sometimes even making it sound like final decision, but in few days or even hours Sports and Youth Minister announced totally opposite decision.
It does look like now decision about forfeiting games and single Covid19 PCR test results laboratory would also come from those sources. Again, its normal for them to make those decisions but from outside Ozdemir looks like someone who cant make those strong decisions with strong suggestions.

UEFA Nations League, League B, Group 3:
