Galatasaray got historical win against Manchester United
Galatasaray has got an impressive win against Manchester United during Champions League at Old Trafford with 3:2 scoreline and that is taking account that it was losing game twice and didnt also convert penalty kick from Mauro Icardi.
It needs to be stated that it has been tough game for Galatasaray as Manchester United which didnt provide very good performance during this season has been expected to be doing so in this game and there were some moments during game, especially during 2nd half where they did provide strong pressure until penalty kick which has led for Manchester United to get red card which did play a key role in such comeback. It needs to be stated that one of the key players has been Kerem Akturkoglu which did show some good and confident performance as among founding 2nd equaliser he did also create many chances and has played an important role for side attacking game for 90 minutes. Meanwhile, in similar manner as was case against Istanbulspor, Mauro Icardi didnt convert penalty kick but did found a goal in few minutes which has ended up being a decider. It needs to be stated that key role for Galatasaray is that it has stayed focussed and has used its chances in effective manner.
Manchester United as been noted did provide some issues towards Galatasaray where it one point it did dominate game but despite of that it has become clear once again that it does have serious issues which for them would be growing even more for Erik ten Hag especially.
Hence, Galatasaray did get an important win as it also continued undefeated run during this season and has also put an important win for getting out of the group stage with beating one of its main opponents.
Ankaragucu has appointed Emre Belozoglu for 2-years.
Ankaragucu has announced its new head coach as Emre Belozoglu next day after terminating contract with Tolunay Kafkas as Belozoglu did sign 2-year contract with team which does have strong fan base and expectations.
Even through Ankaragucu is being mediocre side in this Super League without much aims apart of winning Turkish Cup, it does have strong fan base and one of the leading teams at the capital and hence Emre Belozoglu would be joining team with lots of passion and expectations and hence would not seen to be drop of level for him. Belozoglu is being among new generation of coaches in Turkey and did show some good performance so far both at Fenerbahce and Basaksehirspor and hence it could be noted that team did get good coach and he has all signs to be getting some successful results and improve performance level with focussing into attacking game as he did in his previous clubs.
Hence, Ankaragucu did sign crucial coach Emre Belozoglu who could provide some strong and positive performance in his new club for sure.
Turkish National Team close to appoint Nuri Sahin and Burak Yilmaz as assistant coaches.
Turkish National Team are reported to be getting close at appointing both Besiktas assistant coach Burak Yilmaz and Antalyaspor head coach Nuri Sahin as assistant coaches for Vincenzo Montella with an aim to reduce criticism for appointing foreign coach.
There has been pretty much criticism from Turkish media for appointing foreign referees and hence with an attempt to provide names which would be more familiar with Turkish football and possibly to reduce this criticism, Nuri Sahin and Burak Yilmaz has been main targets for TFF to be appointed for this position. It needs to be mentioned that Burak Yilmaz has started his coaching career in this season with Senol Gunes at Besiktas while Nuri Sahin could be also seen as relatively new and hence this could be seen as risky ,it could also bring some fresh touches for national team if appointment would happen.
With reports that deal is close to be made both names would provide an important help to Montella and help side to become competitive side with an aim to get to Euro 2024.
