Beşiktaş coach Valerien Ismael made statements after the Giresunspor victory.
HERE ARE ISMAEL’S EXPLANATIONS:
It was a tough match, not because of the opponent, but because of the ground. We needed to win more, it should have been 4-0. Saiss, Emrecan is injured, Emrecan’s injury put us in a difficult situation. He played injured. He did his best. We had a hard time in the last minutes. We scored but it was offside. I repeat, we were not forced by the opponent, we were forced from the field and injuries.
Our club was richer today, our players are back. An injury to our centre-back gave another player a chance, but we have enough rotation quality. We can talk about this richness in the centre-back rotation.
