In the 15th week of Trendyol Super League, Galatasaray defeated Samsunspor 3-2 with the goal scored by Osimhen in the 90+2 minute. After the match, Galatasaray Coach Okan Buruk made remarkable evaluations. While the clubs’ reactions regarding the situation that occurred in the extra time of the match continued, Buruk expressed the penalty and red cards that were not given in favor of the yellow-reds. Here are those explanations…
“I THINK IT’S NOT A PENALTY”
“Last minute penalty position… Actually, Samsunspor fans also… We expected two penalties and a red card, and the opponent also expected it. In my opinion, the arm is in a natural position. We have seen similar positions in Europe and the Champions League. If the referee had given a penalty, no one would have said anything, but in my opinion, our player’s arm moved in a natural position. It is my opinion that it was in a natural position. Every decision to be made should be respected. I think it was the Real Madrid match in the Champions League, it was very similar, the natural position decision can change in many positions. We cannot say that Kazımcan’s hand was down and he was thinking of playing with his hand. If it had been something else, we would have respected it. Let’s remember the red that Sallai saw, he was just looking at the ball. Many decisions can change and different decisions can be made. “We must respect the decision. I think Davinson was fouled before the second goal. We conceded a goal from the throw-in. He could have also given a foul. Berkan received a yellow card in a similar position during the game, but we must respect the referee’s decision.”
PENALTY COMMENT
“There was one penalty position. Kazımcan’s foot was stepped on. Davinson was stepped on. There were two VAR reviews, with negative results.”
THE REASON FOR ARDA ÜNYAY TO LEAVE THE GAME
“I took Arda Ünyay off for tactical reasons. Arda was very upset, he is very young. He is valuable to us. He gets a lot of time. I took him off to return to the two forwards in front. That’s how the goal came.”
