What happened in Turkish football today? 20/03/2024



Main provacateur arriving from Germany does raise some suspicious.

5 people were arrested following events which took place at Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce game with one of the supporters who believed to be starting all of the actions does provide some questions.

Been known as hooligan with mask due of wearing it when incidents did happen into the field did arrive to Trabzon from Germany which does raise some questions why he did arrive from outside country and if there is any organised events. With so many events happening at Turkish football season in  negative manner and all of the happening after Turkey has got right to host  Euro2032 with Italy does raise some questions without doubt. Coming to hooligan with mask, there was statement that he didnt enter to stadium for starting fight and only wanted to send players to changing room and that he was self-defending at that pose which been shown in picture. 

Therefore, this incident does raise lots of questions of the events which did take place at Trabzon and hopefully more answers and punishments would be done as investigation continues.

Blaming players into events is being distraction.

Since the event took place at Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce game, Trabzonspor administration and media tend to throw blame to Fenerbahce players who in their view has provacated action from supporters.

Foremost, it needs to be mentioned that Fenerbahce players did do some behaviour with hand moves and generally body language which could raise tension towards supporters but it would need to be mentioned that this is being common behaviour from players and therefore providing main reason would be wrong as events during game did show that things was going to that which hence does raise question why game hasnt been stopped. It could be argued that Fenerbahce players behaviour and gestures could be done more controlled or not done at all but it is clear that hooligan action would be present even if players didnt react at all.

Doing blame game towards players is being self-defence factor from Trabzonspor and would  prevent for actual people who did have such hooligan actions away for sure.

Abdulkerim Bardakci been called up to Turkish National Team

Galatasaray player Abdulkerim Bardakci has been called to Turkish National Team which shows that player looks to be fast recovering from his injury.

Foremost, it is important to remind that Bardakci has been one of the best defenders at Super League this season and if nothing unexpected happens would be certainly selected to Turkish National Team for Euro 2024. With such good performance at Galatasaray during this season with helping team to get wins with important defence he would be playing an important role and might get some playing time in this friendlies if his injury condition is being solved.

Taking account that this last time team would be together before Euro 2024 it is being an important development for him to be at the team as team is runing 2 important test games.

Euro 2024 Qualifiers, Play-Off round, Path C, semi-finals:
