Galatasaray drew 2-2 with Swedish representative Malmö, which it hosted in the 6th week of the UEFA Europa League. Football commentator Nihat Kahveci attributed the loss of points in the match in which the yellow-reds were ahead 2-1 to Michy Batshuayi’s performance and coach Okan Buruk’s interventions in the game. Here are Nihat Kahveci’s comments on Kontraspor YouTube channel…
“GALATASARAY WITH AND WITHOUT MERTENS”
“We were very happy until the 91st minute, there was no problem until that minute, but we watched Galatasaray with Mertens and Galatasaray without Mertens. Why? Galatasaray did not play very well in the first half, but they played very well in the second half. Mertens left the game in the 73rd minute, I couldn’t take proper notes at the front.”
“TAHA ALI HAD AN INCREDIBLE IMPACT ON THE MATCH”
“It’s a good thing he didn’t let this guy play… Taha Ali… Dad, are you playing indoor football! Such a thing can’t be possible! What does he do for the penalty area between 3 players… He had an incredible impact on the match, providing incredible effectiveness on the left side. 92. In the goal they scored per minute, the pass on the wall, the finishing…
“I CAN’T UNDERSTAND WHAT KIND OF THE LAST 25 MINUTES THIS IS LIKE”
“When we say Galatasaray won, they drew, but they could have been defeated. I can’t imagine what the last 25 minutes were like. He brought Efe Akman and Hakim Ziyech into the game in that section. Galatasaray, without a striker, scored two goals today, away from right-back Jelert, with left-back, left open, 6. number, number 10 with Yunus.”
“NO ICARDI, NO OSIMHEN, BATSHUAYI IS OFFside”
“Galatasaray without a striker… No Icardi, no Osimhen… Where is Batshuayi? He is offside! Batshuayi was playing badly in the first 11, but he had to play. When I see Yunus Akgün, I want to ask; do you hypnotize the goalkeepers when you hit the ball? Nikolic “The one conceded by today’s goalkeeper… You will shoot, brother, that throw! Galatasaray did not score in the first half, Sara shot one and it went out.”
“IT WAS BATSHUAYI’S WORST PERFORMANCE”
“They couldn’t try many shots because there was no one in front to make a wall! There is no Batshuayi, he didn’t go to Malmö. Jelert cuts well, you are offside. At least score a goal, let’s get excited and ask ‘is it offside or not?’ He hit one from the six pass again, but he couldn’t score it either, he was offside again. “If you are not in the game, do not be offside, if you are offside, be in the game. It was the worst performance of Batshuayi that I remember in recent times.”
“YOU WILL PAY THE PRICE FOR REMOVING MERTENS”
“It is not acceptable for Galatasaray to be under so much pressure in the last 20 minutes. Why? You couldn’t keep the ball in front. You took the player who could catch the ball from the game. Yes, you have a match at the weekend, you rest him. Mertens is 37 years old, but sometimes you pay the price for that. And Hakim You brought Ziyech and Efe Akman into the game…”
“THE KEY POINT IS THE MINUTE WHEN MERTENS EXITS”
“It is clear that Malmö will not let go until the last minute. Taha Ali is flying and bringing it. It is clear that you will be under pressure. I say why was there a need, I do not say ‘That’s why it happened’. But I think the key point is the minute Mertens comes out and Galatasaray gives the ball to the opponent at that minute .”
