After the match, Beşiktaş Captain İbrahim Üzülmez drew attention to the importance of Eagles’ victory over Bursaspor:

“Bursaspor are a physically strong team as they wear you out especially down the stretch. That’s how they win most of their matches. Having a man advantage out there really helped us tonight. Since most of the top teams also won this weekend, we had to win this match to stay close to the top. We are at a stage we cannot afford to drop any points. If we do, we are out of the title race. We are all aware of this situation and playing every game as if it was a final. Getting three points is more important than our performance right now so we are all delighted with the 3 points we got tonight.
I am trying to help the team both defensively and offensively. I am ready whenever I get the call and hope to play like this in the upcoming matches.”
