Kasımpaşa Technical Manager Sami Uğurlu reacted to the referees after they lost 2-1 to Fenerbahçe.
Uğurlu’s statements are as follows:
Congratulations Fenerbahce. We were completely in control of the game. We dominated the game for 70 minutes, we entered the position constantly. We made the transitions very well, we entered a lot of positions. Congratulations to Altay Bayındır. He played a very good match and won the match for Fenerbahçe.
Kasımpaşa plays very well, fights very well, has a game plan. It’s nice so far, but there’s also a fact; There is a process for us that starts with Trabzonspor.
Last week, 7 minutes of extra time in the Konyaspor match, then 1.5 minutes pass and then a penalty is given. We are playing with the VAR system. You may not have seen the position. If you go to VAR and don’t evaluate or don’t, that goes into questioning.
If you’re going to VAR and not, I’m looking for malicious intent here. We are trying to stay in the league with a system by fighting. We want to determine the score by playing. If we are playing matches where the referees determine the result, then we do not need to work.
It’s always against us. We have power, we have game power. Fenerbahce can beat us. We can beat Fenerbahce. We have this power, but if the referees determine the result, then we are not needed.
Fenerbahce is tired but played for the time. They did not get up from the ground, they started the game late. The referee allowed it.
They will not be able to relegate Kasımpaşa. We are not playing relegated football. We’ll get out of here. If Fenerbahçe’s second goal is awarded, then we look for serious ulterior motives.
