Fenerbahce provided high level tempo game against Kayserispor.
Fenerbahce has provided one of its most organised with high tempo during this season as it got confident win against Kayserispor with 3:0 scoreline, ending 1st half of the season with 2 points behind Besiktas and most importantly did it with good play.
It is true that Kayserispor didnt provide much resistance to its opponent, but this blog always focussed into what side does itself regardless what opponent does, and it did look like that Fenerbahce didnt only come out to get win but get with providing positive attacking game with providing organisation with fast tempo game. One of the main statistics which proves this is for side getting highest number of passes during this season not letting Kayserispor to get control of the game and doing its best for Kayserispor not to get any confident control as opponent didnt show much. It does look like Mesut Ozil does provide right motivation to rest of the side as most players would need to be on highest level when he joins, especially who play in his position. Meanwhile, Atilla Szalai who played his 1st game in his new club did show great preparedness and even through opponent didnt provide much issues, he did look to be highly focused and understanding of his role. Even this game is not good reference, he still provided good potential for his defensive position.
Kayserispor on their return didnt provide much resistance to opponent with also conceding an early goal and possibly showing too much respect. Even through Kayserispor is located at risk position it did get good results recently,so such poor game could be slightly surprising.
Fenerbahce provided one of its best performance during this season with focussing into high tempo attacking game and without doubt did end at high note with being 2 points behind leaders Besiktas.
Besiktas showed strong character against Goztepe.
Besiktas which looked to be pretty tired from recent games still provided crucial character against Goztepe with getting back from 1:0 scoreline to win game with 2:1 scoreline during 2nd half, hence ending 1st half of season as league leaders.
During January period which does provide very intense games with tight schedule, Besiktas did look to be least affected until yesterday but it did provide some signs of fatique during game yesterday. Interestingly Besiktas did provide better 1st half which it did lose but not being in same level during 2nd half. Without doubt, this comeback among Goztepe also showing signs of fatique on their part during 2nd half, did come from focus and willingness to win game which without doubt does provide important character when finding for title especially when game is not going as planned. Besiktas with realising that there is long time until end of the season, does provide high performance and being closest right now who could be noted that provides league winners performance.
With Besiktas having long-awaited week break it would be able to work in better conditions to Trabzonspor game which would be big advantage to them for sure.
Galatasaray 1:0 Football Field
Galatasaray without doubt did get very important win against Yeni Malatyaspor as it didnt only struggle against tough opponent but also into football field which been in pretty poor condition.
In fact, with all respect to Yeni Malatyaspor which does occassionally show good performance, field condition has been most crucial barrier for Galatasaray as it couldnt provide high tempo and creative game but despite of that did have control of the ball with some lack of creating opportunities. It did need to be showing some extra effort and extra creativity with good shot from far for goal to come in such field conditions and it did manage to do that with Ryan Babel. Its been important for Galatasaray to get this win as it kept 5 point difference against leaders Besiktas and get crucial goal in game which did look like to be going for draw. This game did been also good lesson as it could be played in similar condition possibly in this season again.
This win for Galatasaray is being well-fought with finding solution of this difficult condition of the field thanks to Ryan Babel goal.
