Besiktas does have issues with openning closed defence.
Besiktas didnt manage to get into high tempo which been used from side in recent weeks during Super League 23rd week as it drawn with 1:1 scoreline where Antalyaspor did provide defensive game against title contender.
It needs to be mentioned that Besiktas opponent Antalyaspor did provide highly defensive game which one again provided some issues to them as it does issue with oppening sides which does puts bus into their own goal. When taking account that it did conceded from Bayraktar header goal did make tasks even more harder for Besiktas to provide high tempo with also finding one goal from corner with Domagoj Vida. Even through Besiktas tends to criticise its opponents for providing highly focussed defensive game, it needs to be aware that sides which are not as strong with them would provide defensive game and its job for them to find key for such closed defence and hence would be needing to find solution with tactics. Without doubt hence Besiktas didnt provide as it did look tired from on-going difficult scheduling and its been game following loss to Trabzonspor where it played with high tempo.
Even through Antalyaspor did provide defensive game which did show boring football but it would be unneccesary to criticise them as their everyone else play for getting points. This tactic does work for Antalyaspor and its job for opponents to find solution.
Besiktas didnt provide expected right direction against Antalyaspor which does show reduction of level of performance and its now for Sergen Yalcin to find ways to solve this as it might continue losing points.
Fenerbahce gets results despite of not great attacking game.
Fenerbahce continues its leadership in the league following win against Hatayspor with 2:1 scoreline but in same time has been highly criticised for providing slow game without much opportunities and showing too much defence.
It is true that Fenerbahce are not providing very good performance in sense of attacking game where high hope is given to goalkeepers but if its leaders right now it means it does something well.In fact, when Fenerbahce start playing more compact and controllable with giving attention to defence it did lose even more points. Stating that it needs to be admitted Hatayspor are been much more creative side especially 2nd half with creating high dangerous opportunities with Altay Bayindir providing very strong performance providing important saves. Some pundits state that game ended more Altay 2 Hatayspor 1, but this will be unfair to Thiam and attackers which led for Hatayspor to score own goal. However, it is true he did kept Bayindir. Fenerbahce would be expected to show right tactical game for Galatasaray so it might not be right to provide this game as reference for derby game.
Fenerbahce didnt show very good game but it continues to be getting point and kept its leadership in the league as difficult January period does come to the end.
Ryan Donk played crucial role for win against Basaksehirspor.
Galatasaray has got very important win against title holders Basaksehirspor during Super League 23rd week game as their opponents continue to show dissapointing performance while Galatasaray got important motivation boost before derby game.
Without doubt main player of the game is being Ryan Donk with providing incredible assist to Henry Onyekuru during 1st goal and hence playing most important role and also scoring great header from corner kick. With taking account he is original position is being midfielder, he did get to defensive role during recent games and without doubt does provide very good performance without giving too much opportunities to Basaksehirspor. Still, it needs to be noted that Galatasaray did have issues to get into high tempo and control of the game but 2nd goal did break its opponent which without doubt did provide easiness for Galatasaray to get more opportunities and control full game. Meanwhile, Henry Onyekuru continues showing top game without giving any signs he left side and didnt play for long time.
Galatasaray without doubt did get high motivation for Fenerbahce derby game but it does need to show top game which it doesnt do frequently in all fairness.
