Trabzonspor, which started the season in the Super League with the aim of championship under the management of Abdullah Avcı, but signed with Şenol Güneş after parting ways with the experienced coach in the 2nd week, entered the national break in low morale. The football and results achieved by the claret-blue team, which made a very ambitious squad structure for the championship target in the summer transfer season, were below expectations. The Black Sea team won only 1 of the 7 matches they played, and collected 9 points by drawing 6 matches.
Trabzonspor scored 7 goals in 7 matches, with 1 win and 6 draws, while conceding 6 goals. 2 of the 7 goals scored in Trabzonspor were headed (Okay Yokuşlu to Beşiktaş, Simon Banza to Hatayspor); 5 of them were scored by foot (Umut Bozok, Simon Banza 2, Visca, Denswil). While the claret-blue team won 1 penalty in the past weeks, Simon Banza converted this penalty into a goal against Konyaspor.
ONLY 1 WIN
While Trabzonspor won the match against Konyaspor, in which they finished the first half ahead, they also drew with 2 goals in the last minutes, in the match against Kayserispor, in which they finished the first half 2-0 behind.
The claret-blue team could not score a goal in 3 of the 7 matches they played (Sivasspor, Eyüpspor, Gaziantep FK). Trabzonspor, which left the field with a draw in all 4 away matches it played, only succeeded in scoring a goal (1-1) in the away match against Hatayspor. The Black Sea team scored 6 of the 7 goals they scored at home.
TOP SCORER BANZA
Trabzonspor’s new transfer Simon Banza became the top scorer with 3 goals, while Stefano Denswil, Okay Yokuşlu, Edin Visca and Umut Bozok contributed 1 goal each to their team. In the Black Sea team, Denis Dragus, Enis Bardhi and Anthony Nwakaeme made 1 assist each. On the other hand, Trabzonspor’s 2 shots in 7 matches this season hit the post.
POINT DIFFERENCE FROM THE LEADER INCREASED TO 13
While Trabzonspor remained far from the top with its performance in the league this season, it increased the point difference between the top and the top to 13 with the results it received in recent weeks. Last season, the claret-blue team ranked 5th with 4 wins, 3 draws and 12 points in the same period.
3 DAYS LEAVE FOR THE TEAM
Meanwhile, Trabzonspor coach Şenol Güneş gave the team 3 days off after the match against Hatayspor. The maroon blue team will start their preparations for the Başakşehir FK match, which they will play at home after the international break, on October 9.
