Galatasaray lost points against an easy opponent tonight. Hatayspor's goalkeeper was really good tonight.
Galatasaray was not good in the first half but the second half was very good, they had many opportunities but could not score.
Barış Alper was very bad, he could not convert clear positions into goals.
Michy Batshuayi is playing terribly, we need a second striker.
Let's see if Fenerbahçe can take advantage of this opportunity.
This is one result which probably no one envisaged this weekend in the Turkish league because the home side is a struggling side that Galatasaray could have beaten easily but failed to take advantage of thereby giving Fernebache the chance to continue closing in on them. I expected Galatasaray to take an early lead due to the weakness of the opponent but they failed to explore all the weak points of the Hatayspor side. The most interesting part of the entire game was the fact that despite galatasaray's inability to score more goals in this particular game they still conceded a goal from the home side which further complicated the situation for Galatasaray.
The match did surprise us very much and even I think many of us here may has lost money in bets after the shocking end result Cry, I don't know what happened to galatasaray in the match, previously I thought the match would be won easily by galatasaray and made me not want to watch it, but it was that match was beyond my expectations, even I can  say if actually galatasaray was very lucky could avoid their first defeat in this season, after they were able to equalize the score through osimhen pinalty goal.
Luckily I didn't add the Galatasaray Vs Hatayspor match to my bet even though I had expected Galatasaray to win the game which they later disappointed by failing to get a favourable result. It's annoying how a team get to create many chances in a game and couldn't make something lucrative out of them all except for the penalty that was awarded them. Victor Osimhen partly made some wasteful finishing too which got me wondering how such a prolific and clinical striker like Osimhen was misfiring in that game. I think I'll agree with you @Palakka, Galatasaray were a little bit lucky to have settled with a draw in that game.

The dark clouds over Beşiktaş are still there, they had an incredibly unlucky match. I think it was very difficult to miss so many opportunities, I don't understand how they can't score. It's very sad that the team is losing points from such matches, they could have easily won 2 more points.

Anyway, I'm very curious about how the next matches will be. We will see one of the legendary footballers of our childhood in Turkey, something may change in Beşiktaş with Ole Gunnar Solskjær in the new period Smiley

The team didn't play that well. They had no problems with possession and getting into the opposition penalty area, but as always, the final kick wasn't good. Muçi was very effective in the game, he should get more minutes. With Mario the team can't be productive from the wings. Rashica's situation is also obvious, he is not very effective. But with Rafa in the center, Semih on the left and Muçi on the right, Immobile also plays better. The biggest problem is to have so much possession in the offense but not enough shots and not scoring goals. As long as you don't score goals, the game doesn't matter. You can have 100% possession if you want, but it doesn't mean anything unless the ball goes into the goal. Solskjær, as a former striker, will find a way to solve the team's goal scoring problem.

Adana Demirspor is a really bad team. They are definitely not at Super League level. The quality of players is at the bottom. The defensive mistakes they make are not made by normal Super League teams. Despite this, Fenerbahçe struggled a lot. If not for the red card, maybe they would have been in a crisis. They scored four goals in the last 20 minutes. En Nesyri and Tadic saved the game.
It's good to see Cenk Tosun scoring after months. It's difficult for him to get much chance there. There were rumors about Bodrumspor, if he goes there he will play regularly.
The point difference is down to 6. Now they are waiting for Galatasaray to make one more mistake, they have no other chance.


Fenerbahçe struggled to open the game until the opposition was down to 10 players. It's surprising that a team with championship ambitions struggled against the bottom of the league. Mourinho managed to turn the game in his favor after the substitutions, but he should have won the game against the bottom of the league without substitutions. A tough match awaits Fenerbahçe next week. Göztepe is a very critical match for Fenerbahce. Göztepe is doing well this season. A loss of points in this match would put the team under stress again and a break from the championship race could begin. At the same time, Galatasaray will have critical away matches in the second half. A high stress second half awaits us.

galatasaray shared a post about the recent 1-1 draw:

https://x.com/GalatasaraySK/status/1880599522025279703

yes, there might have been some referee issues—turkey is unfortunately a weak league in this regard. but if you're the league leader and end up with a draw against the bottom-placed team, and you can only score 1 goal from 3.52 xG, there are other problems at hand.

galatasaray urgently needs to address its shortcomings; otherwise, things will get even tougher in europe.
I have noticed a trend in Galatasaray which is that when they want to win, the goal margin will be so wide but when they want to frustrate their fans, they will struggle to score goals and when they win, it is usually narrow wins. Their last match is a good proof of that because normally they would have won Hatayspor with so many goals. The disappointing fact is that Hatayspor won them in the first half and without that penalty that was beautifully converted by Victor Osimhen, they would have lost the match. Galatasaray have to wake up and start taking every match serious because negligence can make them perform that badly.

