What happened in Turkish football today? 18/10/2022



Fenerbahce always seeks for goals and attacking game.

Fenerbahce continues showing an effective performance at the Super League and getting back-to-back wins as this time it has won against Ankaragucu with 3:0 scoreline without raising tempo of the game too much.

With all respect to Ankaragucu, it was expected for Fenerbahce to get win against without much doubt but it needs to be mentioned that it has ended game at clean sheet against side which tends to score at every game almost. Stating that, it needs to be reminded that Ankaragucu did have 2 disallowed goals due of offside during 1st half. Fenerbahce didnt necesarilly provide dominant game against Ankaragucu and did have issues to get full tempo and control of the game during 1st half, but still it was visible that it would get win in the end of the game with how side did perform and confidence. Even when game does get slightly difficulty, Jorge Jesus does go through how to make an attacking game on his mind as was visible in this game during 2nd half.

Fenerbahce is without doubt is providing most eye-pleasant performance at the league and Basaksehirspor would have difficult game in upcoming week without doubt.

Galatasaray will play against Kastamonuspor at Turkish Cup.

Galatasaray are going to be first side among top 4 sides which would be starting its campaign at Turkish Cup as it would be meeting against Kastamonuspor which is being competing at 2nd league and is being close to relegation zone.

It would be expected for Galatasaray head coach Okan Buruk to come out to the game with big rotation providing playing time to substitutes and reservers among youngsters, even through there would be some possibility for some starting 11 to get some confidence and playing time to get on the field as side is not providing performance which Buruk is seeking for. Still, with playing much weaker opponent Galatasaray would have an opportunity to give some playing time to players which hardly get chance to play on field.

Galatasaray without doubt would be coming as favourites and are expected to get a confident win with providing some good experience to Kastamonuspor.

Galatasaray strong criticises VAR performance.

Galatasaray are continuing to show its protests towards performances of VAR with criticising harshly stating that VAR is not running well and is being worked against them purposefully.

Galatasaray is currently providing lots of criticism to VAR system as some results didnt go into the way and it does look like side unfortunately aims to hide its poor performance during recent weeks into refereeing which sadly is being old method at Turkish football especially by Turkish clubs. Even through there were some referee mistakes during this games, there are being mistakes at every game including into sides which are getting good results and hence such argument possibly aims to move actual reasons of Galatasaray poor game into something else.

In fact, Fenerbahce has criticised such statement with disrespecting Turkish football and pulling generally into backwards with such movements.
