Galatasaray’s Okan Buruk made striking statements after the match in which they defeated TÜMOSAN Konyaspor 1-0.
Buruk said, “We played the second half more comfortably. We actually scored the second goal, but we did not understand why it was canceled. We had positions except for one goal that was not given.” he said.
HERE ARE THOSE EXPRESSIONS
“We played the second half more comfortably. We took clearer positions in the second half. We scored the second goal, but we did not understand why it was cancelled. Barış was not offside. It was not an offside line from Abdülkerim. We looked clearly. It was not offside. We were expecting a goal to be awarded. Those who watched this position were the same. They will say the following: Abdülkerim was not in the game, he was not close to Barış. We had an expectation of a goal, but other than that, we had positions.
“TIRED AND DEMORATED…”
We were stagnant in the first half. The previous match had its effects. Fatigue, low morale… In general, we defended well, we did not give any positions. Our opponent may not have a shot on target. Our goal expectations were high. We got into positions. It was important not to concede a goal. Everyone says this. We didn’t give a chance to score, we didn’t concede a goal. It’s good news for the team’s defense. We could have scored the second goal and finished the match. Tiredness started, we made changes. Sara played for the first time in a long time. Ahmed Kutucu played his first match. He also entered a stressful match. We have very high expectations from him. There are also players we could not put into the game. We are playing matches in a row. We increased the difference to 9. We will watch the match tomorrow. A team like Göztepe on their way to Europe, they played well against us and Beşiktaş. It will be a tough match.
“PERFORMANCE OF FOREIGN VAR REFEREES…”
Looking at the referee decisions of the last 2 weeks; MHK structure has changed. The performance of foreign VAR referees is low. We saw this clearly in our opponent’s match. We will keep our eyes on this match, the referee of this match, and the VAR referee. “We will watch this match on TV.”
