Trabzonspor, who finished the season in third place with 69 points in the Süper Lig, particularly stood out for their away performance. The team, known for their blue and purple jerseys, achieved a stable and successful away record, making them one of the league's top teams.
FATİH TEKKE REVOLVED THE TABLE
After Fatih Tekke took over as the technical director, Trabzonspor adopted a new identity in away matches. The Black Sea team, which had struggled for victories away from home under Abdullah Avcı and Şenol Güneş, turned this table around under Tekke's leadership. Trabzonspor's first away match under Tekke was a 3-0 victory against RAMS Başakşehir FK, setting the tone for their successful campaign.
This season, Trabzonspor achieved 11 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses in away matches, scoring 32 goals and conceding 21 at home. By earning 36 points away from home, Trabzonspor secured their most successful away performance since their championship-winning season of 2021-22. In that champion year, they had 11 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses in away matches.
STRONG SHOWING IN THE CUP
Trabzonspor also shone in away matches in the Ziraat Türkiye Kupası. They defeated İstanbulspor 6-1 and Başakşehir 4-2 in the group stage. In the quarterfinals, they beat Samsunspor 3-1 on penalties and in the semifinals, they defeated Natura Dünyası Gençlerbirliği 2-1, advancing to the final. Trabzonspor will face TÜMOSAN Konyaspor in the final on Friday, May 22, in Antalya.
Fatih Tekke has truly transformed Trabzonspor into a powerhouse on the road! Their performance is a testament to his tactical acumen. Can we expect even more from them next season? Let's hope so!
