What happened in Turkish football today? 06/01/2022



Besiktas ends previous season with triple.

Besiktas has won Turkish Super Cup 2022 after beating Antalyaspor with 4:2 on penalty kicks after 120 minutes game ended with 1:1 scoreline as Atiba Hutchinson became player of the game.

Besiktas did provide strong performance during 1st half to some extend even through both sides has been far from high tempo and did lack high possession but Besiktas did look to be better side which led for goal on 39th minute from Atiba Hutchinson, but Besiktas did show some signs of tiredness during 2nd half of the game as opponent which hardly showed any game during 1st half has turned around game with creating some opportunities and with such pressure did led mistake from Hutchinson. Besiktas continued to be showing some decline as game came towards end but with strong performance of Ersin Destanoglu during penalties and also better readiness led for win at penalties.

Besiktas hence did end to some extend previous season with triple and did found some motivation for upcoming games during this unsuccessful season.

Antalyaspor showed some good game from 2nd half.

Antalyaspor following very poor 1st half, due of some changes on half time has provided much more aggressive game on 2nd half which led game to go until penalty.

It did look like Antalyaspor does consider to win Super Cup during 1st half with showing pretty low tempo game on 1st half but with some changes on half-time it did turn around this game and got crucial goal from own goal from Hutchinson which did come from providing strong pressure rather then mistake from Besiktas player. During extra-time both sides started showing signs of tiredness which did look even more during penalty kicks as it didnt convert two penalties with one saved by Ersin Destanoglu and other one being hit into high posts. Still, Antalyaspor starting from 2nd half did provide some good game and been unlucky on penalties.

Antalyaspor didnt provide necessarily good game but did show some fighting spirit from 1st half with willing to get this cup.

Trabzonspor are coming out to game as strong favourites.

Turkish Super League would be resuming with league leaders game against last spot side Yeni Malatyaspor, with Trabzonspor coming as strong favourites.

Trabzonspor is currently both mentally and confidence is focussed into winning this season title with keeping feet on ground and without doubt playing with last spot side which is currently showing very poor game, it would need to win this game if it wants this title with all respect to opponent. Even through Trabzonspor during recent games does show some signs of pragmatic game, it would likely show attacking game when looking into level of opponent with all respect to them.

Yeni Malatyaspor would try to resist, but Trabzonspor are being strong favourites without doubt.
