What happened in Turkish football today? 06/08/2022



Besiktas has started league with difficult win.

Besiktas has won its openning game of new season with 1:0 scoreline with Raccid Ghezzal on 90+6 minute even through it needs to be mentioned that the game didnt go as planned as opponent has shown more effective game.

Besiktas has started season with a win as it does have high aims during this season and focus into providing much stronger performance compare to previous season and fight for title. However, it needs to be mentioned that 1st game it didnt provide performance which has been as it didnt provide too much creative and attacking game especially when game has been 11-on-11 and it did look to be having some issues in defensive game as it was seen as weakest point also prior to game. Taking account that Besiktas tends to be showing dominating game at its home ground does raise some unexpected outcome for this game. Meanwhile, it needs to be mentioned that offside decision of Cenk Tosun, which has been right decision, did lead for player to lose concentration which led for 2 pretty needless yellow cards. Besiktas in the end did get win mainly thanks for having an extra men, but its performance were far away from what been expected from them.

Kayserispor hence did provide much more aggresive and tempo game with providing for most amount of the game strong defensive game and also great counter-attacks but did lack with last shots which does look to be an issue for not scoring goal tonight.

Besiktas did have difficulty with getting result which it seeked for but did get last minute goal thanks to detirmanation and using an advantage of extra men.

Trabzonspor started season with a win.

Title holders Trabzonspor have started new season with 2:0 win against promoted side Istanbul as it found two corner goals with headers from Cornelius and Denswill. However, depsite of win Trabzonspor performance did raise some questions.

With being 1st game of the season and also title holders coming into field quiet naturally has raised lots of interest in Turkish football community and it needs to be mentioned however that game didnt provide much expectations. It needs to be mentioned that game has been played in pretty slow tempo and even through due of quality Trabzonspor did look to be much effective and attacking game, it didnt provide much strong attacks during whole game and didnt create much opportunities. In addition, even through it did dominate during 1st half, it did let Istanbulspor to create some opportunities during 2nd half. Trabzonspor could have scored even more goals with getting such out of form opponent but didnt provide much pressure to opponent goal.

Hence, Trabzonspor did get win in the start of the season but coming to performance and effectiveness does rise some worries and questions.

Galatasaray will try to send strong message with game against Antalyaspor. 

Galatasaray are going to start season with pretty tough game against Antalyaspor who has been among surprising and on form sides during end of the season and without doubt would be aiming to start season similarly.

Meanwhile, with having very poor previous season, Galatasaray are hoping to be one of the main title contenders and hence will be aiming to start season with a win. To some extend, starting season with Antalyaspor which also have some high aims for this season would be good test for the side and also help for Turkish football followers to see how much Galatasaray are being on form at least in the start of the season. Galatasaray in addition, will not also focus to start season with a win but also provide good performance to send message everyone. In other side of the coin, Antalyaspor would also see this game would focus to send strong message to everyone that it aims to start season in similar manner it ended.

To some extend, this game could be seen as game of the week in sense of quality and both sides would be providing best game to start season both with good result and also performance.
