What happened in Turkish football today? 30/03/2022



Turkey lost due of poor defensive game against Italy.

Turkey has lost to Italy during international friendly game with 3:2 scoreline and even through it wasnt much absent from opponent, it did provide pretty poor defensive game with conceding all goals from those mistakes.

To some extend, it could be even mentioned that Turkey did get into more dangerous opportunities but couldnt overpass Donnarumma who has been in very good form and to some extend has been least player who been affected from getting loss to Norhern Macedonia during semi-final game. It needs to be mentioned however that Turkey did get good opportunity to get its first win against its opponent due of Italy been demotivated more than them, coming with lots of young players and also finding goal on 4th minute but it did show poor defensive game as all conceded goals did come from those poor mistakes. Possibly 3-4-3 formation is not working well for this national team and Stefan Kuntz would need to go through with some revision.

Turkey had an opportunity to identify its weakest points during game and it did look like they been mainly defense. 

Mehmet Baykan resigns from his TFF post.

TFF adminsitrator Mehmet Baykan did resign from his post after arbitration committee has cancelled decision from Central Referee Committee cancelled taking away from list of 13 referees with 10 weeks left on the season.

Mehmet Baykan states that with being responsible for making such decision, he was among ones who didnt take into stance that this decision could be turned around by arbitration committee and hence this decision of not including 13 referees for last 10 weeks havent been done rightly. Since he was one of the responsible, failing to take this account has led for him for resignation since he finds himself not being able to make similar decision. To some extend, this decision could also give signs that there is issues within TFF administration and it would be interesting to see if some more resignation would be taking place in this administration.

Mehmet Baykan is being 1st name who accepts this process has been done in poor manner and time would show if some more would be taking similar stance.

Mesut Ozil is waiting for final decision from his club regarding his future.

Fenerbahce player Mesut Ozil agent Erkut Sogut  has announced that Fenerbahce decision to take way his player out of squad is being preliminary decision and they awaiting for final decision.

Decision for taking away from squad of Mesut Ozil as would been expected has become one of the most discussed issues at Turkish football and Erkut Sogut has stated that this is not yet being final decision and player is still being focussed into club continuing training seperately. Sogut adds that player is not considering to lesave side until his contract would not be over 2025 and right now club is expecting for final decision to be made between parties stating that sadly this kind of issues does happen within clubs. 

Therefore, it would be needed time now to wait what decision would Fenerbahce made regarding Mesut Ozil and Ozan Tufan and how this would effect into future of both players at club.
