Sports writers comment on Fenerbahçe's 6-1 defeat: 'The reason for this disgrace...'

Having made a magnificent start to the season, Fenerbahçe has been living a nightmare for the last month after key names like Fred, Djiku, and Becao were injured.

The yellow-navies, who were guests of Nordsjaelland in the Conference League, were defeated 6-1 by their opponent. 

Sports writers evaluated the match.

The comments of the sports writers are as follows:

UĞUR MELEKE: THE FATE FOR LEADERSHIP IS NO LONGER IN THEIR OWN HANDS

 "Unfortunately, we have left behind a very unpleasant Thursday night for Turkish football. Under normal circumstances, when team qualities are weighed, Fenerbahçe should have finished their group as leaders, and Beşiktaş at least second. However, unfortunately, Beşiktaş said goodbye early. Fenerbahçe's fate for leadership is no longer in their own hands. In 15 days, our representative will beat Trnava in Kadıköy and keep an ear out for the Ludogorets-Nordsjaelland match." (Hürriyet)

GÜRCAN BİLGİÇ: MEDICALLY RETIRED FROM EUROPE

Gürcan Bilgiç: "Can the balance of a team be disrupted this much? It is actually meaningless to start describing the match with a question. Injuries aside, there are those who were not written on the UEFA list (Samet, Emre Mor, Mert Müldür, or Bartuğ). İsmail Kartal will put 11 people on the field, but who will he play where? This is where the biggest mistake was made. İsmail, the best of the midfield, came to the center-back position. You lost both the defense and the center... Tadic came behind the striker, Szymanski to the number eight position. Thus, their habits in offensive efficiency were interrupted, and the front line remained indecisive. İsmail Kartal must either explain why those coming from the bench are so bad, desperate, out of form, or emotionless, or he must find a solution. There cannot be a coach who is so distant from his squad and cannot calculate his expectations." (Fotomaç)

ERCAN GÜVEN: ‘THE REASON FOR THIS DISGRACE…’

"What was the problem with Fenerbahçe, which left its group leadership on the icy artificial turf of Northern Europe like a baby abandoned in a mosque courtyard, and surrendered even qualifying from the group to goal difference calculations in the last match? First, let's name it: The Fenerbahçe team has not been 'missing' for a month; it has been 'half'... And the lost half, the cream on top! In a team that has sent its starting eleven, which would be ahead in every track it runs, to the orthopedist, to bed, or to the stands, there would naturally be some sporting regression and things lost. However, the reason for such a difference and disgrace is that instead of knowing Fenerbahçe's deficiencies and playing accordingly, they said, 'We are putting 11 people on the field anyway.' Fenerbahçe, which was defeated 6-1 with goals that were like copies of each other, is for now only 'medically retired' from Europe." (Milliyet)

ENGİN VEREL: TIME TO FOCUS ON THE PITCH

"In this match, we watched the 'best Fenerbahçe in history' worth 250 million euros get beaten 6-0 by a Danish team worth 37 million euros. I hope it is time to focus on the pitch, not off it. This should not only apply to Fenerbahçe. Witnessing these matches of Beşiktaş and Fenerbahçe has pained the heart of every citizen. It is time to return to reality..." (Akşam)

İLKER YAĞCIOĞLU: WE COULD NEITHER DEFEND NOR ATTACK

"Fenerbahçe was a disappointment against Nordsjaelland both in terms of score and play. The injuries are known to all of us. When we added starting the match with players who do not find much chance to play to this, I honestly could not recognize the team on the field. We could neither defend nor attack. The painful part is that we could not fight at all. You can lose, but you cannot be defeated this disorganized and without fighting. All players, including İsmail Kartal, should be prepared for the anger of the Fenerbahçe fans." (Takvim)
