What happened in Turkish football today? 06/05/2023


 

Besiktas continues keep its title alive with win against Antalyaspor.

Besiktas does keep its vague chances for league title alive as it has continued its winning streak in the league going with getting 3:1 scoreline win against Antalyaspor with providing great comeback and performance during 2nd half.

One of the interesting aspects which has been seen at recent games at Besiktas is that it starts providing much more effective performance during 2nd half and also getting back while losing game with 1:0 scoreline. It needs to be mentioned that Besiktas didnt provide very good performance with letting Antalyaspor to provide much more effective performance with finding great header goal but once again Besiktas started showing much more attacking game. As those times, Besiktas did find an important 3 points with goals from Vincent Aboubakar and Cenk Tosun who is taking leadership once again to get crucial wins for the side. Besiktas has also moved ahead of Fenerbahce in the end of the game but it has been 2 extra games so therefore its chances for 2nd spot are being low.

Antalyaspor did have very good start of the game with providing good performance during 1st half with showing an attacking game but did lose effectiveness of the game during 2nd half and couldnt prevent Besiktas to show its comeback which could be seen normal due of recent form of the side.

Besiktas hence still finding themselves at the title race with this win but it would need to be very lucky as it would be awaiting for losses of Fenerbahce and Galatasaray at upcoming 4 games.

Fenerbahce would be getting good result against struggling Giresunspor.

Fenerbahce would be continuing its title race against Giresunspor as this game would be very important for its opponents which are aiming to stay on the league and would be seeking for at least 1 point. 

With playing game against Giresunspor earlier than Galatasaray, Fenerbahce would not be feeling at pressure too much and quite opposite would be aiming to provide to Galatasaray as with win it would get into same points with them. When taking account previous week, we could be seen that Fenerbahce does provide good and confident performance when playing before themselves. It needs to be mentioned that Giresunspor would be playing at least for 1 point and hence it would be playing mainly defensive game than providing too much attacks and hence Fenerbahce would be needed to provide some creative chances with attackers which it does pretty good but also would need to focus into providing good defence to prevent good chances from counter-attacks which does seem to be an issue in this season. 

Stating Fenerbahce would be coming out as favourites as an aim for title as it is known its being more pushing and motivating but still side would need to provide good defence to get good outcome.

Galatasaray considers to double Kerem Akturkoglu salary  

Galatasaray are considering to offer extension contract to its player Kerem Akturkoglu with providing double of his salary from 10 million TL to 20 million TL as many sides are showing interests towards him.

Kerem Akturkoglu  is continues to be one of the key players at the side in this seasons with providing an important number of assists and finding lots of key goals as he did in previous season and is also being 3rd captain at the team. Therefore those factors does show by itself why club and supporters would like to see player for long time and does provide offer at which he wouldnt like to move to European side as he does recieve lots of interests and likely offers in upcoming transfer window. It is known that Akturkoglu wants to move to Europe as soon as he can, as most potential Turkish players but he also known for good family kind relationship with Galatasaray and hence if his club would offer to stay for another season at good condition, he would be postponing his move to Europe for some years.

Therefore, it is expected that Galatasaray and Akturkoglu would be able to make extension deal prior to summer transfer window and make European clubs issue to transfer him more difficult.
