Flash injury update from Okan Buruk! 'We don't know when he will return'

Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk made statements following the match against Sparta Prague.

Here are Okan Buruk's comments...

"It was a very good match. We knew the opponent was effective on the counter-attack, but we also knew they gave away chances. If we had made the right passes around the penalty area in the first half, we could have scored more goals. We played with ten men for 18 minutes, but we still did effective work."

"SERGE AURIER HAS AN INJURY"

"We wanted to win the match, and after the opponent went down to 10 men in the 80th minute, we made attacking moves. We secured an important victory against a strong team in the final. We have gained an advantage, but we haven't won anything yet. Victor Nelsson received a red card, and three of their players are now suspended. We will prepare well for the return leg as well."

"Their motivation against you is very high. We need to provide the same response and perform better in terms of quality. We are going through a very busy schedule, and our biggest problem is that we don't have a very deep bench. Our rotation power in defense has decreased. We have more options in attack. Serge Aurier came from the Africa Cup of Nations. He played 7 matches, and in the last match, he felt a pull in his hamstring. Yener İnce said there is a second-degree strain. We don't know when he will return."

"MUSLERA HAD A WONDERFUL DAY"

"Fernando Muslera had a wonderful day again. He stayed on his feet and saved the ball with his head. Let's not forget Mauro Icardi's goal. Carlos Vinicius drew the defense toward him, and Icardi finished brilliantly. We also thank the fans."
