Galatasaray Head Coach Okan Buruk made striking statements after the Tottenham match. Buruk referred to Fenerbahçe Head Coach Jose Mourinho's comments about Turkish football following the Trabzonspor match. "WE STARTED WITH A BOLD DECISION"Okan Buruk's statements are as follows; "Today we started with a somewhat bold decision in a 3-4-1-2 formation. We had the chance to prepare according to our opponent's formation and play style. We were able to prepare for this match for about 10 days. In terms of formation, we faced a team that played with a four-man defense for the first time with a three-man defense. I think we did much more than just win in the 70-minute period today. After the opponent was reduced to 10 men, we had some difficulties in certain matchups and in pressing situations. "A STATISTIC NOT SEEN IN A LONG TIME"It was 3-2, let's say it was the only position they came to. They didn't come much in the second half, and they didn't come much in the first half either. Overall, they had 4-5 shots, two of which were goals. Our number of shots and the positions we entered caused Tottenham to give statistics they haven't given in a long time. "WE DID IT AGAINST BAYERN"We saw how the Galatasaray fans united with their team; we applied all the pressures together. It was a very special night. Perhaps it was one of the most dominant performances by a Turkish team against an English team in Turkish football history. We had done this before against Bayern, but we couldn't score there. Today we did. REFERENCE TO MOURINHOWe clearly showed how a Turkish team can play. We demonstrated what Turkish football is. When we look at the insults directed at Turkish football, we showed what our quality is. We always underestimate ourselves. Yesterday Beşiktaş won, and previously they defeated Lyon. We have 10 points, while Fenerbahçe entered with 5 points. The achievements of our National Team are evident. Sometimes we belittle what we do. I want to dedicate this victory to Turkish football and the Turkish people. We contributed to the country’s points. We need to do our job well and talk about both the inside and outside of the field. "TURKISH FOOTBALL IS AN IMPORTANT VALUE"Overall, I think our formation and game plan worked. After the opponent was reduced to 10 men, we had problems in our pressing. Overall, it was an important night for Turkish football. Turkish football is an important value, and we demonstrated this on the field. We had a great night. I want to thank my players and our fans."
