Rizespor 1 - 0 Adana

Today's game involving Adana against Rizespor had a result that in my opinion did not surprise me, for this game I was looking at the game with the thought that both teams had the same chances of winning this game, but I was rooting for Adana, I even thought about betting on Adana, but then I forgot to place a bet and only remembered after the game had already ended. But I must say that when I saw the result I felt very relieved that I hadn't placed any bets because I didn't lose any money by doing so. With this defeat, Adana is further away from places for access to European competitions. sad that they are having a lot of difficulties

Besikitas 3 - 0 Karagumruk

Besikitas is very lucky in this game, because Karagumruk is a team that in the last 5 games only had just 1 victory, they would not pose much danger to Besikitas and Besikitas needed to win this game to continue getting closer to the teams from top and as soon as the game started I thought that Besikitas would be able to score an early goal, but the 1 half ended without games and I started to think that the game could end without many goals, I was surprised by the fact that in the 62nd minute Besikitas had managed to score 1 goal and 3 minutes later they managed to score the second goal, that is, in 3 minutes the Besikitas scored 2 goals, but then only managed to score a goal in the 90th + 2 minutes. With this victory, Besikitas is in position number 4

This season the competition is very strong in terms of access to European competitions and also about who will be champion, with Fenerbahce not giving up first place so easily and Galatasaray being inconsistent at times, I see that we will see a lot of competition until the last round. I hope Fenerbahce can become champions this season. They have been a good team since last season and tomorrow they will play against a very problematic opponent who has had many draws, I'm wondering if Fenerbahce will be able to come away with victory in tomorrow's game. I hope they can win

That's a though clash in İstanbul. Fatih Karagümrük may be seen as a smaller team but they play counter attack game well. Güven Yalçın is a player to watch out for. As a former Beşiktaş player, he can score against Beşiktaş again. Their striker Kevin Lasagna scored only one goal this season, but we still need to pay attention.
Semih will be the forward in Beşiktaş. He's in form lately, if he scores a goal today, it will make the fans very happy. Rashica and Cenk Tosun are other goal weapons. I expect the match to be high-scoring. This could be the match they are waiting for after Çaykur Rizespor game, they can show themselves to the new manager Santos again.

It's a shame that all 7 teams were penalized, it's a pretty big penalty. These teams will not have big goals for next year.
What you say is true, the value of infrastructure players will be revealed a little more. There is a system in which external players are recruited instead of training young talents. This decision can at least make the value of young people understood

It's actually good news for Anatolian Teams because they spend a lot of money on transfers. They can organize their finances in these 2-3 seasons.
I don't understand on what basis the president of Adanademirspor said that. If FIFA has announced such a penalty, they have to comply with it.

7 Super League teams got transfer ban today from FIFA. Adana Demirspor, Antalyaspor, Alanyaspor, Hatayspor, Ankaragücü, Kayserispor got 3 transfer season, Yılport Samsunspor got 2 transfer season ban. That means they don't make new transfers next season. But today Adana Demirspor chairman said they don't have any ban, that's weird.
I hope clubs try to bring new players from U-19 teams and we can see new young players. Success can't be achieved by making transfers constantly. Clubs financial situation is never good enough with this policy.

The financial situation of Barcelona at the moment doesn't require an irrational spending. It requires careful consideration and study too. Barcelona needs to get out of the situation fast and so they wouldn't dare trade their chances. They've got eyes on some players who are or will also be willing to join them but they just can't squeeze out that funds because it'll lead to another jeopardy.

 It's so sad that for the mean time, they'll be left with just free transfer options or low budgeted players. Adding a high rated player in the team would also mean a careful study of his salary incentives and finding a plan that would befit this player and I don't think any player of that stance, would want his salary structure reviewed. The best thing for Barcelona is just endurance whilst finding quick means out of this situation so they'd be back to acquiring the best guys in the game. The Copa del Rey is on and definitely, they're expected to perform better in most of their encounters.

I agree about this. We just can't be as productive as Fenerbahce even if we have Icardi on the pitch. This isn't good at all.    His absence makes things even worse in some games such as this Sivasspor game. Okan Buruk needs to find a way to increase the efficiency of our attacks. There is a huge problem with finishing right now.

Otherwise we don't have any problem with creating goal chances. There are so many of them like in every game. Kerem Akturkoglu needs to improve his scoring skills in the first place. Because he wastes a lot of chances despite playing a big role in creating them. 

If we remember the summer transfer period, both teams have made so much noise with their expensive transfers. In my opinion, Galatasaray was better at transfers, made a huge deal with their big players. But now as the result, we see that Fenerbahce is a more whole team, not lacking as much as Galatasaray in the squad. And their offensive power is obviously better. It is indeed very impressive how many they scored so far and the team is looking solid. 50 points in 19 weeks is also impressive. They also reinforced the defence and midfield. They already have enough players who will score goals in any case. Things are looking good for Fenerbahce.

The fact that both teams are almost at same points, shows that it's good to bet on them. I can't care less which one will end up being champions, I did not bet on the title winner, all I care is making parlay bets for this league, and getting the win.

