Nihat Kahveci commented on Galatasaray's 3-0 victory against RAMS Başakşehir. Stating that Galatasaray's most beloved player is not Victor Osimhen, Nihat Kahveci said, "It has been proven again. Nhaga played his first match at the Galatasaray stadium, and the moment he touched the first ball, the stadium erupted. We wondered what kind of love this is for a player. He entered the game again, touched the first ball, and the stadium erupted."

Sports commentator Nihat Kahveci evaluated the match in which Galatasaray defeated RAMS Başakşehir 3-0 in the Trendyol Super League on Kontraspor YouTube. Nihat Kahveci stated that the most loved football player of Galatasaray is not Osimhen and revealed who it is.

''A UNYIELDING BARIS ALPER YILMAZ''

Speaking about the performance of national player Barış Alper Yılmaz, Nihat Kahveci said, "There is an unyielding Barış Alper Yılmaz. His struggle, ambition, and athleticism speak for themselves. This is a feature that makes a significant difference in the Super League, but Barış Alper has brought this level to such a point that he is the player who has shown the most cards to left-backs in the Champions League against his opponents. This is an incredible situation."

''WRITING HIS NAME STEP BY STEP IN GALATASARAY HISTORY''

Praising Uğurcan Çakır, Nihat Kahveci said, "Uğurcan is more than a goalkeeper. Uğurcan is a libero, Uğurcan is a number 6, Uğurcan is an attacking midfielder... The passes he makes from the back, the game setup, the long balls he sends to Lang and Barış, the balls he plays to the players he sees in the center... He uses his feet, he uses his hands, he uses his head... And he is just as much a gentleman. Galatasaray is lucky with this goalkeeper. Simovic, Taffarel, Mondragon, Muslera, and now Uğurcan. He is writing his name step by step in Galatasaray history. The one who scores and the one who saves will be important."

''THE MOST LOVED PLAYER IS NOT OSIMHEN BUT NHAGA''

Stating that Ngaha, who was transferred during the mid-season transfer period, is the most loved player among the fans within the team, Kahveci said, "No one should say that Galatasaray's most loved player is Osimhen. Galatasaray's most loved football player was proven again today (yesterday). I say this with a bit of irony. Nhaga had played his first match at the Galatasaray stadium, and the moment he touched the first ball, the stadium erupted. We wondered what such love for a player is. Today (yesterday) he entered the game again, touched the first ball, and the stadium erupted. It is very important for a midfielder to go there for the goal. He scored, sprinted, and said, 'I respond to this love.' He also played well in the away match against Alanya and scored a beautiful goal."
