Volkan Demirel: I am sad because we lost the 3 points

In the 13th week of the Trendyol Super Lig, Gençlerbirliği was defeated 3-2 by Galatasaray in an away match. Speaking at the press conference held after the match, Gençlerbirliği Manager Volkan Demirel said, "The first half was a game that went as we wanted. 

If the position we caught at the back post in the second half had been a goal, we would be talking about something different right now. You might think we are sad about missing out on 1 point, but I am sad because we lost the 3 points. There was a team that tried to do whatever I said. İlkay's entry into the game was effective for Galatasaray. 

We knew that Galatasaray created positions from crosses from the wings. We had worked on these during the week.

You are playing against Galatasaray, you have to capitalize on the positions you create. We did what we wanted in the first half. I congratulate Galatasaray. Even competing in this way is gratifying for me.

I told the players the same thing. They are all very sad. They are not sad because we missed out on 1 point, but because we could not win," he said.
