What happened in Turkish football today? 14/08/2022



Alanyaspor has shown strong character against Besiktas.

Alanyaspor without doubt has shown an incredible character against Besiktas as it has managed to draw game 3:3 while being down 3:0 at the end of the 1st half at the game which could be best game of whole season.

Besiktas has manage to score 3 goals in duration of first 30 minutes with providing tempo of the game and among scoring 3 goals has created even more chances. In fact, after 3:0 it has continued at providing strong and confident attacking but red card by Emrecan Uzunhan, which did come from 2 needless yellow cards due of providing risky game in defensive area without doubt has provided confidence which has been raised with goal which came in the 41st minute. With Alanyaspor which likes to play positive and attacking game, to give such opportunity would has always been dangerous for Besiktas and hence Alanyaspor did use this factor and has dominated during whole 2nd half. Besiktas could be blamed for reasons why it didnt manage to keep it leadership but main blame should be going towards Uzunhan.

Alanyaspor even through did have nightmare of the game with conceding 3 goals during 30 minutes and even through got advantage from Emrecan Uzunhan being sending off, has shown incredible character which later for very impressive comeback. This result would provide significant confidence to side in upcoming weeks.

Besiktas has lost 2 points against Alanyaspor after having an incredible positive side but red card by Emrecan Uzunhan has changed entirely game.  

Galatasaray attacks were not creative too much.

Galatasaray has lost its first game during this season as it has greeted its home supporters at Super League 2nd week game against Giresunspor after it has conceded from simple defensive mistake.

As it is known, Galatasaray did start following season with title aims but it didnt provide needed performance and creativity in attack which has led them difficulty at finding goals against highly organised defensive side. Meanwhile, Giresunspor has been side which did provide strong performances against big Istanbul clubs at their own field and has shown such performance once again. It needs to be mentioned that Galatasaray were not also effective in attack during previous games, and even through there is still time it does look like that tactically it needs to improve an attacking game with showing stronger and organised typed of attacks.

Galatasaray are still not in level which it seeks for and it would need to solve this problems as soon as it can for sure.

Fenerbahce will aim to improve attacking game against Kasimpasa.

With Fenerbahce only winning 1 game in duration of 5 official games, it would be aiming to focus into providing much more stronger attacking game against Kasimpasa and it does look like opponent is suitable for this.

Even through there were expectations from Jorge Jesus to provide much more attacking game in this season, it needs to be mentioned that there is not much difference in sides performance which to some extend again raises questions if issue at the team are not connected to coaches. Still, it would be important for side to focus into much more attacking game and start finding goals, and this likely would be most important factor agaisnt Kasimpasa. Also, it would be also important for side to regain confidence and motivation prior to Austria Vienna game at the Europa League knockout stage.

Fenerbahce hence likely would see this game as new beginning for them but it needs to focus into attack to find result.
