Okan Buruk's assessment of the victory

Excitement in the 35th week of the Süper Lig saw Galatasaray host Sivasspor.

The yellow-reds left the match with a 6-1 victory. Galatasaray's goals were scored by Ziyech in the 11th and 60th minutes, Dries Mertens in the 38th and 73rd minutes, and Mauro Icardi in the 59th and 85th minutes. The Lions brought their point total to 96 and maintained their lead.

Galatasaray Head Coach Okan Buruk evaluated the victory for beIN SPORTS.

"It was a match that we started well and finished well from beginning to end. We scored beautiful goals. We had more possession throughout the game. We were happy with the victory on one hand, and happy with the goal difference on the other. We moved ahead of Fenerbahçe both in terms of points and goal difference. It is a very important, valuable victory. We will start preparing for the next match. My players' performance was very good. We know that our opponent sometimes defends with 8 or 9 players. They are a team that waits in defense, but they are also a team that gives up chances when you do the right things. There were 3 players focusing on Icardi. When we moved around throughout the game and made the right runs, things opened up. Both the full-back overlaps and the wings were very good. There were always 2-3 people playing with Icardi. We did not give our opponent too many chances. The two players up front were very effective. They had chances, but we gave up fewer chances compared to last week."

COMMENT ON ZIYECH

"Celebrating all together is a situation we always want. 11 people play, 5 people can come on. My players have their own individual thoughts. Hakim was one of the stars today. They experienced their joy all together. The family atmosphere and our children being together gives great pleasure. We really want our players to always be together."