I honestly don't understand why they are complaining.

Galatasaray:

19 games, 15 wins, 3 draws, 0 losses, 52 goals scored, 22 goals conceded

Galatasaray has not lost yet, Galatasaray has the highest number of goals in the league, this is good data, they shouldn't be complaining. Even teams in the big leagues sometimes have a decline in performance due to many factors, but what matters most is that overall the team is at the top of the table and with good data

The dark clouds over Beşiktaş are still there, they had an incredibly unlucky match. I think it was very difficult to miss so many opportunities, I don't understand how they can't score. It's very sad that the team is losing points from such matches, they could have easily won 2 more points.

Anyway, I'm very curious about how the next matches will be. We will see one of the legendary footballers of our childhood in Turkey, something may change in Beşiktaş with Ole Gunnar Solskjær in the new period Smiley

I wouldn't create high expectations about Ole Gunnar Solskjær, he was a Manchester United player and was also a Manchester United coach, a team he has known for many years and was in the Premier League which he has also known for many years and even so he failed as a coach at Manchester United and in Turkey he will be as a beginner and in a team where the fans had high expectations that this season they would have good results. I see that he will be facing a lot of pressure

Is not the first time Besiktas has performed badly and missed various opportunities until finally only getting 1 point, overall Besiktas has saved 7 draw and of course results like this are very detrimental to them because if they can get more 3 points in full then they can occupy the temporary standings in the top position even though they are not at the top of the standings but they can at least occupy the top 3.

Ole Gunnar becomes the new coach, will this affect Besiktas to be able to fix everything, he does have experience in Europe and even worked for Manchester United several times, quite curious to see the next match for Besiktas under coach Ole Gunnar.

Fenerbahçe won comfortably tonight. I think the disallowed goals are correct.
The red card given to Adana Demirspor is definitely wrong, if it is a red card, people will ask why it was not given to Dzeko last week.
The referee gave this card to compensate for the disallowed goals, there is no other explanation.
Fenerbahçe reduced the point difference with Galatasaray to 6.

Ole Gunnar Solskjær has been suggested to Beşiktaş several times before through agents. Beşiktaş interviewed Sergen Yalçın for the position of technical director. Sergen Yalçın did not accept their offer. Beşiktaş management then agreed with Ole Gunnar Solskjær. I don't think there is a planned and programmed progress. There is a bit of spontaneous developments. Ole Gunnar Solskjær is a very good name. But I don't think he can be successful in Besiktas. He might be one of the dozens of coaches who were fired from Türkiye without learning the Turkish league.

I couldn’t believe this match ended 0-4, fenerbache struggle to get it right in the first half, but they corrected that in the second half. Jose mourihno had done is dressing room magic again. Everyone was expecting this score line but we didn’t think it will come in a difficult way. After that galatasaray draw I knew Jose mourihno will definitely want to clinch on that and that exactly what he did.

Good game from fenerbahce as they are now 6 points behind the league leaders galatasaray. El Nesyri continues his fine foam has he scored twice and assisted one, a very good performance from the striker, he has now scored 10 league goals already.

Generally the second half performance was great, they created so much chances and they converted them as well. I really hope fenerbahce finish the season strongly.

In the second half, all of Adana Demirspor's dreams were shattered. Fenerbahçe managed to pull the match away in the second half. Moreover, Adana Demirspor was shown a red card and became a deficit in the match. In fact, Fenerbahçe's victory was the result we all expected. Fenerbahçe won and reduced the point difference with Galatasaray to six. Still, six points is a very big difference. I don't think Galatasaray will easily lose the league this season.

agree with these. as the second half started, we quickly realized that adana demirspor is not going to protect the score for long time. as soon as the second half started, fenerbahçe began scoring goals one after another. although the first two goals were disallowed (which was a big chance for adana), fenerbahçe still won with a total of 4 goals. adana couldn't reflect their first-half performance at all.

now fenerbahce's point difference with galatasaray is 6. we’ll see if fenerbahçe can continue closing the point gap.

