What happened in Turkish football today? 04/05/2021

 

Fenerbahce keeps its title hopes arrive.

Fenerbahce has regained 2nd spot and kept its 5 point difference against Besiktas as we are entering to last 3 weeks with winning Erzurumspor with 3:1 scoreline with finding all goals during 1st 15 minutes.

Without doubt, fast tempo start of the game by Fenerbahce did make things easier for them with getting back-to-back opportunities which led for penalty goal and 2 other goals as game progressed. Without doubt, Fenerbahce did show one of their best performances during this season with providing confident attacking game during 1st half but did reduce its tempo during 2nd half which did let for Erzurumspor to be focussing into possible comeback to the game and with finding goal towards did rise tempo and could even scored 2nd goal on 88th minute which without doubt would be providing stressful moment for Fenerbahce. Side still has some issues towards end of game which does come into difficult season but still rises question of side physicality.

Without doubt, Fenerbahce did get very important and would now wait for result during Besiktas and Galatasaray game would identify their aims to last 2 weeks.

Ricardo Gomes and Novikovas are taking out of squad.

Erzurumspor did put its players Ricardo Gomes and Novikovas due of disrespectful behaviour towards club's head coach Yilmaz Vural during Super League 39th week game against Fenerbahce.

Following game, Yilmaz Vural did announce that Ricardo Gomes didnt want to enter into field as substitute due of made-up injury and with Novikovas using foul language towards him when being substitued in half-time stating that foreign players does show some disrespectul behaviour compare to Turkish players. Without doubt, such action from players should not be tolerated at any condition and without doubt club did an important decision as all decisions from players needed to be respected. Without doubt, both players did cross the line and got right punishment. In addition, club is fighting for survival and should provide togetherness not such actions.

Without doubt such actions from players is unexpectable and should be treated in such actions at any club.

Salih Ucan had successful operation on broken bone.

Alanyaspor player Salih Ucan has got through successful injury after getting serious injury next to his eye which led for broke of bone.

As injury did come up during both players fighting to get ball, it needs to be noted that Kasimpasa player still did show dangerous game with rising his leg too high which led for his boots to be hitting in very sensible area which did let player to be getting into serious condition and taken into hospital immediately to check his condition. As he did broke bone, even if operation been successful, its been pretty clear that he is likely to end this season. Salih Ucan without doubt needs to look after himself for fast recovery for such unwanted injury. 

Once again this injuries does happen in football but their could have some unwanted consequences and we wish fast recovery to Ucan.