At the start of the season, I had Besiktas too, and they failed to be good so I took them out early on, and most recently they looked well, if they have one or two more games like this, then I may end up adding them back in. For the time being, all I ask is Fenerbahce and Galatasaray keep on winning their games, either could be the title winner in the end, I can't care, as long as I keep getting the betting wins on their game wins, I am fine with their thrilling title run.

I mentioned it here just the other day, even though Galatasaray has Icardi, they are very insufficient in terms of scoring goals compared to Fenerbahçe. In today's result, we lost points to Sivas and I can say that losing to such a low team means saying goodbye to the cup.

Penalties that were not given etc. these should be passed, we should look at what the team is doing, was this the best they could do? I think it was not enough at all.

When we look at the transfers in Winter season it looks like Fenerbahçe don't want this opportunity to go anywhere and they do whatever needed to win the championship after a decade. They are at the top and they have a great squad but they keep adding new players to the roster. Bonucci is a great addition to the defensive side and they plan to get another forward. Honestly they have great forwards and one more is not needed but we see from the media that they have plans for another addition. Ali Koç want to retire as Fenerbahçe chairman with one championship at least.

The problem was that Galatasaray was satisfied with that one goal and they were thinking there was no chance that Sivasspor would score a goal. Once they did ,Galatasaray started attacking but what surprised me that Sivasspor continue to attack and was close to snatching the three points.

Then look at Sivasspor's manager. Bülent Uygun is a former Fenerbahçe football player and always tries to make his team play well against Fenerbahçe's opponents. Against Galatasaray, they saw that the score was 1-0, entering the final minutes, they increased the pressure and scored the goal. Galatasaray should have scored the 2nd goal in this match. They got into this situation because they couldn't make it. Fenerbahçe doesn't allow such situations, they score 2-3 goals from the start and win matches easily. As of today, there has been a slight change in the championship chances, but the league is long. We'll watch and see what happens next.

After Covid era still many clubs are facing these financial troubles, and they are losing their spots because mostly many are not able to bring quality changes which increase their performance even media rights and other deals are doing good but still these are not enough for them to have better and positive changes which are surely going to have serious impact in coming days.

Besiktas is also having same problem which is surely needed some good and quick intention but how this is also big question Barcelona and many Italian clubs are having bad time with things are not favorable so hopefully here they will be able to have some positive change which will increase their sources, and they will also able to have better changes.

Some decisions taken as regards to a team's welfare is critical for the team's performance. Sometimes, bad decisions are made unknowingly which will then be realized later after it has been made. For Konyaspor, they've realized now that their decision was bad for the team as they've not been able to keep up with a good performance.

 Since the season began, they've been deteriorating in performance and week after week, there's always a loss. It's too bad for the team. Corrections should be made urgently. No one would want to invest in a less performing team. They don't have as much leisure anymore. They just have to fight through this challenge themselves, find a right hand for the job and make moves to betterment.

We left 2 points to Sivasspor tonight. There is nothing to do, we need to prepare better for the next games.
There are still 18 games left in the Super League, these two teams will lose more points until the end of the league.
The last weeks will be exciting, the last weeks will be exciting, there is no need to bother for now.

It is an unbelievable level of dominance by Fenerbahce which I must admit.      Fenerbahce are currently like the Bayern Munich of the Super League. They are very productive and this side of them will play a huge role on their road going to the Super League title. I should also indicate that they are much more impressive than Galatasaray now.

I just want to give two great match examples for the difference between them this season:

- Fenerbahce beat Istanbulspor by 5-1 while Galatasaray were able to win against Istanbulspor by only 1-0.
- Fenerbahce destroyed Konyaspor by 7-1 while it ended by a 3-0 win for Galatasaray against Konyaspor.

While Fenerbahce have 56 goals scored Galatasaray have only 36. Of course these statistics don't guarantee the title for Fenerbahce but help them stay ahead of Galatasaray easier. 

Financial issues is a very big challenge to any club because in a situation were the need to sign more good quality players will arise but there is no means of signing them it becomes a very big barrier to the club because if I'm not mistaken that's exactly what Barcelona is currently going through now because they are financially unstable and considering there current poor performance there is a serious need for them to get more good and quality players in other for there next season to go smoothly. Although Beşiktaş has many young players but there performance is not enough to take them far so whichever way they seriously need to sign more players in other to balance the team.

I think the most important thing is definitely morale, but there seems to be something different at Galatasaray.
For example, Icardi goes swimming with the Argentinian team due to his injury and shares photos etc. (I think he does this because he does not know Turkish culture) If Galatasaray had won today, it would not have been a problem, but now that there is a loss of points, this situation will definitely be talked about by the press.
It is said that some football players do not play because they do not receive a salary, but I do not know how true it is.
I came across the last minutes of the match and Galatasaray found the positions to win the match. For example, if Abdülkerim had not been there at the last minute, there would probably have been a goal.
They should forget about this match and look at the match to be played this weekend, but it is not clear what kind of morale they will have.
Also, Kerem's position should have been a direct red card, not a second yellow card.

It took me time to actually believe that Sivasspor could have denied Galatasaray the 3 points which would have given Galatasaray the opportunity to have topped the league table with a point gap over Fenerbahce whose is currently sitting on top of the league table. I would say they indeed took the advantage of playing at home and hold the visitors to an entertaining 1-1 draw.
