What happened in Turkish football today? 04/11/2020


 

Basaksehirspor got historical win against Manchester United.

Basaksehirspor has got historical win against Manchester United with 2:1 scoreline hence getting its 1st win at Champions League with providing strong and confident performance while opponent provided very poor defensive game.

It needs to be noted that Basaksehirspor with showing strong tactical and confident performance which it tend also to show at domestic league led them to get such result. In fact, when looking at how side performed during whole game and especially during 2nd half it showed how side should be performing against opponent which is much stronger with following thinking of respect but no fear as it did use its opportunities in high level at attack while being focussed on defence. Without doubt key player for Basaksehirspor has been Demba Ba who has been showing high level game with looking into lots of opportunities as game been developing with also using into effect Manchester United poor defensive game which especially didnt show any measures against Ba which without doubt did go into his own hand as Demba Ba. Basaksehirspor during whole game only made one mistake where it did concede with simple defence mistake but apart that did show very organised defence not allowing Manchester United to get high number of the chances.

When coming to Manchester United, without reducing importance of Basaksehirspor, which did get historical without any question, did show very poor game especially with simple defensive mistakes and has been pretty low with tempo for side which comfortably won previous games in group.

Basaksehirspor as been noted did get historical win and this win would provide some confidence for rest of the games in group stage and could be aiming to see European spring in one of the two tournamets with such form.

Qarabag will not be easy opponent to Sivasspor.

Following 2 losses at the Europa League, where both of those opponents also got 6 points, Sivasspor would be coming out without doubt to game against Qarabag where it needs to be to be winning to keep chances arrive for knockout stages but it would be tough game.

Even through Qarabag could be seen pretty modest side in European standards, it still set itself as strongest club in Azerbaijan and did regain some notice from European football with on-going performance at Europa League and managed to become first and for now only Azeri side to be competing at Champions League. Therefore, we talking about side which does set itself to get good results at Europe even through it didnt manage to do so even through it needs to be noted that in similar manner it did show good game in previous game as Sivasspor did also. Coming to Turkish side, side did show some good attacking game with scoring 5 goals with 3 against Villarreal but it did concede 8 goals so it does look like its main issue tends to be defensive game and to solve this it would be needing to solve this issue without doubt.

Turkish pundits does see Sivasspor as favourites but looking at aims and experience of Azeri side this could be debatable but it would be close game for sure between two brotherly nations.

Yeni Malatyaspor got 3 positive test results of Covid19

Even through Covid19 cases in Turkish football community in duration of 1 week seems to be degreased compare to period after previous international team  break, there still some unwanted news coming out with Yeni Malatyaspor reporting 1 player and 2 personnel staff getting positive tests.

Yeni Malatyaspor has only reported that there is positive cases without reporting who specifically been infected and also how serious is condition and with lack of statement could be seen as positive thing showing that its not very serious. Still, it does provide that with cases rising in Turkey and football schedule is getting more intense clubs should be more careful and do their best to reduce chance to get infected from virus.

Our page as always wishes fast recovery for this player and staff members and everyone who currently is suffering from this virus.
