What happened in Turkish football today? 12/09/2022



Besiktas couldnt pass Basaksehirspor defence as it lost its 1st game of season.

Besiktas loses first game during this season as Basaksehirspor continues its league without conceding goal and has proved why its being one of them, as it has shown strong and organised defensive game for 90 minutes.

It needs to be mentioned that Besiktas has provided high tempo and attacking game for 90 minutes with creating high number of the chances but Basaksehirspor has showed strong defensive game without letting Besiktas to feel confident. It needs to be mentioned that Besiktas did come out for victory and has made all plans accordingly as it pushed game forward for 90 minutes with going through especially fast during midfield. Despite of conceding goal from Traore, it has only led for one chance to the opponent which could be due both with how focussed Besiktas been on attack as has been mentioned above and also game plan of Basaksehirspor which been focussed to prevent. It needs to be mentioned also that both Weghorst and Nkoudou which did get some opportuniites did look to be quiite ineffective at the attack and lacked last touches compare to previous games.

Basaksehirspor as been mentioned has provided very strong defensive game and didnt show any signs of being switched off or tiredness and to some extend has proven how important is defensive game as their got win only with one chance and has mainly defended opponents. It does look like, opponents of Basaksehirspor would need to give lots of effort to find goal against opponent.

Besiktas hence lots its first league game despite of showing strong defensive but did lack with last touches and also overpassing impressive opponent defence.

Adana Demirspor continues showing strong and effective performance.

Adana Demirspor has got well-deserved win against Trabzonspor with 3:2 scoreline as it has dominated whole game with creating high number of the chances among scoring 3 goals and provided lots of pressure to Trabzonspor.

Trabzonspor as it is known has poor start of this season as it fails to not only get results in recent weeks but also to get an organised and effective performance which it has shown in previous season. Being in such condition, meeting with Adana Demirspor which is being without doubt one of the in form team and especially at away would provide difficult performance. Trabzonspor tried to show some reaction compare to previous games and it has managed to do that as it did find equaliser twice during game and arguably didnt have time from 3rd conceded as it came on last minute of the game. Therefore, this fighting spirit would make head coach Abdullah Avci but when looking as whole performance, Trabzonspor is still being far from previous season. One of the positives for them also being openning goal for Umut Bozok.

Adana Demirspor as been mentioned is being one of the teams which is showing very strong and effective performance so far during this season and it has continued to do so against Trabzonspor. Among finding high number of the chances, it has also scored great 3 goals which shows hwo high in level side is.

Trabzonspor are hence are being right now in the crises and it does look like team would need to find solution if it wants to turn around its this poor season so far.

Kasimpasa has shown impressive improvement at attack but needs to improve at defence.

After having pretty strong and successful transfer window especially on last day of it, Galatasaray has also shown some strong performance against Kasimpasa especially at the attack.

It needs to be mentioned that since start of the season Galatasaray had shown strongest attacking game as it did found 3 goals against Kasimpasa and could have scored much more goals if it had more luck or last touches. It has been especially important for Kerem Akturkoglu to find 2 goals during 2nd half especially when taking account that he didnt necessarily show very effective performance during 1st half of the game as it characterised whole his season. Therefore, Galatasaray did provide some positive thinking attacking game. However, downside for side has been pretty poor defensive game as same effectiveness and organisation hasnt been seen at defence which describes of side conceding 2 goals and let Kasimpasa to create more chances. Therefore, this game did show that side did improve attackingly but needs also to do same for defence.

Galatasaray did get an important win against Kasimpasa in sense of morale and providing good game but it needs to work on defence for sure.
