Greetings Kankas
and Kankiues.
Ankaragucu took
a giant step backwards last night when they succumbed to a team below them in
the league, and in the process found themselves only 2 points above the
relegation zone.
With only 2
matches left, Ankaragucu is leaving it late to salvage their season and
optimism is in short supply right now
!!
Ankaragucu
travel to 3rd top of the league Trabzon for their final match, but
next Sunday is, realistically, their last chance to take all 3 points when they
host Pendik who are in the relegation zone.
Nothing less than 3 points will suffice to take to Trabzon !!!
Last night
Ankaragucu fought back to equalise with 5 minutes of the match remaining, but
then, instead of shutting-up-shop and seeing the match out, they conceded the winning
goal in time-added-on.
Aaaaaaargh !!! That goal may come back to haunt them in 2
weeks time !!
Hatay 2 ANKARAGUCU 1
Team – Ertac,
Kitsiou, Mujakic, Radakovic, Atakan, Pedrinho, Tasos, Efkan, Alexis, Bassogog
and Ali Sowe
Substitutes –
Bajic, Rodrigues, Riccardo, Ali Kaan and Macheda
The 1st
half was a non-event. However, the
match exploded into life in the 70th minute when Saglam put Hatay
ahead.
With the match
drifting towards the final whistle, Macheda equalised with 5 minutes to go.
Then the
inevitable happened. Into
time-added-on and a cross came in from the right to the back post. Who else but Atakan allowed Dadashov to
ghost in and his header hit the back of the net !!
So, to next
weekend and Ankaragucu is staring into the abyss, unless they can contrive to
put Pendik to the sword.
Istanbulspor is
already relegated, and there is a scrap to determine who joins them. With only 6 points separating the bottom 7
clubs, it goes without saying that Ankaragucu MUST win next Sunday.
Do they have the
wherewithal and ‘bottle’ to deliver
???!!!
As always, watch
this space for the answer.
All the best
from Eski Kanka Jim
This team needs better players
