Our National Football Team lost 2-1 to Poland, the host of their last friendly match before EURO 2024. The coach of the Crescent-Stars, Vincenzo Montella, criticized referee Balazs Berke in his statement after the match. Montella said, "Referees can make mistakes, but they need to stop and correct them. They scored the second goal like that. This is not the first time. They need to improve on these things because our team suffers afterwards. I hope there won't be such things in the tournament."
In the last preparation match before EURO 2024, our National Football Team, which was defeated 2-1 by Poland, coach Vincenzo Montella criticized referee Balazs Berke after the match.
Montella's statements are as follows;
CRITICIZED THE REFEREES
"Overall, I can say that we played very well. Of course, there are areas to criticize. It should also be added that if the referees continue to make mistakes in friendly matches, they cause harm. In the second goal, our opponent takes the throw-in 15 meters ahead. Referees can make mistakes, but they need to stop and correct them. They scored the second goal like that. This is not the first time. They need to improve these things because our team suffers afterwards. I hope such things do not happen in the tournament.
"WE NEED TO BE MORE CLEAR OFFENSIVELY"
Today, we had some defensive players that we wanted to take risks with. We had a great wealth offensively. İrfan, Kerem, Semih, Hakan, we have such wealth in this style. The list goes on. The best ones were on the field, but we need to be more clear offensively and score goals. I have no concerns defensively because all the injured players will come back.
"I'M NOT WORRIED"
When you build a team, you need time. But we shouldn't worry after such a match. You produce twice as much against such an opponent, so we shouldn't worry. Why am I not worried? Because our team enters the last 20 meters very well. Tonight, among all our players on the field, there were the most goal scorers. Our team only needs to gain a little more clarity. I'm not worried because we are a productive team.
PLEASED WITH ARDA GÜLER
Arda played already. He played a very good match. We already know his skills when he has the ball. We need to improve his actions in periods when we don't have the ball, but overall, he was good."
