The Galatasaray manager evaluated the defeat to beIN SPORTS.
"We didn't play very well at the beginning of the match when it was 11 against 11. Our opponent produced more than we did. Our opponent closed down well. We needed to stretch our opponent a bit more. We needed to be a bit calmer. We were not good in terms of overall performance. We couldn't produce much. We couldn't use our individual talents correctly. Before the match, the player also thinks, 'The match will end, we will be champions.' None of us were good today. Our on-field performance today was not good. We left our championship for the next week. Konyaspor's situation is clear. This is an accident. I experienced this against Fenerbahçe in 2000. I am sad because we lost. We will do more next week and return as champions. We will do more to declare our championship next week."
