Beşiktaş’s successful defender, Romain Saiss, made a statement after they defeated Ümraniyespor 2-0.
Here are those words…
Romain Saiss: It was an important match. After the Trabzon draw, this match was important for us. If you are playing in Beşiktaş, you have to win every match, this is the truth. We knew it would be a tough match. Today we played against a team that was fighting not to be relegated. We are happy for 3 points. It was the best morale for the preparations before the derby. We weren’t exactly perfect, but we’re still happy for the 3 points.
I was unhappy when I wasn’t playing. I want to play every match. I did not lose my concentration and always worked. I played with different partners this season. Communication is also important. My current partner is Omar Colley. I am happy to play football. I’m happy when I’m on the field, I try to do my best. We have not conceded a goal in the last 2 games. This is important. We want to continue in this way and prepare for the derby.
We want to win the derby. In football, you play every game to win, regardless of the opponent. We know the importance of derby. We will be a special and precious match at home. We really want to win the derby. It is very important to win such matches. During the week we will prepare for the derby and try to earn 3 points.
