What happened in Turkish football today? 05/11/2023



Besiktas continues showing poor performance at the league this time losing Antalyaspor

Besiktas continues providing poor performance at the away games and also in general unstable performances as it lost this time to Antalyaspor as it did enter to half-time with 1:0 scoreline but didnt concede goals 3 goals on start of 2nd half.

Even through Besiktas did look like better side compare to Antalyspor during 1st half, it needs to be stated that even during this period it has provided low tempo and also for 90 minutes. With Antalyaspor rising tempo of the game especially for 12 minutes of the start of 2nd half has led for Besiktas quite naturally not to show strong response and finding 2nd goal on 80th minute. It also needs to be stated that Besiktas despite of winning Gaziantep did provide slow tempo and also with Galatasaray so such low tempo has been affected as Besiktas does have limited amount of players. Once again Burak Yilmaz should not be criticised too much due of not much experience and also having lack of players as current administration has affected into administration.

Antalyaspor has shown strong reaction in the second half as it is clear that Nuri Sahin talk with team at half-time has provided strong motivational and critical talks at half-time which led for side to have high tempo game at 2nd half.

Besiktas hence continues getting poor performance with having lots of injuries and serious administration problems and it doesnt look side would solve those issues until at least CEO election. 

Trabzonspor provided strong organised game against Fenerbahce

Trabzonspor has got very important for themselves without doubt as it has ended winning run of 19 games of Fenerbahce with providing strong and organising game especially at defence and generally showing patient game.

It needs to be also stated that opponent Fenerbahce did come with crucial defensive absences to which it needs to be mentioned Trabzonspor has been aware strongly and has used in effective manner with using its chances. Also, 2 goals which did come in start of 2nd half to make scoreline to 3:0 did come into perfect timing as it prevented Fenerbahce to get motivated and for possible comeback which it is capable to achieve that as even through Istanbul side didnt necessarily show its best game still did come into goals in dangerous way and did come out to get win without doubt. Trabzonspor hence did show pretty effective game with showing good focus into defence and midfielding and did use its chances. 

With providing best performance of this season it did get important confidence and motivation for upcoming weeks without doubt.

Absence of Fenerbahce defenders had direct impact to result of game

Prior to game, there was worry that Fenerbahce could be negatively affect from injuries of almost its entire defence and also key midfielder player Fred and this result against Trabzonspor without doubt did have its impact.

Even through there was some criticism with how Fenerbahce played, it could be definitely stated that team did come out onto field with focus to get win and has dominated game but couldnt overpass strong Trabzonspor and organised defence as it only get few shots onto goal and did find goals through penalties. With scoreline being 3:1 and 20 minutes left, red card of Ismail Yuksek for certainly did have a negative impact and did let Trabzonspor control game as it wanted even if Fenerbahce did have possession. 

Fenerbahce did play with difficult circumstances and also met with highly motivated opponent and now team would needs to find ways how to bounce back and first chance to make this game to be behind them is Ludogorets game.
