What happened in Turkish football today? 06/10/2023



Trabzonspor continues to get control of the game especially at away games.

Adana Demirspor has raised for now to 3rd spot at the league with minumum win against Trabzonspor with providing a patient and controllable game against Trabzonspor which fails to provide strong and effective performance with lacking tactical game.

Both unstable and poor performance at away games is being continuing by Trabzonspor and due of that it did come out at the game it was coming out as underdogs to Adana Demirspor and hence did lose game. Saying that it could be unfair to be stated that Trabzonspor has underperformed compare to Adana Demirspor as both side did show to some extend ineffective performance and Trabzonspor did have its good moments of the game especially during 2nd half as it did provide signs that it was playing for a win but lack of tempo and getting dominant control of the game has led them not to find a goal to get at least 1 point from this fixture. Therefore, it could be stated that willingness of the players wasnt much missing but still team did have issues with getting entire control of the game with letting Adana Demirspor to some moments controlling game. 

Adana Demirspor didnt provide as been noted much more stronger performance as it being mainly to keep tempo at medium level and did use its opprotunity in very good manner with finding goal thanks to the Luis Nani. With getting to national team break with such win, it would continue to carry on getting good results in upcoming weeks.

Trabzonspor continues at having issue at getting effective and dominant game which does look to be an area which Nenad Bjelica would need to find solution during national team break.   

Senol Gunes has resigned as Besiktas head coach and there would be new CEO election.

Besiktas losing to Lugano during Conference League 2nd week game with 3:2 scoreline as it has conceded all 3 goals during last minute and also active protests which been shown by supporters following game towards administration and head coach Senol Gunes has led some drastic decisions.

Following meeting which took place between Senol Gunes and administration, team coach has provided his resignation which has been accepted and also club CEO Ahmet Nur Cebi has called for CEO election to be taking place as latest as December with date to be announced likely in upcoming week. It is reported also that Ahmet Nur Cebi would be considering to announce his candidacy with new administrative team and hence his main aim for this election is regain trust even through it could be difficult task as since summer club is not being run in successful manner which could be seen from results of the team. It needs to be mentioned that role of supporters who has provided pretty heated call for resignation following game against Lugano did play an important role as it would be unlucky for both Gunes and administation to make this decision.

Besiktas has been in poor condition during this season which been stated several times at our blog and performance against Lugano has been last straw.

Fenerbahce continues its winning run despite of having some trouble against Spartak Trnava

On another game of the European night had been totally different mood and atmosphere as Fenerbahce continues its very impressive winning run without losing any game during this season making it 15 out of 15 with beating Spartak Trnava with 2:1 scoreline.

Stating that this game did show that even through Fenerbahce does have good 2nd squad on its hand, it is still not on high level to win games as it did struggle against Spartak Trnava which did provide some organised defence game and hence slowed down Fenerbahce players to create chances. With Fenerbahce head coach Ismail Kartal being pretty patient, he did make an important changes introducing Sebastian Szymanski and Joshua King into field which led for side to provide much more attacking game and latter scoring 2 great goals and hence continuing such winning run. As been noted, beforehand Fenerbahce could get some difficult games and in fact concede goals like it did against Trnava but it is capable to win game and still being side which is to beat during this season.

Fenerbahce hence continues to have undefeated run with being detirmined to provide its best game for each game as its next target will be Kasimpasa.
