Turkish Super League 2022/23 Season

[xzone]

There is only one day left until the big derby, I am eagerly waiting for the match between Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe. Being the host in these matches brings a great advantage, we will see this tomorrow.
The team that wins this match will gain a huge advantage. Galatasaray's performance seems to be better at the moment, so I think they have a chance to win tomorrow's game. Nevertheless, Fenerbahçe is a team that should not be taken lightly, they are very successful in derbies

Finally good result for Beşiktaş. Its sad that they are losing Weghorst. He was definitely acceptable striker and didn't perform bad at all. Only if Beşiktaş was better he could score even more goals. 4 assists are even extra performance gifted to Beşiktaş by him. I wonder what kind of striker Beşiktaş will be able to find at this point. Its very hard to find good players at the middle of winter. Also as I guessed Şenol Güneş can read teams far better than foreigner managers, he is making Beşiktaş better for sure.

It wasn't an easy victory for Besiktas truthfully. There were again weaknesses in their defense as usual. Kasimpasa had many dangerous attacks because of that. Fall was like the most effective player at Kasimpasa today. It was obvious that he was going to score or make an assist with his great play. His assist was really nice and Atiba's mistake caused this goal to be scored. Mert and Ertugrul both had a really good performance despite the goals. Weghorst's goal was impressive.

Kasimpasa wasted a huge chance in the last minutes. Mert saved a really great header by Graovac. Besiktas need to do something about their defending to be consistent.

Besiktas with this big win keeps themself in the title race. If they lost points today against Kasimpasa they would probobly not catch up at all to Fenerbahce and Galatasaray. So now they still have a chance but it will be hard. Kasimpasa didnt take their chances and lost some points so they continue to fight not to get relegated.

Beşiktaş had some difficulties today, but won. Kasımpaşa were dangerous from time to time, but Beşiktaş managed to keep their scoring advantage. As a result, we got three points in the derby week. Now we will wait for our opponents to lose points. :)

Also, Wout Weghorst said goodbye to Beşiktaş fans after he scored today. It is very clearly visible in this video (https://twitter.com/Besiktas/status/1611772028142452737). He had established strong ties with the team. He's made everyone feel this since he first joined the team. Frankly, I am saddened by his departure from the team. I hope he will be successful in the team he will be transferred to... :(

Beşiktaş were lucky to have scored in the 14th minute maybe if not for the early goal it would have been a draw game or Kasımpaşa who became more dangerous than predicted would have seen an easy win based on their consistent forceful attacks. Beşiktaş now has a chance of competing for the title.

Karagümrük and Konyaspor faced each other in the first match of the day. Despite Karagümrük leading 2-0 at half time, the match ended in a 3-3 draw. Konyaspor was the side that had more chances. It must be said that Karagümrük has started to have no problem scoring goals in their last matches. In the evening there is a derby. It is about 3 hours away. I think Fenerbahçe will win.

[Ondekinecakabilirim]

Fatih Karagümrük 3-3 Konyaspor match finished. Mame Diouf scored a hat trick and marked the match. He saved his team today. Konyaspor performed better than Fatih Karagümrük. But they failed to take the lead in the match. I think Konyaspor would have won this match if they had managed to take the lead once in this match.

Ankaragücü 1-1 Kayserispor and Giresunspor 0-0 Ümraniyespor first half of the matches have been completed. Ankaragücü play better football against Kayserispor. But Kayserispor are making dangerous attacks with Kemen and Carlos Mane. According to my impressions from the first half, Ankaragücü can win this match in my opinion. Giresunspor - Ümraniyespor match can end in a draw. The pace of the match is very slow. Both teams seem to agree to a draw.

Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray will play the first derby of the new year to become the leader. Argentine star player Mauro Icardi has just returned from injury, but he is not in the starting 11 in this match. Barış Alper will play instead of Mauro Icardi tonight. Here are the starting elevens of both teams:


Fenerbahçe: Altay, Osayi-Samuel, Gustavo, Szalai, Serdar, Ferdi, Arao, Crespo, King, Rossi, Batshuayi.
Galatasaray: Muslera, Boey, Nelsson, Abdülkerim, Dubois, Berkan, Oliveira, Mertens, Rashica, Kerem, Barış Alper.

Fenerbahçe will play to take back the league leadership. Galatasaray will play to maintain their league leadership position. I expect Galatasaray to play the game with the tactic of accepting the game in their own field. Fenerbahce may seem to be putting pressure on Galatasaray. If we encounter such a game at the beginning of the match, it should be considered a trap. Because fast players like Barış Alper and Kerem can give Fenerbahçe defense a hard time. I know that Fenerbahçe matches are always difficult, but I think that all the positive data in this match are in favor of Galatasaray.

[Ratash]

Galatasaray team took the lead against fenerbahce on the first half it is an intense game both teams had some chances but the leaders were the ones who managed to come off on top, this result is really good for them even if fenerbahce manage to score which i think they can the draw will still be a good result.

[judas]

Galatasaray had a really impressive performance in the first half. Oliveira's goal came thanks to a great shot and Altay's job wasn't easy to save that for sure. Galatasaray had some other chances to increase the goal difference more but they couldn't take advantage of them. There was a goal of them which was disallowed due to offside as well. Muslera also played well with good saves. Rashica was nearly making the score 2-0 right before the end of the first half. In short, it was a start that was way different than I imagined.

