Turkish Super League 2025/26 Season

[Yabani]

In the Galatasaray match, everything seemed under control in the first half, but when Samsunspor started to press, the defensive failures reappeared. Galatasaray urgently needs to solve these defensive problems. You can't win every match based on the individual performance of a few players. The score looks good, but Oshimen carried the match single-handedly. It's not something that can be done by one person alone.

In the opening match of the week, Galatasaray faced Samsunspor at home. It must be said that it was a match that caused controversy with every decision. Samsunspor's position, especially in the final minutes, clearly warranted a penalty, but it was not given, causing a huge uproar on social media. The President of Samsunspor also made a statement on the matter. I am eagerly awaiting to see what course of action the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) will take. Had that penalty been awarded, Samsunspor could have secured a point away from home, but now they leave empty-handed, while Galatasaray continues on its way with three points.

That was a really interesting night. Galatasaray started the match great and handled the first half very easily. But Samsunspor didn't give up that easy... They fought back and brought it to 2-2.

However the winner by Osimhen with a bicycle kick was amazing. This is where players like him differ from others. I think him and Sane were the bests of their team by far in this match.

As for the likely penalty incident... I think Samsunspor should have been given it. It was clear in my opinion.

[yslyv]

Samsunspor played much better than I expected really... By the way the last time Samsunspor beat Galatasaray was 20 years ago. because in 16 of those 20 years, Samsun wasn’t even in the league

Galatasaray made a transfer as if Osimhen's departure from the team was certain. After Leroy Sane's transfer, I don't think they will be able to allocate a budget for Osimhen. Even if Osimhen changes his mind and says he wants to play for Galatasaray for another year, they can no longer transfer him...

I don't know if Leroy Sane can create an Osimhen effect. He's a player far above the quality of the Turkish league, but I don't think he can create an Osimhen effect. Even if he performs exceptionally well, if he can't create a driving force for the team, his salary could become a topic of debate...

Galatasaray's transfer budget is around 80 million Euros. Also, it is said that Osimhen's salary will be around 14 million Euros. In order to complete it to 20 million Euros, they will arrange advertisements etc. from outside and give this money to Osimhen annually. Advertisements like Ülker Çizi.

Leroy Sane will definitely not create an impact like Osimhen, but he will increase the quality of our league.

Victor Osimen is a big name in the Turkish super league, helping Galatasaray to lift the Turkish super cup several times. Victor Osimen is a big asset to Galatasaray and despite the amount of money placed for his sale, big teams are scrambling for Victor Osimen. Presently, he is the highest goal scorer in Galatasaray and have been showcasing his outstanding performance in the team.

Victor Osimen will not end his football career in Turkey, he will move for other league and Galatasaray is going to miss him a lot as he has left an indelible mark during his reign in Galatasaray.

last night, galatasaray secured victory in the final minutes with osimhen's spectacular goal. today, fenerbahçe will travel to başakşehir to try to maintain their position behind galatasaray. this match is extremely important for fenerbahçe, as every match is. especially if you are closely following a rival and are a team contending for first place, you absolutely cannot afford to drop points. başakşehir is a weaker team compared to fenerbahçe, that's true, but i can see that their fans are a bit nervous about this match. i think the reason for this is that, despite being in second place, trabzonspor has closed in on them after the draw in the derby. i'm sure they don't want to lose their second place.

Last night's match between Galatasaray and Samsunspor started at a brisk pace, with Galatasaray looking comfortable at home. Leroy Sane scored the opening goal for Galatasaray in the 8th minute of the attack. Victor Oshimen scored the second goal to put Galatasaray ahead 2-0 at halftime. Samsunspor started the second half better, scoring twice. In extra time, Galatasaray took the lead again through Victor Oshimen. There was also a clear penalty that Samsunspor was denied.

In that game they were very close to losing, which didn't surprise me because in Galatasaray's last four games, they conceded goals in every single one. I don't know if this could be due to fatigue in the defense, something temporary, because overall they've played 11 games and only conceded 11 goals. It's not yet something alarming; it's within an acceptable range. Now, in attack, if they rely too much on Oshimen, it could be a big problem in the upcoming games, because as far as I know, he will be playing for the Nigerian national team in the Africa Cup of Nations.

The match should be a comfortable one for Galatasaray, as they not only dominate the standings but are also playing at Rams Park. Initially, Galatasaray bettors were happy with the HT score, which was Galatasaray 2 - 0 Samsunspor. However, any hopes of an easy win were dashed as Samsunspor then rallied, fortunately, Osimhen made the difference in the final minutes. Handicap bettors lost, but 1X2 bettors won if they had picked Galatasaray.

