In the 33rd week of the Super Lig, league leaders Galatasaray defeated Pendikspor 4-1 at home.

With this result, the Yellow-Reds maintained their lead.

Evaluating the match on TV8.5, famous commentator Rıdvan Dilmen opened a special parenthesis for Icardi.

Here are Rıdvan Dilmen's assessments:

"In general, Galatasaray uses Muslera like an outfield player. One of the reasons for the lack of tempo in the match was the mindset that they would win this game regardless.

We have seen that Galatasaray has not been under pressure in their recent home matches. The reason for this is the team's overconfidence. They say, 'We will win the match anyway.' Overconfidence does not cause problems as long as it does not lead to complacency.

WORDS ON ICARDI FROM RIDVAN DİLMEN

Mauro Icardi told the team, 'You guys are sleeping, let me wake you up.' He made such a move on the pitch that it is a God-given talent. He came to the midfield, took the ball. He prepared his position and scored his goal.

Galatasaray has such 5-10 minute spells in the 90 minutes they play. They are so effective that the match could have suddenly become 5-6.

There was a very disorganized Galatasaray in the first half. Icardi warned the team in the second half and directed his team in their formation on the pitch. He also has leadership on the pitch.

Mauro Icardi is one of the greatest center-forwards Turkish football has ever seen. That includes Didier Drogba. He is a huge talent."
