In the 22nd week of the Trendyol Super League, Galatasaray defeated its host Istanbulspor 3-1 with goals from Kerem Aktürkoğlu (2) and Icardi.
Okan Buruk, the coach of the yellow-reds, answered fotomac.com.tr editor Enes Cevahirci’s question about Barış Alper Yılmaz at the post-match press conference.
“THE POSITION WAS A LITTLE HARD”
Okan Buruk asked our editor Enes Cevahirci, “Did you take Barış Alper out of the game today as a precaution, or is there a serious injury problem?” “It didn’t seem to be anything important. The position was a bit hard, I was scared. Sometimes you don’t feel the pain in the wrist from the beginning, there will be problems later on. I took him out of the game so that we wouldn’t miss out. I made a change because the opponent had 10 people left. There is no apparent serious injury problem.” he replied.
Istanbulspor’s Mendy Mamadou received a red card with a VAR warning after a foul against Barış Alper Yılmaz in the 90th minute. Okan Buruk took his player out of the game after his treatment.
