Our representative Galatasaray hosts AZ Alkmaar in the field of the UEFA Europa League play-off round in the field.
Before this struggle yellow-red coach Okan Buruk made statements.
Here are Buruk’s statements:
According to our information, the snow will stop soon. I think it will be cleaner in the match. After this time we need to comply with the conditions of the match.
We need to start the match very aggressive. The first 45 minutes is very important, we need to find a score. We need to show the opponent where they play. A 90 -minute match is important every minute. A goal we will score at the beginning of the match is very important. We believe with our players. I hope the chances of the match will be with us.
Each movement of the opponent is motivation for players. We need to show that we are a team. The European list was difficult for us. We were just able to add 3 players. The number of players coming from the hut is a little less, but our first thought is to catch 3-0. First we need to score the first goal. We have always found 3 goals in our European League matches here. A good team, of course, and they didn’t play matches at the weekend. We also saw how good the Dutch teams are in the Champions League. We must put forward our own talent. If you don’t put it, you can’t succeed, no matter who you play.
