"I really liked the team today. We showed great fighting spirit and created a lot of chances. The opposing team's goalkeeper also played brilliantly. However, we didn't give up and fought on until the end. Rafa's beautiful goal gave us a well-deserved victory.
 
I'm very happy for my players and the fans today. We showed our Beşiktaş spirit. All of my players played for their jerseys. We'll rest for a day or so, and then we’ll get ready for the Lausanne match."
