Our representative Samsunspor defeated its rival Shkendija 1-0 in Skopje in the first match of the UEFA Conference League last 16 round play-off match. New coach Thorsten Fink, who played his first match with Samsunspor after the match, made striking statements. Here are the statements of the German coach…
“WE WANT TO CONTINUE MAKING HISTORY”
“As a coach, I played my first match today. This win was very important for the team, for the club, for the city. I am very happy for the fans, they came this far. All is not lost, we have achieved nothing. We have to show the same game at home. We have made history so far, we want to continue making history. We had control over the game in general. We had two attacks. One of them was offside, but it was still effective. We were the side with the ball. It was very effective in the 3rd zone. The team accomplished everything I said today.”
“TACTICS DEPEND ON THE MATCH”
“The tactics depend on the match. How I feel in the match, how the players feel, we will make changes accordingly. Cherif missed the penalty, Marius was already good in training. I made such a change. I did not make any changes in the midfield. We were very good in midfield and defense. Tactics change from match to match.”
