HERE ARE HIS WORDS
Okan Buruk: “Overall, it was a good match. Trabzonspor also took many positions. It was a nice match to watch. The players did good things. Fatih Tekke is important and valuable. It contributed positive things to Trabzonspor. We were the winners, I wish success to Trabzonspor as well.”
EREN ELMALI’S WORDS
“Eren Elmalı worked hard, he never stopped. He worked as if he was going to play the match the next day. This kind of professionalism is very important. He only focuses on his job. Kazımcan Karataş also had an assist. Players who think about football are valuable and they are the ones who win. I congratulate Eren and Kazımcan as well. Eren also returned with a goal, I can say that I was happy with that goal the most.”
“Fenerbahçe and Samsunspor are good teams. They also have shortcomings. Whichever one comes, let it be good. We want to win the cup in the final. We were concentrated in the semi-finals, and we will have to continue to increase this in the final.”
“I would like to thank the fans very much. This month is a very valuable month. Let them be with us.”
“Of course, it will be even more difficult to play in the Olympic Stadium this season. It is difficult for the teams to have rain and storms. There is no need to say much since I know that it will not change from now on. We are waiting for our fans. We are going through a very important month. I invite them to the Olympic Stadium.”
“In the absence of Osimhen, Icardi made the best contribution he could. He was one of the important players on the field as a goal scorer and a player who makes others score. He showed this in the Kasımpaşa match as well. His performance increases as he plays. We can play with a double center forward formation. We are constantly thinking about playing this formation. We have many important matches this month. We want to use all of our valuable players. We will make these rotations in the forwards.” he said.
