What happened in Turkish football today? 02/08/2024





Trabzonspor has lots to improve on for Rapid Vienna game.

Trabzonspor has qualified to Europa League 3rd qualifying round after beating Ruzemberog with an aggregate scoreline of 3:0 as it didnt provide necessarily dominated game in both legs but did provide some positive view from attackers and especially Ugurcan Cakir at goal.

It needs to be mentioned that when at how side performed in 2nd leg at home ground compare to previous week, team did show some more organising game and has created much more chances despite of finding only one goal thanks to the Denis Dragus. It needs to be mentioned that to some extend Trabzonspor has been lucky since Ruzemberog did create much more chances but did lack final touches. Trabzonspor hence did provide some positive performance but still needs to improve an attacking and defensive game as Rapid Wien would be coming to its opponent in pretty good form as it beaten Wisla 8:2 scoreline.

Trabzonspor hence did find themselves at 3rd qualifying round but there is lots to improve if it wants to get to play-off round.

Basaksehirspor didnt have any issues against La Fiorita.

Basaksehirspor has got into 3rd qualifying round at Conference League without much issues as it beaten La Fiorita with 10:1 aggregate as it didnt have any issues as would been expected at both legs.

In all fairness and respect to San Marino side, La Fiorita is not any reference towards Basaksehirspor as it has shown dominating game and did find goal at almost every chances at ease and has been more like two friendly games to check condition of the players both of starting 11 and alternative players. Still, this result would provide needed confidence and motivation for Iberia game at upcoming round and also upcoming Turkish Super League new season start.

Hence, Basaksehirspor has got into 3rd qualifying round and at ease and would be seen as big favourite for Iberia.

Besiktas would come out with big revision from previous season at Turkish Super Cup

Super League title holders Galatasaray and Turkish Cup winners would be starting upcoming season with Turkish Super Cup game between each other as both sides would be aiming to have perfect start of new season.

It needs to be mentioned that even through Galatasaray more or less is being same team as it as on previous season, it would be more curious to see how new signing with especialy Ciro Immobile would provide performance at competitive game especially at game like Super Cup as two arch rivals would be playing against each other. With Galatasaray as been noted quality is been known, it would be difficult to predict how Besiktas as it would show much better performance as it did on previous season but is it would be enough to compete against title holders and also fight for title in upcoming season. It also needs to be stated that Galatasaray does tend to have issues with showing strong competition in start of the seasons and hence Besiktas might have opportunity to get result it seek for.

Even through it would be interesting to see performance of title holders, main focus will be towards cup winners as it went through some crucial changes.
