What happened in Turkish football today? 03/12/2023



Besiktas gets 1 point against difficult away game while it went through difficult period.

Besiktas has drawn against Ankaragucu at capital city of the country as it did going through difficult period as it did came out to the game without known administation when the game has been played and also been negatively affected following 5:0 loss to Club Brugge and generally poor performance.

Even through Ankaragucu is not team which is capable to be playing at not only for title but also for European spots, it still has good supporters and also aims to show positive and attacking game which would provide serious issues for any opponent especially at home. With Ankaragucu providing such performance during 1st half and Besiktas not being able to provide strong response has led for Istanbul side to have some issues as game been playing in mediocre tempo which did go in hand for Ankaragucu. It needs to be mentioned that Besiktas did aim to provide much more stronger positive performance which led for Besiktas to be getting more attacking game but still didnt raise tempo. Still, being more focussed into goal has helped for Besiktas to get draw result thank to indivudual goal from Oxlade-Chamberlain. 

Ankaragucu as been mentioned has an aim with providing performance with focussing into win and not making its game too ugly and it has managed to do so which led side not to look too much below of its opponent despite of quality differences. Ankaragucu hence would be expected to get some good results in upcoming weeks.

Besiktas hence still did get point gain when looking how this game has been and also internal issues at the team. With Hasan Arat being after game, this could also return for improvement of team in upcoming weeks.

Trabzonspor has lost its first game with Abdullah Avci due of goal in the end of the game.

Trabzonspor lost its first game with its recently appointed coach Abdullah Avci after 5 games as it has conceded single goal from Kayserispor player Bahoken on 88th minute but it needs to be stated that Trabzonspor did show declineof performance in recent weeks.

With taking account that Trabzonspor doesnt provide confident and strong performance at attacks it has been expected for it to be difficult game as Kayserispor in being in good form and tries to show a positive attacking game. Strongest side of Trabzonspor and Abdullah Avci type of game has been defensive game, it did provide a key role with goal coming at the end of the game as it did prevent Kayserispor but with Trabzonspor lacking to provide strong attacks with fast tempo it did bring some issues for the side to win game. Therefore, it has been arleady difficult as it also did get further from league leaders as point difference is 14 points.

Kayserispor did come in good mood with its head coach Recep Ucar did only lose 2 games in duration of 10 games of his reign and did provide strong confident performance with positive game and it has managed to do during this game as it found key goal on 40th minute with Bahoken.

Trabzonspor as been noted has lost its first game with its head coach but it did show worrying signs due of poor defensive game and without doubt needs to find ways into providing more confident attacking game.  

Galatasaray got crucial win against Pendikspor

Galatasaray has managed to pass tough test against Pendikspor with getting 2 goals during last 20 minutes thanks to the goals from Bakambu and Ziyech as it did come out from different Manchester United game at midweek.

What makes this game tough as been mentioned in intro is not opponent, to all respect to Pendikspor, but fact that it was coming out to the game against very intense and high tempo against Manchester United. As it is known, both level of the league and also sadly training sessions doesnt provide too much pressure into body which does lead for players lacking to show high level and tempo performance back-to-back. This has been case against Pendikspor game where side has been very slow and not showing very dominating game especially at 1st half and to some extend Pendikspor has one which did control game and could even score some goals if it had managed to get last touches. Pendikspor did try in its strength to get at least draw but Galatasaray did show itself with team winning game and marking important mark for race for top spot.

Galatasaray did win an important game for them in critical week in sense of the fixture and continues its strong domestic performance so far this season.
