Josef de Souza from Beşiktaş and Engin Baltacı, the 2nd president of black and white, spoke at the press conference. In his statement, Josef talked about the red card he saw after the Ankaragücü match and what happened at that moment. Here is the Brazilian star, could not hold back the tears at the press conference.
Beşiktaş’s 2nd President Engin Baltacı made the speech at the press conference. Baltaci said in a statement. “We would like to come together to talk about better issues after the Ankaragücü match. There was no such environment. I am a lawyer who believes that there is always the possibility of recovery from legal accidents. Let me start with this. Mistakes made against us became chronic. We would like to put a video here, but the publisher did not. A fan jumps onto the field, runs 70-80 meters and kicks. Josef thwarts this attack. If that kick didn’t come to Salih and Cenk, it would come to the referee.”
On the other hand, Beşikaş star Josef de Souza gave the following statements in his speech;
“I had a very difficult and sad week. I was away from the team for a long time due to my injury. I returned to the field earlier than usual. I helped both my team and the referee in the match. Despite doing normal things, I got a red card and got a penalty. I am disappointed.
Sometimes in life, your actions mean more than words. I am such a person. I protected my friends. I received an unfair punishment. The length of the sentence is not important; The real question is why the punishment was given. I believe I am doing something 100% right. I cannot accept this.
We made a suggestion on self-defense. This was not accepted. I’m sorry about that too.
“WE ARE LIVING ANNOUNCEMENT”
This punishment is not fair at all. My family and I are concerned that these events may happen again. It is fair to say that the people who should be punished have never been punished. Such a thing creates distrust.
I love this country very much. They gave me a lot. They helped me get to a good level as a football player. While I was feeding so much love, it made me and my family very sad. Thank you very much to everyone who supported me. I will continue to do my best.
This is my 6th year in Turkey and I only got 2 red cards. I am not someone who deliberately likes to use violence against an opponent. I am someone who wants to protect his teammates on the field. I don’t want this unjust decision to get in the way of my character. Thank you.
