Fenerbahçe will face Austria Wien in the first match of the UEFA Europa League play-off tour, and coach Jorge Jesus made a statement before the match.
EXPLANATIONS OF JORGE JESUS:
We expect a tough match tomorrow, our opponent is a much stronger team than Slovacko. Austria Wien is a well-established club, we want to get a good result and return home advantageously.
I can’t say they are in good physical condition, Alioski did not play an official match. İrfan Can and Mert Hakan have just come back from injury, these matches are more suitable for them to warm up. There is nothing to do.
Fenerbahce will play with me to win every match, we will go out on the field to beat every team. Both teams are not in a good place in the standings, we want Fenerbahçe to be in a better place. We’re going out to win.
Fenerbahce played only two matches in the Super League, we played only 8 matches together. We are just getting used to each other, we will become stronger over time. I would be deceiving myself if I say that we have achieved the level we want.
Teams that play every three days need to change their starting 11 constantly, we will make such changes. Our staff is sufficient to make these changes, such a situation is valid not only in Turkey but everywhere else.
STATEMENTS OF GUSTAVO HENRIQUE:
We expect a tough match tomorrow, we studied our opponent and we know him well. We did the analysis, it will be a difficult match, like the Europa League matches. We worked very well. We want to get a good result.
I’m so happy to be here. I was very well received by my teammates, we work harder every day. Our teacher asked me to come here, his request and coming here made me very happy.
