In the 5th week of the UEFA Europa League, Galatasaray drew 1-1 away with AZ Alkmaar. Osimhen scored the goal for the yellow-reds. Galatasaray made its points 11 after 5 matches.
Galatasaray’s Metehan Baltacı and Victor Osimhen made statements to TRT Spor.
METEHAN HAS HIS EYE ON THE CUP
Metehan Baltacı, who came into the game instead of Nelsson in the second half, said that they wanted to win the UEFA Europa League cup.
“We conceded a goal very early. We conceded an unexpected goal. After the goal, we mostly owned the ball. Our opponent also missed positions. This score should not have been like this, there are clearly things we missed. At least we fought until the end, we wanted to, and that was a good message. We left with a loss of points, but we will advance to the final. We will do everything to get the cup. We talked about this inside. We will continue until the end.“
OSIMHEN’S COMMENT
Victor Osimhen, who scored Galatasaray’s goal, said that fatigue affected the match.
“It feels good to score a goal, but we left here with 1 point. We couldn’t attack much in the first half. We were more effective in the second half. We are happy for 1 point. We will continue now. There was a match 4 days ago, we may be mentally tired. Now we will prepare for the next match. I think our team’s performance was good. We want to win the next matches. We have never been defeated in the Europa League, but we need to continue match by match. We can make it 3 out of 3 in Europe. We respect competitors. We will do everything we can.“
