What happened in Turkish football today? 05/03/2022



Konyaspor got crucial win against Galatasaray.

Konyaspor has secured its 2nd spot in the end of this week once again as it has won against Galatasaray with 2:0 scoreline thanks to two early goals as opponents didnt provide strong performance prior to Europa League game against Barcelona.

It needs to be mentioned that even through Galatasaray did win previous 2 games, it didnt provide strong and confident performance so its been how side would be responding against Konyaspor which even through has been at decline, did fight for 2nd spot and did see this game as strong turning point opportunity. Hence, Galatasaray has shown another game especially 1st half without controlling ball much and didnt create opportuniites while even through it looked more willingful during 2nd half, it wasnt not enough at all to find goals which it been seeking for. Therefore, it is clear that Galatasaray has some issues with technical game as Torrent still has issues to understand to let side to show strong performance of his side. Without doubt, Galatasaray needs to improve its performance against Barcelona if it wants to have any opportunities.

Konyaspor has started game with providing strong pressure to Galatasaray with focussing to get control of the game which it managed to do so within 20 minutes and provided strong pressure to Galatasaray and got important confidence for its fight for 2nd spot.

Galatasaray despite of winning last 2 games has provided poor performance against Konyaspor and has shown that it lacked strong performance against top clubs in the league.

Trabzonspor would focus to continue its top game against Fenerbahce.

Key game during Turkish Super League 28th week game without doubt will be between Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor without doubt but compare to its opponents Trabzonspor has an advantage of not risking everything.

Stating that and seeing how Trabzonspor both performs in recent games and also factor that so far it did only lose to Antalyaspor at the league, it would be coming out with focus to win game without doubt as it would be coming with much higher self-confidence and belief. Hence, even through any result during this game will not provide any harm to Trabzonspor with only moving date when it would win title in all honesty, it strong record so far in this season would mean that it would be aiming to do so. Hence, such belief and also providing performance similar to champions without doubt would provide strong motivation to the side. 

Once again, as Trabzonspor is not risking with everything it does provide confident champion like performance which would hence lead side to be favourite for this big game.

For Fenerbahce win against Trabzonspor is more important. 

Fenerbahce on other hand among focussing into continuing its winning streak of 2 games would also without doubt focus for win in its fight for 2nd spot which is being Champions League qualifier.

Fenerbahce hence is having much more in its hands for this game as it does need to get points to make its position for 2nd spot and also generally 4th spot into much more confident manner especially when Adana Demirspor did lose during this week. Therefore, risk would be given by Fenerbahce compare to Trabzonspor which would be playing much more calm game. In addition, issues which happened on previous game between sides as it believes that its been stolen from win would provide quite big confidence and motivation to the side and team would treat this game as motivational boost for rest of the season.

As been noted, Fenerbahce would need this win much more both for getting closer to 2nd spot aim and also gain important confidence for rest of the season.
