”I don’t think I played very well today but still stayed focus and scored the goal that brought us the three points. Against tough teams like Kasımpaşa that’s what it counts because they keep you under tight coverage the whole game. I hope we can show the same character as a team against Galatasaray next week. It will definitely be a fast-paced derby.”

“If we played the second half with 11 men, we could’ve won this match much more easily. After the red card, we had to pull back and turn to counter-attacking football. With all those non-stop cheering fans, we looked like a real contender out there today.”

“For a change, I played right-back in this game Over all, our defence looked exceptionally solid and did not give away any serious chances. Now, we must forget about this match and concentrate on next week’s derby against Galatasaray.”

“We are used to playing with 10 men on the pitch. Despite losing our stopper, the defence stayed together and managed to keep them at bay. At the half-time interval, I told everyone that we were going to win this game even shorthanded. It was nice to see that they all shared the same belief. Believing is achieving.”
