Reaction to the referee from Kerem Aktürkoğlu!

Galatasaray player Kerem Aktürkoğlu spoke after the İstanbulspor match.

In his statement, Kerem Aktürkoğlu said, "Matches like this can be dangerous after derbies. We talked about this. We had no tolerance for a loss of concentration. We started the match by conceding a goal, but then we came back. I thank my teammates for their efforts. There are matches during the week and on the weekend, and we get tired too."

Reacting to the referee, Kerem stated, "I want to stay focused on the pitch, but we are constantly being scolded by the referees. I went to ask the referee because the opponent kicked the ball after the whistle. He tells me to 'mind your own business.' We can't get anywhere like this. We are trying to stay focused on the pitch. We believe in the championship. Hopefully, we will be the side that becomes champion in the end."

Regarding the free-kick goal he scored, Kerem Aktürkoğlu said, "I work a lot on free kicks. I asked Dries Mertens to leave it for me, and I scored the goal."
