Fenerbahçe is not thinking about losing at all."

Sports commentator Sinan Engin made statements regarding the Fenerbahçe-Galatasaray derby to be played on Monday, December 1, in the 14th week of the Super League. Speaking to the Asist Analiz YouTube channel, Engin made striking remarks.

"YOU CAN'T CATCH THEM WITHOUT MORALE"

Sinan Engin expressed that Fenerbahçe would not be able to catch their opponent in such a weakened state in another period, saying, "Fenerbahçe is currently thinking, 'We can't catch Galatasaray like this again, we can win in this condition.' You really can't catch Galatasaray in such a weakened and demoralized state again. If the match ends in a draw, Okan Buruk will say, 'That's it.'

"FLAGS WILL BE AT HALF-MAST IN FENERBAHÇE"

Sinan Engin stated that if Galatasaray wins against Fenerbahçe, there will be great sadness among the yellow-navy blue team, saying, "If Fenerbahçe loses to this Galatasaray squad, the flags will be at half-mast, and there will be mourning in Fenerbahçe. Fenerbahçe is not thinking about losing at all. A draw is a good result for Galatasaray in the derby. If they can get 1 point from Saraçoğlu with these injuries and this demoralization, Okan Buruk should kiss it and put it on his head."