But now in the second half Fenerbahce have started to find more chances to score a goal. If Galatasaray continue to let them find so many chances it wouldn't be surprising to see the equalizer by Fenerbahce sooner or later.

Galatasaray got a well-deserved win and opened the points gap between them and their closest rival in the leadership race... Coach Okan Koç used the right tactic tonight. He calculated all the possibilities of the match very well. He really deserves congratulations. On the other hand, Jorge Jesus wanted to intervene in the game with football player changes, but Fenerbahce could not respond to Galatasaray on the field. I think tonight's loss will add a negative to his credit. Also, Icardi's goal was really beautiful. If he starts to play more in Galatasaray, he can solve Galatasaray's goal problem on his own...

[CLS63]

Galatasaray had a really productive match and deserved this big win by 3-0. I'm really sad to see my team Fenerbahçe struggling like this in a big match to be honest. 

I was hopeful about my team to have a decent game plan and fight hard against Galatasaray. But they were quite weak at defending especially and had big spaces for Galatasaray players to benefit from. Icardi's entering the match made Galatasaray even more productive. He made an assist and scored a really lovely goal. I was really shocked by İrfan's red card as well. He was in by the 70th minute and out by the 86th minute because of that action of him.

[Ondekinecakabilirim]

Galatasaray beat their arch-rivals Fenerbahçe with three goals and won by deserving three points. I think everyone would say that Galatasaray deserved to win this match. Honestly, before the game, I believed we were going to win. But I did not expect that we could win this match so easily. Also, I think there were serious differences between the quality of the players of both teams. So there was always such a quality difference on paper. But today we had the opportunity to see that on the field. Serdar, Arao and Crespo have been very ineffective today. We also need to open a parenthesis to Fenerbahçe fans. They did not give enough support to their team in this match. They are normally a great danger to opposing teams as well. But today they were not enthusiastic enough.

[Pierre 2]

Galatasaray got clean win today against Fenerbahçe. Fenerbahçe preferred to use their efficient wingers but Galatasaray has fast wingers as well so could stop Fenerbahçe from playing better. Fenerbahçe didn't exploit weak thing about Galatasaray which is its central midfield. I feel like Okan Buruk did good putting fast players on pitch at derby with high tempo. Kerem performed well.
I only liked Ferdi a bit in Fenerbahçe side. They kept losing ball trying to move in attack. It killed their game.

[Unknown01]

Coincidentally I saw the match between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray today and what can I say? Galatasaray played great football and with this team they would have the potential to play in European competitions. Icardi's last goal was really extremely nice and that with his actually weak foot!

[Captain Corporate]

The difference between the clubs normally is not as big as the difference they shown today. As you can see from the league table, normally Fenerbahce is a good opponent and they have been better at the league for a long time as well, we just had a good streak recently. However, for some reason or other, today they sucked sooo bad, no idea why that happened and why they played worse than they usually do maybe it was the hopeful 3-4-3 tactic, I mean its not Istanbulspor you are playing against, you can't have that much trust on your defense, look at GS and how we played with 4-2-3-1, shows 6 people who would defend, we feared Fener more than Fener feared us, that's why we probably won.

Galatasaray were really surprisingly good but there is referee issue also, in my opinion. The referee changed the gear from 5 to 2 in the second half. It only came into play in two very essential places. Someone gave a foul to Kerem, both of them can't touch the ball, there is no foul. The second Kerem goes to the goal, they pulled out of the jersey and gave it a go. I thought if they would eat the second goal, they couldn't. İrfan Can did not give a card to the intervention, there was a warning, he had to give the red. Fener was so inadequate that the referee took care of his own business in the last 15. This match was facing the reality match for Fener, and it was very painful for them. Fenerbahce were in a strange mood. I was saying to my friends who are Fenerbahce fans that in the first weeks of the fixtures, your matches are easy matches, because you did not play more difficult matches. They were saying that no. Jesus was very good, they said. When difficult matches started, all friends I spoke to saying that Fenerbahce was bad this week only. In short, they were in a fantasy world. Despite the referee, GS crushed them today. GS is pretty good right now by the way.

[Velvet78]

Galatasaray were unexpectedly very dominant in the derby game. It didn't matter whether they play in an away game as well. They were much more effective with their attacks most of the time. Fenerbahce also had some opportunities of course. Especially in the first half Muslera was really good by some important saves.

This 3-0 win is telling so many things about the rest of the season actually but let's see. For now Galatasaray are the biggest candidate for winning the league title as it seems.

There is only one day left until the big derby, I am eagerly waiting for the match between Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe. Being the host in these matches brings a great advantage, we will see this tomorrow.
The team that wins this match will gain a huge advantage. Galatasaray's performance seems to be better at the moment, so I think they have a chance to win tomorrow's game. Nevertheless, Fenerbahçe is a team that should not be taken lightly, they are very successful in derbies

Galatasaray won a landslide 3-0 win over Fenerbahce and that proves that Galatasaray is the best team for yesterday's derby. oliveira, akturkoglu and icardi each gave 1 goal for galatasaray but icardi deserved to be the man of tea match because he managed to make 1 goal and 1 assist.
