What happened in Turkish football today? 22/09/2022



Turkey has got surprising and dissapointing draw against Luxembourg

Even through Turkish National Team has got into Group B and play-off mini-tournament ticket with 1 point against Liechenstain, but it needs to be mentioned that this 3:3 result has been suprising and dissapointing outcome without doubt.

As it was stated several times in this Nations League, there were statements that Turkey doesnt belong to the League C and to prove that it would need to win all games with scoring high number of goals and without conceding. In defence, to head coach Stefan Kuntz and players this has been achieved so far until this game, but this game has been turn into entirely 180 degrees with Luxembourg has been side which did keep game in between. It needs to be mentioned that Luxembourg has been most difficult side and is being on significant rise, but Turkey needed to get game into more upper hand which it didnt manage and has led for opponents to have high number with 3 goals coming either entirely or partly due of Turkey mistake. This game has been an important lesson for Turkish National Team and Stefan Kuntz as such outcome will not be acceptable even through it did get through. Only positive point has been great goal from Ismail Yuksek who has scored a great goal.

It has been known that Luxembourg did come to the field with maximum at getting draw and didnt even had an aim to win game but in all fairness, they are been one which did lose this opportunity as their conceded from 85th minute. Luxembourg meanwhile is not in level of Turkey, but it side which improves and it shows it does achieve that well.

Turkey did get an initial aim to get back to the League B but this outcome would be unacceptable and has been dissapointing for all aspects.

Dele Alli has resumed training sessions.

Besiktas player Deli Alli has resumed training session at his club after recovering from injury which without doubt would be seen as positive news especially prior to derby game against Fenerbahce after national team break.

Dele Alli has been loaned to club as one of the key players during this season and has arleady shown good adaptation to the side which could be seen generally during training sessions and also during his first few games at the club and therefore if he would be ready and playing against Fenerbahce he could be pushing forward his side without doubt and hence this should be seen as positive development for sure.

Meanwhile, it also expected for Racchid Ghezzal to recover in short period of time and be ready for Fenerbahce game.

Kenny Sony had an operation.

Hatayspor has announced that its player Keny Sonny has went through operation due of his injury, as struggling side would look into replacenent of him in upcoming weeks.

With being at last spot with 1 point and appointing new coach, club at least would be hoping to be having its full squad as preparation for season to be resumed in upcoming games so Volkan Demirel would be focussing into using alternatives at the position as he would be getting knowing players more during this duration and he is likely would be focussed into how to get maximum for his current players.

Keny Sonny injury surely will not be welcomed by him but he would be focussed to find solution which he can.
