Reis's Trabzonspor Win All 5 Matches
Since Thomas Reis took over as head coach, Trabzonspor have won all five of their matches, scoring 15 goals and conceding only 2. Rising 23 places in the UEFA club rankings, the claret-and-blues are drawing attention for their results in Europe.
Trabzonspor got off to a strong start under head coach Thomas Reis. The claret-and-blues won all five matches they have played, scoring 15 goals in that period, three of them in the league and two in the UEFA Conference League, while conceding only 2.
This record marks a clear difference from the period before Reis arrived. In the five matches under Fatih Tekke and Hüseyin Çimşir, the team had conceded 8 goals. The attack was also limited, and 5 of those goals came in the match against Gençlerbirliği alone.
Reis attributed the success to the balance between the lines. The German coach said he trusts the team's attacking strength, but that defending well is what matters most. The performance on the pitch reflects that approach.
With two consecutive wins in the UEFA Conference League, Trabzonspor climbed from 164th to 141st in the club rankings. The rise contributed to Turkey's country coefficient and also improves their chances of being placed in more favourable pots in upcoming draws.
