What happened in Turkish football today? 31/07/2024



Fenerbahce has beaten Lugano purely due of quality factor.

Fenerbahce has went through to  3rd qualifying round with an aggregate scoreline of 6:4 against Lugano but it needs to be mentioned that it failed to provide dominant game at both legs and went through quality factor without doubt.

Despite of fact that Fenerbahce did go through 3rd qualifying round and won two games against Lugano, it still didnt provide performance which has been expected and there were lots of periods when Lugano did control game. It needs to be mentioned that Fenerbahce also provided poorer performance at 2nd leg as it made lots of mistakes at passing game and defence and until 1:1 has actually helped Lugano to control game which it did want to as it was seeking for extra-time. However, quality factor from free-kick did play crucial role as Edin Dzeko did find goal and after that as we entered to last minute Lugano did look tired as it did lose tempo.

With this result Fenerbahce did quality to 3rd qualifying round against Lille as it needs to improve its performance as this game will not be enough to get to play-off round.

Trabzonspor does come out with strong advantage as it would focus into showing an attacking game.

Trabzonspor would come out to 2nd leg game against Slovakian side Ruzemberog at Europa League as it failed to show strong and dominant game at the field but got result which it seek for.

Trabzonspor hence as been noted did get good result against Ruzemborog and it would be expected that due of good advantage at result and also playing at home, Trabzonspor would be seeking game at much higher motivation and confidence. Trabzonspor rather than of scoreline would need to focus into providing much more better organising game and prevent Ruzemborog to get control of the game and prevent them to get much chances as there likely to be focus into improving defensive game. Ruzemborog if it wants to get to knockout stages would likely provide an attacking start of the game and this would be crucial role played hence for defenders.

Trabzonspor hence has big advantage for 2nd leg but team did show poor performance and hence main focus should be also to show good performance on the field for sure.

Basaksehirspor will come out to La Fiorita with alternative starting 11

Basaksehirspor would be coming out for 2nd leg against San Marino side La Fiorita as it would be coming out with an advantage of 5:1 and hence would feel confident at 2nd leg.

Basaksehirspor did get a great scoreline which almost certain has secure them 3rd qualifying round draw and hence it did get an opportunity to come out towards game with 2nd or even 3rd squad as Cagdas Atan would get an important advantage to check alternative squad against modest opponent. La Fiorita would be coming out at game without losing anything and would only aim to show its best game and enjoy themselves and hence even through its not expected to provide any pressure to Basaksehirspor, it could try to some positive game.

Basaksehirspor hence does come out to some extend at formality game and will have chance to play with alternative squad.
