Sivasspor on Top All Along After Trabzonspor Stall!

Sivasspor theย  Cinderella team of Turkish Tukcell Super League are on top of the Turkish standings all along by them self's after Trabzonspor could not cash in three points against Fenerbahce in Istanbul.
On Saturday, Sivasspor beat Galatasarayย  at their own frozen turf and actually froze the fans of Galatasarayย  fans.

On Sunday, Trabzonspor hadย  many changes against Fenerbahceย  in Istanbul but, their forwardsย  Umut Bulut, Gokhan Unal andย  Isaac Promise could not cash in and waisted many opportunities.

On the other hand Fenerbahce had a chance to capture the second place with a win against Trabzonspor. They also missed a lot of chancesย  in the second half of the match too...

Fenerbahceย  keeper Volkan Demirel and Trabzonspor 'keeper Tony Slyvia, mad some huge saves in this nil nil draw.

This was the 100th match for Volkan Demirel under Fenerbahce Uniform.
World known, Roberto Carlos after signed a new contract earlier in the week with Fenerbahce played one of his best match....
In one incident he saved Volkan Demirel's huge mistake...it was aย  bad clearย  from Volkan to the Trabzonspor forward andย  Roberto Carlos came behind and capture the ball and send it to corner!
Trabzonspor attackers, Umut, Bulut, and Isaac Promise were versatile two-feet players theyย  wouldn't have problem scoring the goals!....
In Umut Bulut's case when he received the ball he was all by him selfย  and he did not use his both feet to to scoreย  the goal...he kicked the ball with same feet when he received the ball and it was really bad kick andย  keeper Volkan Demirel saved the ball with his finger tips...
On the otherย  hand Isaac Promise in the last minutes of the match , got a plentiful ball from midfield andย  all he had to do after receiving the ball with his left foot he had to trap the ball to with his right foot and fool the defender,instead he took a week shot with his leftย  foot and the ball went to side of the net!.....
The reason I am bringing this up is , there is a young twenty years oldย  playerย  Jamesย  Troise, who plays forย  Genclerbirligi scored three goalย  on Saturday against tough Kayserispor!......
Until this match, Kayserispor allowed only seven goal in their goal.......
This, formerย  formerย  Newcastle United young playerย  Jamesย  Troise, score all three goalsย  with using his both feet!.....
I think, he was the best scorer this weekendย  and best player of the week 17nth, in my opinion!
So, after winter brake,ย  Turkish Tukcell Super Leagueย  top team Sivassporย  still on top and all by them self's now with 37 points.
But, they have a lot of chasers!
Trabzonspor on second with 35 point. Galatasaray with 33 points on third, Ankaraspor on fourth with also 33 and Fenerbahce on fifth with 32 , lastly Besiktas with 31 point on sixth place...
Galatasaray andย  Fenerbahce loss big ground this weekend afterย  stalling!
If Sivasspor wins their other games against Istanbul big three clubs , they will be the champions of the Turkcell Super League.......
But, thatย  will be really hard...
A frozen stadium covered with ice , does not look good for the team want to be the champions of Turkish League,, in my opinion!...
They have to solve that problem...
Lastly, League's bottom already started to boil!
After, getting new transfers, the teams inย  the basement making progress!...
Genclerbirligi, Kocaelispor, and Antalyaspor won their match this weakened!
The teams like Ankaragucu, Denizlispor , Konyaspor and Istanbul BB, could well be in trouble ,if theyย  don't start winning their matches!
Here are theย  score from week 17th , in the Turkish Turkcell Super League.
