Samsunspor, which lost the last two matches in the Super League and has not won in 4 matches, aims to end the bad situation by winning the match against Mainz in the UEFA Conference League.
Samsunspor Deputy President Veysel Bilen and the club’s football director Fuat Çapa made evaluations about the agenda at the press conference held at Nuri Asan Facilities.
Stating that they were sorry for the defeat against Başakşehir in the league, Deputy Chairman Veysel Bilen wholeheartedly thanked the fans and fan groups who always say ‘Samsunspor’ under all circumstances and said, “I always say that if we achieve success, we will achieve this success together with the press, community, parties, players and management. For this, we need to support it unconditionally and unreservedly.” he said.
Noting that some players were protested during the Başakşehir match, Bilen emphasized that the team and the players should be supported. Emphasizing that they are going through days that need to be united, Bilen stated that they are aiming for 3 points against Mainz and said, “We are opening a new page. A new journey begins, dear friends. We are opening a new page with the Mainz match. What is it? The Mainz match is perhaps the most important match of this season to stay in the top 8 in Europe. A draw will put us in the top 8 with maybe 11 points. If we win, we will be in the top 2-3. Another scenario will arise, but otherwise, we are in this situation again.” Thanks to our player brothers, we will continue in the Conference League even if it is the play-offs. My player brothers also say this among themselves: ‘The Mainz match is important for us.’ That’s why we need to put their minds at ease in the Mainz match. They need to be at peace. We need to raise their morale.” he said.
Bilen continued his words as follows:
“The Mainz match is extremely important for us. I believe that my brothers and my players, together with our fans who went to that match in order not to make our expatriate Turks bow their heads there, will fight with a very different consciousness than the Başakşehir match, with pride and knowing the value of that crest. We will get points, we will get points, we will earn points for our country and we will get out of this group. Maybe we couldn’t get out. It is not the end of the world. There is a play-off. We will compete with the team we will match in the play-offs again.” “We continue our way with the aim of quarter-finals and semi-finals.”
Veysel Bilen met with coach Thomas Reis and stated that they would reinforce the team during the interim transfer period.
“WE WILL PROMOTE SAMSUN AGAIN IN EUROPE, IN Türkiye.”
Samsunspor’s football director Fuat Çapa stated that it was normal for Eyüp Aydın to kiss the hand of the Galatasaray football player with whom he previously played in the same team.
Emphasizing that they will have an important match on Thursday, Çapa said:
“So, it is a really important and valuable match for us. Let’s put our full focus there. Because what we are doing now will not gain us anything. This is already in the player group. They know the value of the match very, very well. Let’s focus on it together. I am sure this will bring us much more. Let’s not waste time on unnecessary things right now. People should not tear each other down unnecessarily. There is no need for this. The important thing is unity here, we will get a good result on Thursday in solidarity. I hope we will get a good result in Samsun again on Thursday.” “We will make it big in Europe and Türkiye. Hopefully, we will talk about these when we sit down at New Year’s Eve and after New Year’s Eve.”
