Nihat Hatipoğlu's response to the question 'Why can't Fenerbahçe become champion?' draws laughs

Nihat Hatipoğlu, who appears before audiences with iftar and sahur programs throughout Ramadan, drew attention this time with a football-themed question. A viewer who spoke during the live broadcast asked, "Even though Fenerbahçe fans pray every year, they haven't been able to become champions for 11 years; what are the fans doing wrong while praying?"

The expression on Hatipoğlu's face, who experienced a brief moment of surprise at the question, caused laughter in the studio. After a short pause, Hatipoğlu responded with a humorous approach.

"THEY WILL USE THEIR FEET WELL BEFORE PRAYING"

Hatipoğlu stated, "Before praying, they will use their feet well, they will play well. When they play well, they get the reward. A person receives the reward for what they work for. They will pay attention to their training, play well, pass well, feed the forward, and their defense will be strong. If they follow the coach's instructions, Fenerbahçe will also win and become champion."
