Galatasaray got 10th win back-to-back with win against Giresunspor.
Galatasaray continues its impressive winning run at the league as it has managed to get an away win against Giresunspor with 4:0 scoreline even through it needs to be mentioned that it did struggle until lucky goal from Dries Mertens.
It needs to be mentioned that things did turn around much simpler than expected at such crucial game as Giresunspor tends to be providing strong performance against big 3 clubs and to some extend until mid of 2nd half despite of not creating many opportunities did show why its being such tough opponent. Galatasaray when looking into statistics has been dominating game but there were times during 1st half where it has shown slow tempo. Still, with getting a winning habit as it won 10th league game back-to-back, which is being almost 1/4 of the season and seems to be team to beat even through today's performance still shows that it is being beatable team regardless of scoreline as it didnt show high dominance. One of the important and positive aspects from Galatasaray has been for Dubois, Rashica and Yusuf Akgun to score their first goal and hence it would be important to provide confidence in upcoming weeks.
Giresunspor didnt provide resistance which has been expected from them when looking how it shows performance against top sites but it needs to be mentioned that it didnt come out to the game with good form and also had an important absences especially at front area which been clear with quality of shots.
Galatasaray hence continues its winning streak and even through there are some criticism at level performance despite of its winning run, this factor has shown once again that it is getting important wins which could bring title in the end of the season.
Trabzonspor continues its poor performance at away games.
Trabzonspor continues showing poor performance at the away games as Hatayspor has got 2:1 comeback win thanks to the 2 goals which has been scored at the start of the 2nd half and had provided strong fighting spirit during whole game.
Despite of scoring an early goal with great organised by Barthi on 9th minute, Trabzonspor has shown in general pretty passive game even through it did raise tempo during end of the 2nd half but couldnt find that crucial goal to get at least 1 point. One of the issues from Trabzonspor that after finding a goal it has shown passive and low tempo game and with Hatayspor showing good performance in recent weeks to some extend and also away game issues at Trabzonspor has always kept chances for Hatayspor to show such comeback. With being 10 points behind league leaders right now, Trabzonspor would need to go throw why its showing such ineffective poor game at away games and would need to find solutions to this issue as they chances for league title will be getting less and less. Therefore, Trabzonspor continues showing poor game without providing needed effort and fighting spirit at away games.
Hatayspor didnt show very good performance during 1st half of the game with looking too passive but as been noted above with Trabzonspor away game performance Hatayspor has always been at the game. With showing right attitude during 2nd half which they did in start of 2nd half and has deserved win without doubt.
Trabzonspor hence continues showing poor performance at away games and are getting furter and further away from title race.
Besiktas got impressive win but still needs to improve in some aspects
Besiktas got an important win against Alanyaspor during Super League 21st week with controlling whole game with 3:0 scoreline at the game where Cenk Tosun has scored 2 goals and continues to be main forward player.
Despite of getting confident win, this blog doesnt agree with many Turkish football pundits that Besiktas has dominated game for 90 minutes and still has signs to improve its performance especially at defence. It needs to be mentioned that game has become excited in all parts of the game as for most amount of time it has been played at mediocre tempo. Still, Besiktas did make clear that it did come out for game as Vincent Aboubkakar has been extra motivated for scoring goal and in fact he did score once but its been disallowed due of offside rule. Turning point meanwhile of the game has been penalty goal by Cenk Tosun as it provided confidence as prior to that Alanyaspor did create some chances and continued to do so until it conceded 2nd goal.
It needs to be stated that it has been good win for Besiktas but as team they would need to improve as Senol Gunes stated after game.
