Caglar Soyuncu goal has both spoilt Galatasaray party and kept their title chances alive for last game.
Fenerbahce has kept its title chances alive after beating Galatasaray at away game with having 1 less man at the field for around 70 minutes and has shown much better attacking and organising game while Galatasaray has provided one of its poor performances with letting supporters expecting to celebrating championship with dissapointment and awaiting next week.
Fenerbahce has shown it wanted to win game from start to ane nd regardless if it has been played with 11 player or 10 players as it did got in questionable manner of Djiku. It needs to be mentioned that Fenerbahce has been better side during 90 minutes of the game as it shown organised game at defence as Galatasaray didnt have single shot and with Fenerbahce provided good counterattacks it could actually found even more goals. Fenerbahce did come into Galatasaray stadium with an aim to keep title race until last week and it has managed to do so. Meanwhile, it needs to be stated that Fred has provided strong performance taking leading role at midfield and has created high number of chances by himself. But without doubt main role has been Caglar Soyuncu who has used his opportunity and postponed title winners for next week.
Galatasaray has been seen by many as favourite for this game especially when draw has been enough for them but in such crucial game for them it did provide one of the poor performances as Galatasaray did look to be at the mood that their didnt need to get point at least but have arleady won title and did enter to field as league winners. Galatasaray hence did provide ineffective performance which led for home fans who during whole season has been leaving stadium with victory would be highly dissapointed especially with not winning title and team showing lack of showing strong game which it did show during whole season. Such ineffective performance would be questioned but still title is in hand of Galatasaray and hence it could not lose concentration.
Fenerbahce has done what needed to be done as it has beaten against Galatasaray with strong and confident performance with 70 minutes while being so close to title without doubt did have negative impact. Now Fenerbahce would need to beat relegated Istanbulspor and Galatasaray losing to Konyaspor, while Galatasaray just needs draw.
Trabzonspor has secured 3rd spot with 1 week to go.
Trabzonspor has managed to get 3rd spot at the standings which means it has qualified to Europe League 2nd qualifying stage and has also regained an important confidence boost for Turkish Cup final game against Besiktas.
Trabzonspor did come to Basaksehirspor with being aware that win would secure them 3rd spot while loss could mean that it could be losing it in last week as both sides would be coming out with same points, this awareness and seriousness has affected final result even through it is hard to state that it did show incredible good performance but it was enough to prevent Basaksehirspor to get into game much. Winning goal meanwhile did come from one of key player of the season Paul Onuachu.
Trabzonspor hence did secure 3rd spot which has been one of two aims for this season and now would focus entirely to Turkish Cup game against Besiktas.
Besiktas doesnt provide positive view before Turkish Cup final.
Besiktas meanwhile didnt provide very good performance against Hatayspor who are playing to stay at the league as the game has been ended with 2:2 scoreline but it needs to be mentioned that loser has been Hatayspor when looking into performance and also position it is on table.
Hatayspor did come out with must win against Besiktas and did perform accordingly with looking at the chances and did score one and at least with draw has led their chances to stay at the league alive in last week if it would be lucky to some extend. Besiktas didnt provide same focus to the game as it didnt get an upper hand and has been lucky to get 1 point from this game with penalty goal from Gedson Fernandes and doesnt provide too optimistic view with its performance prior to Turkish Cup.
This game and also parallel game played by Trabzonspor with general performance of both sides does show that Besiktas needs to improve if it wants to win Turkish Cup.
