Tonight’s match could have been 7-8

Okan Buruk stated that they played a dominant game against Tottenham and said, “Perhaps Tottenham experienced a statistic against us that has not existed for a long time. I am proud of my team and the stands. This was the most dominant performance against a Premier League team in the history of Turkish football. This was also the case in the Bayern Munich match.” “We couldn’t play and score. Tonight’s match could have been 7-8,” he said.

Okan Buruk said, “I dedicate this victory to the Turkish people” and continued his statements as follows:

“Today we showed our quality on the field. Beşiktaş won yesterday, they beat Lyon before. We have 10 points, Fenerbahçe entered with 5 points. What our national team has done is obvious. Sometimes we despise what we do. I want to present this victory to Turkish football and the Turkish people. The country has a lot of points. “We made a significant contribution. We need to do our job well and talk on the field, not off the field.”

The rest of Okan Buruk’s statements are as follows:

“I think it was our best match. Maybe I can say that it was one of the strongest games in the history of Turkish football at this level against a Premier League team. Especially the 70-minute part.”

“We spent a lot of energy in the match. We spent a lot of energy on pressure, players playing in front, mobility. We tried to make changes here too. There were players with yellow cards. We also lost the formation in the game, and it can be difficult for new players to make an impact after entering the game. The main factor was that the score was 3-2. We did not give many chances, but since they were a very high-quality team, they converted almost all the positions they had into goals.”

Icardi’s pain eased slightly

Speaking about Mauro Icardi’s injury, Okan Buruk said, “The pain decreased a little after the ice was applied. It will be clear after the MRI. I cannot say anything exactly, but I can say that the pain is less.”
