In recent weeks, football has witnessed the European winter first hand. The snowfalls appeared in different regions of the old continent, but the sport follows its natural course. In this context, an unusual image was given in the football of Turkey, where a team was “camouflaged” in the snow.
On the 19th date of the Turkish Super League, an unusual image was given due to the snowfall. Sivasspor visited Basaksehir in the middle of a snowfall and went out onto the playing field wearing a white T-shirt. This caused that, in the TV broadcast, the players of the visiting team were lost in the snow.
The match finally ended 1-1 between Basaksehir and Sivasspor. The home side took the lead with Aleksic’s goal in the 38th minute of the first half, while at 42 minutes, the visit tied it with Arslan’s goal. In this way, the ‘white’ team rescued a point in their visit to the Istanbul team.
Football in the snow
Turkey is not the only country that continues to face winter on the soccer fields. In fact, games in the middle of the snow are very common at this time in European leagues. However, the teams from the city of Madrid were the only ones that did not manage to play their matches in the face of the strong storm that was experienced in the Spanish capital.
Basaksehir’s lazy season
The whole of the Turkish capital has been disappointing due to the poor performance shown in the 2020/21 season. The club that comes from being champion of the last Turkish Super League is in the middle of the table after being eliminated from the Champions League where it shared a group with Manchester United, PSG and Leipzig.
