Göztepe, who lost 3-2 to Galatasaray in the Süper Lig, could not start the season as they wanted, taking 2 defeats and 1 draw in the first 3 weeks. The Izmir team, experiencing defensive problems, conceded 7 goals in 3 matches.

Göztepe, who lost 3-2 to Galatasaray away in the Super League, has been unable to find a turning point. The yellow-reds, who also rebelled against referee Mehmet Türkmen's decisions, made a poor start to the season with 2 losses and 1 draw in 3 matches.

TOOK 1 POINT IN 3 MATCHES, CONCEDED 7 GOALS

Göz-Göz, who suffered their first defeat in the 9th week last season, disappointed their fans in the Super League, which they started with a new European goal. Göztepe, experiencing major problems in defense, conceded 7 goals in 3 matches. Last season, Göz-Göz had conceded 7 goals after 14 weeks. The İzmir team, who bid farewell to center-back Heliton, goalkeeper Mateusz Lis, and left-back Amin Cherni, has begun to miss its departed players.

GALATASARAY PHOBIA CONTINUES

Göztepe, unable to benefit from center-backs Furkan Bayır, Allan Godoi, and Sonko Sundberg due to serious injuries, has also not been able to trust Georgian goalkeeper Luka Gugeshashvili, who was included in the squad to replace Lis, so far. Göztepe again failed to overcome their misfortune against Galatasaray. Göztepe, who last beat the yellow-reds 1-0 in Istanbul in the 1972-1973 season, has not been able to secure a win in Istanbul since then. Göztepe has also lost the last 10 consecutive matches against Galatasaray. Göz-Göz last beat Galatasaray 2-1 at home in the 2019-2020 season.
