Referee reaction from Okan Buruk: Position clear foul

Galatasaray Coach Okan Buruk made a statement after the match in which they defeated Alanyaspor 1-0.

“HOPE THIS WILL END”

“Football is exciting, but there are also tragedies we experience. Everyone must react to the violence we experience. We must all reveal everything on our own behalf. We experience worse events every day. I hope these will end.”

“THE POSITION WITHOUT FOUL IS CLEAR”

“We saw it as a foul at the last minute, the position where the referee did not give a foul is the clearest position. At this standard, he gave many fouls, the movement in the penalty area looked like a foul. We can count it as Alanyaspor’s clear position. I have not watched the position yet.”

“WE CONTINUE TO BE A LEADER”

“We were the leader, we continue to be the leader. We are trying to open the gap with our rivals. We played 7 matches in 22 days. People see us as robots. There are a lot of injuries in Europe. The players need to rest. We are putting a lot of pressure on the players. We finished the difficult series of 7 matches by winning. We are good players. We are a good team and we will continue winning.”

“WE ARE GOING AT THE FRONT”

“Galatasaray is ahead for the championship and for the 5th star.”

“WE DON’T HAVE THE LUXURY OF LOSING”

“You do not have the luxury of drawing or losing! You have to win every match in Europe. Kasımpaşa and Alanyaspor also tried to play and get results. As the quality increases, the league will be more enjoyable. Fatigue can also appear. But I am happy with the performance of my players.”
