What happened in Turkish football today? 12/03/2021


 

Besiktas showed strong determination against Basaksehirspor.

Besiktas did get very important win against Basaksehirspor with 3:2 scoreline as it been literally goal duello between both sides where Besiktas has did their best to get win while Basaksehirspor give their strongest effort to get at least draw.

Game been performed with Besiktas dominating possession which did come out partly for style of play and partly due of Basaksehirspor allowing for opponent to control game with looking opportunities with effective counter-attacks. It should be noted that to some extend Besiktas didnt provide much amount of dangerous opportunities with having issue to find openning goal. However, surprisingly when it did score and later conceded, rather then having same scenario of 0:0 it did provide more attacking football after 1:1 and 2:2, being more motivated when conceding goal. One of the criticism which could be done to Besiktas however could been for letting Basaksehirspor to get into high number of dangerous opportunities even through it didnt have much but this could be due of main focus given to attack but still needs to be worked on as it conceded goal like this. Still, its been important win with side always playing for winning game without losing concentration and this win would provide them high motivation.

Basaksehirspor meanwhile did provide very good resistance and even through did allow opponent to control ball it did provide strong counterattacks with equalising twice. It could be noted that despite of loss this game could be turning point for them in positive manner.

Besiktas did get very important win and without doubt with such determination did find themselves closer to aim for title. 

Galatasaray players need to focus to Kayserispor game.

Galatasaray would be looking for win against Kayserispor during Super League 30th week game after losing 5 points in previous 2 games, but it would be interesting to see how side would be responding after Younes Belhanda contract termination.

There are reports around Turkish sports media that many players at the club are not into ways how Younes Belhanda been send away from club which could be also seen from farewell messages been send to him when he left side. With such dissapointing from players there might be loss of concentration.Of course, there is possibility for players to show some reaction as protest but with team being at title race it might not happen. With losing 5 points in previous games and losing leadership to Besiktas, would mean it would need to win game and hence taking such action in this game could cost them title. Kayserispor on their part is aware that both Galatasaray are not showing great game wiht also such issue so it could be expect that their could try their luck to get surprising result.

Without Galatasaray would need to focus for this game entirely in such weeks, but could players manage to do is being uncertain.

Hatayspor confirms interest from Fenerbahce to Aaron Boupendza

Hatayspor CEO Lutfi Savas has stated that, he would be considering to be selling Aaron Bounpendza in summer transfer window but does expect to raise offer to 12 million euro while other offer 10 million euro.

With Hatayspor to be playing friendly game against Fenerbahce both during international team break and also openning of its stadium on 27th March, has rised talks for transfer of Boupendza to Fenerbahce. Savas did mention that there is interest from Fenerbahce, but not direct negotiations especially regarding fee didnt take place as would be expected is it still some time until transfer window. Lutfi Savas did mention that club does have good connection with Fenerbahce which does provide some help for Boupendza being step closer to them, but still did hint directly that he will not be sold for cheap fee. 

Therefore, it does look like Boupendza will be among priorities to Fenerbahce at transfer front in summer and this page would follow story.
