Merih Demiral, who will face Luxembourg in the UEFA Nations League on Saturday, June 11, held a press conference with coach Stefan Kuntz. The highlights of Demiral’s statements are as follows:
THESE MATCHES ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO US
“Our goal is not to concede a goal and to win all the matches. We scored 10 goals in the first two games and we did not concede, which is very good for us. We want to show this performance against Luxembourg. These matches are very important for us.”
I’M ALREADY USED TO THIS IN ATALANTA
“This is how we play in Atalanta, the defenders contribute to the goal. It’s a good thing for me. We don’t want to concede, but personally I want to score too. I’m used to it in Atalanta anyway.”
I BELIEVE
“Mentally, of course, it is difficult. Everyone played a lot of matches all season and we are tired, but we are wearing the national jersey. After wearing this jersey, everyone is trying to do their best. I believe, we will show the same performance in the next two games and complete both games as we want. “
