With a Brazilian goal, Basaksehir is alive in the fight for a place in European competitions


For the second consecutive match, striker Davidson is the team’s strong point, this time in the 1-0 victory over Sivasspor




Brazilian striker Davidson is experiencing a special moment in the last part of the season. This is because he scored three goals in the last two games for Istanbul Basaksehir, exactly in the most important period for his team. The player scored the goal in the 1-0 win over Sivasspor last Sunday (12). Therefore, the positive result keeps his team alive in the fight for a place in a European competition in the following season, when there are two rounds left of the Turkish championship.

In the country the first two places enter the preliminary phase of the Champions League, while third place goes to the round of 16 of the Europa League and fourth to the Conference League. Basaksehir flourished in the final stretch of the local championship and managed to achieve a sequence of five victories. As a result, they are in fourth place, with 58 points, just three behind Trabzonspor.

The Brazilian striker was decisive in the final

In fact, Basaksehir will have a direct clash against this opponent next Sunday (19th). In the clash between the teams in the first round, the result was a 1-1 draw. Davidson knew he needed to get a good result against Sivasspor, even away from home. Thus, the Brazilian managed to score in the 29th minute of the match, assisted by his compatriot Léo Duarte, former Flamengo. Victory made easier by the expulsion of Ibrahim Akdag in the last play of the first half.

“Very happy to have scored another goal and to help the team in this last stretch of the season. We are coming off a good sequence of victories and are looking for third place, which would take us straight to the Europa League. And the next match will give us this answer . We will play against Trabzonspor in front of our fans, who, more than ever, will be the 12th player. The group must be congratulated and focused on the goal set,” Davidson said.

Galatasaray, with 99 points, and Fenerbahce, with 93, are the only teams in Turkey to have secured a place. In this case in the Champions League qualifying phase.
