What happened in Turkish football today? 30/07/2022



Trabzonspor got confident win against Sivasspor and got Turkish Super Cup.

Trabzonspor got confident win against Sivasspor and wins 16th Turkish Super Cup title with 4:0 scoreline and has started 2022-23 season at very high note with proving itself to be once again main contender for title during next season.

It needs to be noted that Trabzonspor didnt start game well as it did allow Sivasspor to control game and provide much more attacking game but starting from middle of 1st half start showing much more attacking game with looking into opportunities in the attack which led them to find some opportunities which led for goal from Cornelius which did come from great organing attacking game. Trabzonspor did stay highly focus as game developed in the end of the 1st half and start 2nd half and with finding 2nd goal once again Cornelius has got full control of the game and start providing much more pressure to Trabzonspor. With being much better side when coming into squad, Trabzonspor without doubt did use that advantage pretty effectively during 2nd half and didnt let Sivasspor which been demotivated from scoreline provided much more attacking game and when looking into more opportunities and could even score more than 4 goals.

It needs to be mentioned that Sivasspor did start game well with looking for some chances during first minutes of the game but even during that moments didnnt create much opportunities and this has led into control towards Trabzonspor. Sivasspor it needs to be mentioned didnt provide too bad performance but ti make clear that it still not being able to compete with top clubs, an area which it would need to focus on prior to 1 week before start of the week. This has been good test game for Sivasspor in that sense as it helped to find its weaknesses even more than advantages. One of the main issues for the side has been to lose concentration and motivation after conceding 2nd goal, an area which it needs to especially focus on in upcoming training session.

Title winners Trabzonspor has started new season with Super Cup title with dominating game against Sivasspor and without doubt did show among main title contenders for upcoming season.

Koc states that he would not apologize for events at Dinamo Kiev game.

Fenerbahce CEO Ali Koc has stated that he would not apologize to Ukraine for supporters chanting Vladimir Putin during Champions League 3rd qualifying round game against Dinamo Kiev inclining language used by Ukraine foreign minister and Ankara ambasador.

Ali Koc once again stated that he doesnt support and tolerate chants which were given by supporters stating that club has been against war from beginning and also played friendly game against Shakhtar Donetsk which it used as prove that it was against and wasnt supporting activities which were done by Russia. It also has reminded an events which were done by Ukrainians when Turkish clubs played at Kiev with supporting showing some aggresive behaviour and hence stated that there is double standards from media and UEFA. With such period when whole community is against Russia and all associatiations it would be interesting how worldwide community would take this statement.

Even through Koc is right that throwing blame to whole club for those events to whole club might be wrong, it would not be right decision not to apologize as if he does that he would show more that he doesnt support such actions.

Istanbulspor signs New York RB player David Jensen.

Istanbulspor has signed New York RB goalkeeper David Jensen hence making its goalie stronger and more competitive level for Super League.

Without doubt, goalkeeping position is being one of the key position to get successful results at the goalkeeper position and signing player like Jensen who is having some experience and same time is not being very expensive would be seen as good one and could provide some trust to the goal when it has main aim to stay on the league in this season. As long as Jensen gets adapted to the team and also to league in short period it would be reasonable for him to become main goalkeeper and gain some important points for side with saves.

Hence, such signing for Istanbulspor could help to solve its goalkeeping issue if he does fulfill his expectation which were set in the club.

Trabzonspor 4:0 Sivasspor
