Kerem Akturkoglu keeps Galatasaray at title race.
Galatasaray has won Super League 35th week game against Goztepe with 3:1 scoreline in the game where Kerem Akturkoglu has become without doubt star of the game with becoming first Turkish player to get hat-trick for his club after 4 years.
Following not winning for 3 weeks and getting bit further from title race and also recieving criticism from club CEO Mustafa Cengiz, it was interesting how side would be responding from such atmosphere. Even through it didnt start game how it wished with conceding possibly best goal of this season from Diabate it did provide them turning point for side with Kerem Akturkoglu did get upper hand with scoring 3 goals in the game where Radamel Falcao and Mustafa Mohammed were not available with playing such crucial role in this game and provided image to become future star both for Galatasaray and Turkish football without doubt. It needs to be noted Galatasaray did provide great performance when coming out into game with having some issues both with players and morale and with Besiktas losing 2 points it did reduce point difference from Besiktas to 6 points with keeping themselves at title race.
Goztepe it needs to be noted started game with great performance with Diabate scoring very good goal which could become best goal of the season but didnt manage to continue high level game with every conceded goal getting further from concentration without doubt.
Galatasaray thanks to Kerem Akturkoglu hat-trick which without doubt did keep themselves at title race as we enter to last 7 games.
Trabzonspor has drawn again, this time against Hatayspor.
Trabzonspor continues to be providing draws back-to-back, this time getting 1:1 result against Hatayspor conciding on last minute with Aaron Boupendza from penalty kick as Trabzonspor is getting further from top 3 sides.
Even through Trabzonspor did score on 22nd minute with Djaniny and hence took game into leadership it is hard to state that side did provide full control of the game providing slow and ineffective game especially during 2nd half when Hatayspor did create opportunities back-to-back but couldnt find that crucial goal. In fact, it needs to be noted that game been played with limited amount of opportunities until 75th minute with Trabzonspor trying to play with reducing tempo possibly due of not winning in recent weeks. However, keeping game with 1:0 scoreline did been big mistake especially when Hatayspor does tend to provide strong attacking players Aaron Boupendza. It does need to be mentioned by the way this result has been not great outcome for both side as Trabzonspor focusses into top 3 spot while Hatayspor towards 5th spot.
Hatayspor meanwhile following recent 2 losses did provide some good reaction against Trabzonspor with providing its usual performance which it did tend in recent weeks, and did get goal on last minute from Boupendza penalty shot.
Trabzonspor therefore would need to find ways to start getting wins as draws could lead them to lose 4th spot.This seems to be most important issue which Abdullah Avci likely to be focussed on training sessions.
Besiktas showed signs of tiredness against Ankaragucu.
Besiktas did lose 2 points to side which aims to be staying in the league, Ankaragucu as game ended with 2:2 scoreline as Besiktas did concede 2 penalties from Paintsil in last 20 minutes without scoring themselves.
Due of intense scheduling and also have number of important injuries in the team Besiktas did look to be tired physically during whole game as we entering to a period where about 7 games would be played during 1 month which could provide some issues to Besiktas and every side in this league. There seems to be criticism towards Nkoudou penalty shot which been done in pretty calm manner on 2nd minute and even through without doubt its been poor and unexpectable penalty shot from player it didnt cost them game as Ankaragucu player Kutsiou did have own goals which did come in all fairness without his fault. Therefore, Besiktas did lose 2 points when it was leading with 2:0 and did provide too much relaxation and loss of concentration which without doubt did lead Ankaragucu to create opportunities and also get penalties. Meanwhile, Oguzhan Ozyakup who is expected to be missing 3 weeks did join into injury list especially at front.
Besiktas did lose its strong advantage and now would provide at least some hope both to Fenerbahce and Galatasaray as point difference with 2nd place Fenerbahce been reduced to 6 points.
