Besiktas gets important win against Konyaspor but did provide good game during 2nd half.
Besiktas has got crucial win for the fight for European spots as it has beaten before last-place Konyaspor with 2:0 scoreline even through side did become pretty ineffective and slow game during 1st half but did raise tempo during 2nd half.
As it is known, since Fernando Santos has joined Besiktas, team has been showing pretty ineffective and slow tempo performance during 1st halves and this has been also case during this game as it only got 11 attacking chances and also did let Konyaspor do get some chances and this taking account that their opponent didnt show good performance in both areas in recent weeks. However, with possible motivational and warning talk from Fernando Santos during half-time, Besiktas did start 2nd half in much better motivation and higher tempo and has found goal once again with its key attacking player Semih Kilicsoy. That goal has broken motivation of the opponent as Besiktas started to dominate game and did find later 2nd goal.
It needs to be mentioned that Konyaspor which did come with low confidence and motivation, did provide some reaction to poor game of opponent and did try to get surprising result but did lose that characters after conceding goal. Konyaspor continues to provide some worrying signs and it needs to look ways how to improve.
Besiktas hence did get an important win for the fight for 3rd spot but it needs to find ways to show top level game for 90 minutes to end season at high note.
Galatasaray got an easy win thanks to early goals.
Galatasaray has got pretty an easy win against Ankaragucu at away game in the game which was expected to be very difficult as it did find 3 goals with 20 minutes with starting game at high tempo and dominating game.
One of the characteristics which Galatasaray has shown on recent games is to find an early goals against their opponents and then control rest of the game which hence allows them both to reduce possibility of having tough minutes towards end against tough opponents and also control game for most of the time. Even through it was expected for field and also Ankaragucu to provide some issues to Galatasaray, it didnt get any pressure from both factors as it controlled and played game as it wanted and hence didnt use much energy prior to crucial game against Europa League and also kept its 2 point advantage at title race as we enter to last 13 weeks in the league. This win would provide confidence and motivation for upcoming games in all competitions it competes at.
Galatasaray did get strong momentum and it did show that it is being difficult opponent right now once again for sure.
Trabzonspor got confidence boost after beating Pendikspor
Trabzonspor did manage to get back-to-back wins at the league with beating Pendikspor with finding 2 goals between 75th and 80th minutes and did get thanks mainly to strong performance of its leading players.
It needs to be mentioned that when coming to gamewise especially during 1st half, it would be hard to say that Trabzonspor did have very good performance but still did show some organised performance against willing opponent. However, when finding 2 goals after 75th minute it did dominate game as Pendikspor did lose concentration and motivation in the end of the game.
Trabzonspor hence did get an important win as back-to-back wins would provide much needed confidence and motivation team seeked for.
