AZ Alkmaar and Fenerbahçe faced each other in the 4th week of the UEFA Europa League. The critical match was played at AZ Stadium. After the match in which Fenerbahçe lost 3-1, former football player Nihat Kahveci made evaluations in Kontraspor.
'I NEVER FIT IT'
Stating that he did not like the football played by Fenerbahçe, Nihat Kahveci said, “Now we said that they would attack Fred in the center, they passed the ball like tiki-taka billiards and conceded the same goals. I did not like it at all, if you cannot get into so many positions on the front side and cannot score, if you cannot come walking in the defense and make any intervention, what happens?” “What will you do? There was no need to leave that midfield so empty,” he said.
Stating that Mourinho was wrong, Kahveci said, “He finished Fenerbahçe by leaving the midfield alone. Until the 58th minute, let's say the first 45 minutes, you thought Fenerbahçe would win this match easily. He was entering clear positions. The change in formation officially started with Mourinho's mistake… . He threw Szymanski to the left. It is different for Szymanski to play in the center and go to the left, but it is different for him to play with his back to the left front.
'I WISH FOR PATIENCE'
Referring to the Galatasaray match, the commentator said, “I wish patience to the Fenerbahçe fans. They also watched 70 minutes of Galatasaray's football before this. You inevitably expect good football from your own team. The boy who scored the goal is from 2006. Can 2006 be a birth date? How old were you when you were born?” “2006, the kid is playing ball and what is he playing?” he said.
