Istanbulspor has attracted attention this season with its pressing game. The team's determination to pin opponents in their own half has become an important strategy for capitalizing on potential opportunities. Their continuous efforts to win the ball are tactics developed to cover defensive weaknesses.
Before adopting this system, the team aimed to increase control by applying more pressure in the opponent's midfield. In particular, midfielders like D. Aydın and Fahri Kerem Ay play a critical role in disrupting the opponent's playmaking process.
Thanks to the pressing game, even in situations of losing the ball, the team can quickly organize. A prime example is M. Krstovski winning the ball back with a strong press in the last match and subsequently leading a counter-attack. Such moves solidify Istanbulspor's strength on the field, allowing the players to accelerate both physically and mentally.
