In the 4th week of Spor Toto Super League, Corendon Alanyaspor lost 1-0 to Istanbulspor at home. After the match, Istanbulspor Coach Osman Zeki Korkmaz made statements.
Istanbulspor Coach Osman Zeki Korkmaz said:
“Istanbulspor, as you all know, was the team that left its mark on the 1st League last year with its own game culture. It was a team that knew how to win games with the dominant game culture in all matches throughout the season. We could not achieve psychological adaptation in the first 3 matches of the league. We were having a little self-confidence problem. I think we have overcome it in time. Alanyaspor is a team that has added color to Turkish football with its game culture that has been playing every moment of the game by planning for the last few years. Our first priority when coming here was to disrupt the ability to play when the ball was in the opponent’s goalkeeper. The preparation we made against it bore fruit in the first 30-40 minutes. Skora He didn’t come, but Alanyaspor started to turn into something else he wasn’t used to until he couldn’t play. He started to turn to long balls. We developed fast attacks by passing Alanyaspor, which extended the length of the team in the long balls we captured. You can appreciate that we found positions in the first half, but we couldn’t score. 45 minutes I think it also helped Alanyaspor lose the momentum and psychology of the game.”
“GOAL AFTER 17 YEARS”
Noting that they did a competitor analysis at halftime, Korkmaz said, “We started to make the same pressure in the third region regularly in the second region. Pressing in the third region is energy work. 90 minutes is not something we can do. We couldn’t do that much in the second half, but we managed to share the second region better. Ethemi, who scored our first goal in the Super League after 17 years, went into the history of the club. Let me say that in our hearts too. It is a separate pleasure to beat a team with a strong game culture like Alanyaspor, let me tell you. Many matches in the league. “You will win, but even though you know that the team has a wide preparation following the match you won, the match won by preparing for it and responding to it is much more enjoyable. We will experience a little bit of happiness. It’s a man week for us. We will start preparations for Sivasspor in 3 days.” said.
