Turkey needs to focus into improving on defensive game prior to Austria game.
With Turkish National Team reaching to last 16 stage by showing strong character, it still needs to be mentioned that team would need to show some improvement at how it performance and show good organising game.
Foremost, it needs to be mentioned that Turkey did deserve to be at last 16 as by stating otherwise would not be good analysis of the team but it is important for Vincent Montella to recognise mistakes which were made during group stages. Especially during Portugal game and also bits of Czech Republic game. It needs to be mentioned that main focus should be at same spot which has been discussed even before tournament which is being defensive game and it needs as team to improve on that area especially against Austria who is showing strong attacking game which it has shown at group stages and especially against friendly game against Turkey which has ended with 6:1 scoreline. Friendly game might not be good reference for preparation but still it is crucial for national team to study mistakes which has been made.
With Turkey showing good performance at attacking game with getting chances and converting them, it needs to solve defensive game as it provides pressure to attackers also mentally.
Turkey will be fully focussed to Austria game tactically with Montella preparing team.
One of the positive factors and one which everyone would like to see without doubt is strong togetherness, concentration and good mood at national team and this has been seen clearly at national team training sessions even after Portugal game.
Factor that national team is being very concentration for its task at Euro 2024 without doubt for Vincenzo Montella focussing into next game of the tournament which without doubt tactically, mentally and in fact physically allows team to be ready. Even through some tactical mistakes has been seen against Portugal, at the game against Georgia and Vzech Republic did show rightfull tactical game and without doubt Vincenzo Montella would look, identify and find solutions at acting of weakest signs against Austria and minimalising own isuse. This factor would let Turkey to show its best performance with right tactical game without forgetting respect towards opponent.
Montella could be criticised but for many times he did show togetherness and being able to mentally prepare players and for sure this characters would come out against Austria game.
Media being relatively about national team goes into hand for Turkey.
Following win against Czech Republic, Turkish sports media which as our blog has stated several times for years is being after chaotic situations did show much more calmer period which likely would stay same until Austria game.
This factor that Turkish sports media is being passive quiet prior to Austria game would go on into hand for Turkish team also as it would not feel under pressure at such an important game. It needs to be stated that all of talks between Portugal and Czech Republic didnt have much impact into concentration and morale at the team. However, it needs to be mentioned that regardless how ignorant technical staff and players they still hear talks at media hence for this time media being relatively quiet would let team to be entirely concentrated at such crucial game at last 16 stage.
Therefore, Turkey will come out with minumum pressure which would without doubt go into hand for them as it would focus ot game 100% and get positive game and hopefully great outcome.