It was an exciting match where samsunspor came very close to getting a draw. If the turkish super league had three or four more teams like samsunspor, the seasons would be much more competitive. Galatasaray played a great first half and barely allowed samsunspor any chances, but their tempo dropped a lot in the second half.

We saw match of Galatasaray football team and Samsunspor football team. That was one sided match because one team did 3 goals in this match and opponent team did 2 goals in this match. Osimhen was a person who did excellent in this match and he did his first goal at 29 minutes of the match and he was a person who gave strength to the team.  He did his second goal at the end of the match and match match to the side of Galatasaray.  We saw goal of one more person who gave full effort to win this match and Sané was top class player. The stats of that team was also brilliant in this match and shots of that team were more in number and many shots were on target.

Başaksehir's statistics in the first 45 minutes are better than Fenerbahçe's in every way. Fenerbahçe doesn't even have a shot on target.
It is boring to watch Fenerbahce games. Plus with this performance, there is no way Fenerbahçe can win the league.

[ingiltere]

Fenerbahçe made weak attacks in the first half. Even when they controlled the ball, they couldn't create much danger in front of Başakşehir's goal. Başakşehir also failed to capitalize on the chances they created. We witnessed a lively first half, but one without clear goal-scoring opportunities. I was expecting a more goal-filled match, but so far both teams have struggled to find the net. Perhaps we'll see goals in the second half as they will take more risks, if a goal comes the match could open up.

Fenerbahçe needs to put in more effort to come back into this game. Six shots and none on target doesn't look good for a quality side like them. Some games turn out to be unadventurous in the first half but the second half might become eventful.  Fenerbahçe needs this win this game to keep the pressure on the defending champions.

The Fenerbahçe Vs Başakşehir game though haven't produced any goal in the first 54th minute of the game but looking at the chances created by both sides since in the game, I think it's very safe to say that it'll not finish without either team scoring. As it stands, Fenerbahçe have 7 shots but none of them have been able to hit target. While the home team have hit target in 3 different occasions.
Fenerbahçe who are doing their best to catch up with league leaders Galatasaray knows that they'll surely need a win tonight to stay in touch with Galatasaray who currently have 36 points. A win for Fenerbahçe will take them to just 1 point behind the league leaders. Hopefully, Fenerbahçe will be able to win the game.

I don't know if fb is playing very bad or not but it is clear basaksehir is playing much better.. but still if they can't score Fenerbahce can concede a goal around last minutes. By the way, did you realize the pitch condition is incredibly bad. the field is terribly slippery and mud is sticking to the cleats.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Bertuğ Yıldırım just scored the equalizer. There isn't much time left for the final whistle. I hope Başakşehir manage to resist Fenerbahçe. Nuri Şahin is really good against big teams of the league lately. Maybe now it's time to get some points also. 

In this situation the point difference between Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe will go up to 3 points which sounds nice. While things are going really badly for us I'd be happy with Fenerbahçe's losing points.

By the way I also admit that penalty should have been awarded to Samsunspor. I'd expect the same thing if it happened to us.

Galatasaray needs to pay more attention to their defense because i was wondering how they allowed Samsunspor to equalize the 2 goals they scored in the first half. Osimhen is really a great striker for Galatasaray because if not for the injury time goal he scored, Galatasaray would have played draw. They are lucky that Fenerbahce played draw against Istanbul Basaksehir    today which gives Galatasaray a 3 points gap at the top unlike when it was just a point gap previously. Osimhen is indeed a one man-squad because the brace he scored in the man really shows that he believes in Galatasaray and he is willing to make sure they continue to lead the Super Lig table.

[l99l]

We weren't productive enough on the pitch to win today. After scoring, we couldn't hold on to the game, and Başakşehir scored their only serious attack.
We need to finish these kinds of matches, to win the championship, we must avoid dropping points in such matches. Dropping points was disappointing, but we're still in the race.
Reaction is essential. We dropped points ourselves once again. There's a lot of fighting on the pitch, not nothing, but more focus.

In a match involving teams at the bottom of the league, Eyüpspor faced Kayserispor. With both teams scoring one goal each in the second half, the match ended 1-1. We can say that Eyüpspor, playing at home, performed slightly better than their opponents, but they failed to find the winning goal.
Rizespor played their first match under their new manager and drew 1-1 away to Konyaspor. Despite leading at half-time thanks to a goal in the final minute, Rizespor were unable to prevent Umut Nayir's penalty goal and had to settle for a single point.
