In the Galatasaray-Fenerbahçe derby, Okan Buruk chose to go with goalkeeper Fernando Muslera. While fans were hoping for Günay Güvenç, who has been performing well recently, to be given a chance, Buruk opted for experience. Muslera holds the title of the goalkeeper with the most appearances in derbies. On the other hand, backup goalkeeper Günay also stands out with his performance whenever he gets the opportunity.
Both sides are now waiting for the match time in the Galatasaray-Fenerbahçe derby. The goalkeeper choice, which was a dilemma for Okan Buruk, has been resolved.
MUSLERA WILL BE IN GOAL
Fernando Muslera is a name that stands out for making an impact in derbies. Muslera, who earned the title of the goalkeeper with the most appearances in derbies from Volkan Demirel in the previous Fenerbahçe match, will match Bülent Korkmaz if he plays today. The record for the most appearances is held by Rıza Çalımbay with 60 matches, and Muslera needs to play 5 more derbies to catch up with Çalımbay.
GÜNAY'S PERFORMANCE IS RISING
Despite being the backup goalkeeper, Günay performs like a regular starter whenever given the opportunity. Perhaps it was Günay who prevented a nightmarish score against AZ Alkmaar. However, Okan Buruk's choice was Muslera.
Okan Buruk chose to trust Muslera, who has stood out with his derby performances, even though he has experienced a decline in form recently. Trusting Muslera's experience, Okan Buruk expects a lot from him in this match.
