What happened in Turkish football today? 18/10/2021



Referee decisions did affect Fenerbahce performance.

Turkish Super League 9th week game between Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce has been dominated, especially from latter perspective, from some interesting decisions which in view of Istanbul side did have direct impact of game.

It needs to be mentioned that this argument has been reasonably as prior to Kim Min Jae double yellow card on 24th minute and conceded goal which did come from this position, Fenerbahce has been better side with controlling game and finding early goal. However, its been total different game following 24th minute as it did play with strong Trabzonspor which as expected did come to get leadership. This blog would not get into question if Fenerbahce would won game if it stayed 11-on-11, but without doubt it did affect its game with providing strong defensive game with keeping scoreline at 1:1 until 84th minute with conceding goal from penalty position. It needs to be mentioned that despite of loss Fenerbahce did provide some good resistance to Trabzonspor and did provide some promising view especially at defence.

Fenerbahce could have lost game but it did provide some strong game with 10-on-11 and questionable sending off of Kim did provide some issues without doubt.

Trabzonspor provided strong pressure after 24th minute.

Trabzonspor on their part without doubt did use effectively of advantage of having an extra men, and taking events which took place during game did provide some good performance even through it did struggle before red card.

Even through Trabzonspor did get first opportunity during game it could be stated that it did lose some control of the game after conceding and did have issue with getting back to the game until 24th minute, after which with having extra player on the field did get full control of the game with providing strong attacking game and did try everything to turn game into 2:1. In fact, such pressure by them did lead for Fenerbahce to get penalty due of tiredness and loss of concentration and after scoring due of extra men did look side which would win game even without Yusuf Sari goal. Trabzonspor did use advantage of having extra men with gaining leadership in the standing and being only side without losing game after 9 weeks of the league.

Trabzonspor did provide strong game focussed to win without doubt and hence did gain important confidence for upcoming game against historical rivals.

Galatasaray got win with ineffective performance against Konyaspor.

Galatasaray without doubt did get very important win against Konyaspor despite of providing pretty poor performance during 2nd half without providing hardly any shots.

It needs to be noted that Galatasaray did start game in very good manner with providing strong attacking game but as game developed this domination has been reduced with getting to almost none as Konyaspor didnt user very good its opportunities which it got from opponent. Still, it was important to win such game despite of showing not very good performance as otherwise it would get even further from top sides especially as it would meet with Besiktas in upcoming week, as with this win it got into same points with title holders. Still, performance of club during 2nd half is being worried and it needs to show much better game against Lokomotiv Moscow and Besiktas.

Galatasaray did provide poor game but at least got strong self-confidence for upcoming weeks with motivation.
