During the press meeting organized right after the Super Cup final, our new Technical Director, Ertuğrul Sağlam made these meaningful comments regarding the game:

 ‘‘It is always sad to lose game when you play well. In spite of everything, I still congratulate Fenerbahçe on wining the Cup.
However, someone in Football Federation should explain to us the real reasons lying behind our playing 3 important games in a row before the start of the season. If we didn’t have any respect to our community and football lovers as a whole, we were going to start the game with our youth team. As everyone knows, we have a crucial Champion’s League game scheduled game for next Wednesday. But we gave up in the last in the last minute to avoid further complications.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly congratulate each one of my players on their courageous effort.’’
