Fenerbahce played  five matches in the Europa League.....

And  They won four and draw one !

Fenerbahce under Aykut Kocaman has won their last four matches in the group....

Yesterday beating  Marseille  was cream of top for Fenerbahce and Fenerbahce fans....

Fenerbahce and Aykut Kocaman was under a lot of pressure!


Winning this match in France was very good ....

Defender Bekir Irtegun's spectacular  half scissor kick goal was something to see!

In the forty minute , Bekir Irtegun  chested down Baroni's cross and did a half scissor kick over his head  and  send the ball over Dirk Kuyt's head in to the Marseille's net....

This was the only goal in this match.....

Fenerbahce did not played superb  but managed to win this very important match in France...


With this win, Fenerbahce sit on top of  Group C with  13 points ...

Second place Monchengladbach  is with 8 points and Fenerbahce will face then in the last match...

As a result of this match, Marseille went out and Fenerbahce earned a spot in the UEFA Europa League round of 32!


Although Fenerbahce won this match, they can't play like this in the Group of 32 matches,,,,


If they do, they will be punished!



Against, Marsielle, if we look at the stats,,,,,,,


Marseille is ahead of Fenerbahce in every column!


Accurate passes,,,, Marseille 86 , Fenerbahce 79....


Possession,,,,, Marseille 52,9 , Fenerbahce  $47.1 ....


Corners.... Marseille 6 , Fenerbahce 1.....


Total passes...Marsielle 434, Fenerbahce  408....


The only difference is, Fenerbahce's goal !


 And  let's not forget that goal was scored by defender not by goal scorers!


Lastly, this was huge win for Fenerbahce in France....


With beating Marsielle in France they stayed perfect this season in the UEFA's Europa League and  they are going to round of 32, as group leader,,,,

Galatasaray Live, After Beating Manchester United!

 
 A CLASS ACT BY SIR ALEX FERGUSON!
After losing against Galatasaray, Sir Alex Ferguson visited Terim in his room and enjoyed a glass of Turkish  wine  with Galatasaray official  A.Albayrak and Galatasaray coach Fatih Terim...









It was a must win match for  Fatih Terim's boys....

And they did it!

Red Devils who already clinch the top spot in the group came to Istanbul with a lot of young talents!

Some people called it ....

United's Kids !

What ever the case is, Manchester United was playing on the pitch.....

That's why  Coach Terim was hopeful to beat Manchester United before the match..

He said they were going to win this match about three days before the match!

Motivator  Fatih Terim, won  a very important match in the group with his best know skill..


Pep talked the players and motivate them to the important match,,,,,,,

A loss for Galatasaray and Fatih Terim wouldn't be nice....

And they knew this...

After losing at home against Karabuk in the league match !

With this win Galatasaray moved to second  place with 7 points while third place Cluj at same points too


So, Galatasaray's last match in the group against Braga  is very important if they want to go advance to next round in the Champions League,.,,,,


They also will need a need hep from Red Devils who will play against Cluj !

Braga is already out of the competition ....

Galatasaray's only goal scorer Burak Yilmaz added one more goal to his goals ...

Burak Yilmaz  have five goal in  the Champions League so far...


What they said........

FATIH TERIM : “We played brilliantly and unselfishly. My players played football in a way we have been expecting for a long time.”

“We are very hopeful for second place,” he added. “There is no guarantee in football, but we will play well at Braga, who no longer have any chance.”

ALEX FERGUSON : “Parts of the game were good, but in the area which we were worried about — set pieces — we suffered.
“Other than that I was satisfied and it was a decent performance, we had some good attacking play in the first half and at that point, the only trouble they gave us was from outside the box”.
