BRONCKHORST: IT WAS A SAD MATCH

Beşiktaş manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst stated after the Maccabi Tel Aviv match, "It was a sad match."

In the 5th week of the UEFA Europa League, Beşiktaş lost 3-1 to the Israeli team Maccabi Tel Aviv in Debrecen, Hungary. Beşiktaş manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst made statements at the press conference held after the match. Bronckhorst said, "It was a sad match. We did not start the game well. Paulista got injured. We found the equalizer with Rafa. We conceded a goal we shouldn't have before the first half ended. We started the second half well. The momentum changed when the penalty was missed. Then we conceded the third goal. We are all very sad. We are not good right now."

"THE PERFORMANCE IN THE FIRST HALF LACKED FIGHT"

The Dutch manager emphasized that this is not the normal standard of Beşiktaş, stating, "The last few weeks may have affected the players. It is very difficult for me to point to a direct cause. The performance in the first half was timid, lacked tempo, and lacked fight. The second half was a bit better, but it was not up to Beşiktaş's standards."

"I AM A PERSON WHO DOES NOT GIVE UP"

When asked by a journalist about resignation, Van Bronckhorst replied, "We are not experiencing our best moments right now. It is a disappointment for all of us. We are not performing well, and we couldn't win today. There will be criticism in these moments. As a coach, I have experienced worse situations. I am a person who does not give up. I will fight to change this."