From the available statistics in Fomob site, galatasaray did seem to dominate both in terms of possession and the chances they created, but strangely they actually found it difficult to break into the Hatayspor defense although in fact the performance of Hatayspor players in the match was not very good, apart from bekaj, calvo and sertel who showed a slightly better performance in the match.

Adana DS - Fenerbahce



tonight, second-placed fenerbahçe will face adana demirspor, who sit at the bottom of the league.

this match is like a championship game for fenerbahçe after galatasaray’s point loss against hatayspor. if fenerbahçe fails to win and reduce the point gap to six, i believe no fenerbahçe supporter will still believe in winning the title.

the previous match between the two teams was played during the first week of the league at fenerbahçe's home ground and ended with a 1-0 victory for the home side.

i think fenerbahçe will win tonight. except for one game, adana demirspor has conceded goals in every match this season. however, despite being at the bottom of the league, they haven’t lost by a big margin in many games. i believe they will challenge fenerbahçe tonight, but the final result won't change.
first half is over. fenerbahce is having some issues about midfield. maestro has performed exceptionally well in midfield for adana demirspor so far.

although there were a few noteworthy chances in the first half, none of them turned into goals. adana demirspor still has a chance in this match. they’ve played well so far, and neither side has been dominant.

adana demirspor recently managed to win their match against one of the big three, beşiktaş. perhaps there's a chance they could pull off something similar in this match as well. we will wait and see  Roll Eyes
In the second half, all of Adana Demirspor's dreams were shattered. Fenerbahçe managed to pull the match away in the second half. Moreover, Adana Demirspor was shown a red card and became a deficit in the match. In fact, Fenerbahçe's victory was the result we all expected.

Beşiktaş really lost free 3 points there. That red card made things even easier for them but still it ended by 0-0. The known issues are still not solved fully seemingly. By the way Joao Mario is a really useless player. They shouldn't have signed him.

Samsunspor team is in a very good form this season. Even though it was Besiktas' home match, I thought Samsunspor would win the match. But in the end, the match was a draw. However, Besiktas players tried their best to get full points in this match. Besiktas players continued to attack until the end of the match. If Samsunspor's defense was not strong, Besiktas would have won this match. However, Samsunspor played completely defensively in this match.


Quote
Galatasaray tried really hard against Hatayspor but failed to win at the end. I don't think the penalty given to them was just. Mertens clearly did his best to get the penalty there and he actually inflicted his leg to the opponent defender.

Galatasaray failed to win against a team in the relegation zone. Many gamblers lost their money in this match. Hatayspor players played in this match with the aim of sharing points. After scoring a goal, Hatayspor players played completely defensively. Hatayspor players did not try to attack like that. And that is why it was very difficult for Galatasaray players to break Hatayspor's defense today. Even then, Galatasaray was able to score a goal from the penalty spot.

Tomorrow there is an easy match for Fenerbahçe. I don't expect anything from Adana DS. They are in huge debt and I don't see them managing to stay even in the Super League with this terrible performance.  Sad
I think the goal was conceded by the opposing team because Besiktas have a bad record against Samsonspor. This match shouldn't have been a draw but I think one of the reasons for that is that their records were almost identical, but Samsonspor performance was slightly better than Besiktas'. There is no shame in it, but they don't work hard and the players around them don't even advise them to work hard. That would include his team, which is why he signed him.

Galatasaray is getting weaker day by day even though they have a better record but the way they used to list wins is now adding draws. Any punishment is sufficient for them because they will know what will happen. I think this is the most difficult task in the match because it is only the player who has to score which makes it difficult to score because the goalkeeper also has to go crazy because he cannot understand who to perf the goal. Fenerbahçe defense is strong due to which the performance of the opposition team is difficult to work there because Fenerbahçe will improve their record in this match and defeat them in this league.

If I were Okan Buruk I would go for a CB and LB signing. Nelsson is horrible. They concede so many goals while scoring the same in general. I think this shows the need of an improvement in the defense line. Don't you think the same?

They have Jakobs back in left-back position, I know. But there is nobody else as his alternative. If he gets injured again then they will need to use a player whose natural position is completely different. They can solve the problem by signing another LB. By the way I have heard Osimhen has rejected Manchester United this month. I don't know how reliable that source was though.  Tongue  Because I think he wouldn't like to miss the chance of playing in a league like the Premier League.
