In Galatasaray, which entered a critical turn in the summit race with 5 weeks left in the Trendyol Süper Lig, the striking detail behind the lost points drew attention.
An interesting detail behind the points lost this season has caught attention at Galatasaray, who continue their championship march in the Trendyol Süper Lig. Almost half of the 19-point loss experienced by the yellow-red team this season came from teams managed by "old friends" who have passed through Florya.
GALATASARAY WAS UPSET BY THEIR "OLD FRIENDS"
Galatasaray, who are calculating championship chances with only 5 weeks left in the Süper Lig, drew attention with the points lost. The students of Okan Buruk, who lost a total of 19 points this season, experienced 9 points of these losses against teams coached by names who once wore the Galatasaray jersey or are legends of the community.
SELÇUK İNAN TRIPPED THEM UP IN TWO MATCHES
Galatasaray's former captain and unforgettable midfielder Selçuk İnan, at the helm of Kocaelispor where he took the coaching seat, virtually gave no passage to the yellow-reds. The Lion on the championship path left a total of 5 points in the matches played against Selçuk İnan's team, taking the heaviest damage in the title race at this point.
ONE POINT EACH FROM SERGEN YALÇIN AND BURAK YILMAZ
The "old friends" bill was not limited to just Selçuk İnan. Two important strikers who once sweated in the yellow-red jersey also stood against Galatasaray as coaches. Cimbom, who conceded 2 points to their rival managed by Sergen Yalçın in the Beşiktaş derby, also missed out on 2 points in the away match against Gaziantep FK, coached by another former star, Burak Yılmaz.
