Beşiktaş coach Valerien Ismael made a statement after the 3-2 defeat of MKE Ankaragücü.
Here are those words…
Valerien Ismael: I don’t understand why Josef got a red card, he was trying to protect our own player
There were moments of intense emotion. It is one thing to be emotional, but it is not acceptable for the fans to attack the football player. In this sense, I consider the red card received by Josef unacceptable.
Sometimes we have to play smarter. We played a game with high emotional intensity. It’s okay, we will play the second game at home and our fans will be there with us.
I also criticize the fans entering the field. It’s not a matter of respect. We can talk about the other issue among ourselves, which we did. We should not stray from the main topic. It is unacceptable for a fan to enter the field and attack the players.
