In Galatasaray, which hosted Aytemiz Alanyaspor in the 5th week of the Super League, coach Fatih Terim gave an interview at the end of the match, BSNSports.com.ng reports. Speaking to the broadcaster's microphones, the experienced coach criticized Nigerian football player Oghenekaro Etebo, who received a red card in the first half, and the referee decisions. Stating that they started the game well and got ahead, Terim said, “We work on our shortcomings every week. We run into other unexpected problems while handling one side. This time we started dealing with 10 people. An unnecessary foul, we win 1-0, we go to the second goal. Of course, it is not easy to play 10 people in the second half. Especially after a lot of wear in the first half. Despite this, we had moves, we developed good attacks and found the goal ” . Referring to the goal that was canceled with the decision of 'VAR' in the second half, Terim said, “We have developed attacks despite 10 people. I think we found the goal, but it hit his hand. Our VARs are generally like health screenings, they scan our goals. Last second, an unexpected result. The worst possibility ends in a draw. We also entered goal positions, unfortunately, it did not happen. Another match in which efforts are a pity, ” he said. "NO BACKGROUND OF PROFESSIONALITY" On the other hand, Terim criticizing Etebo, who received a red card in the first half, said , “You are ahead, stay 11, if you want, get in a draw. Unfortunately, the second yellow card is one of the actions of our player that is not very professional. When it happens to us, the cards come out quickly. It's not easy to play missing one. Despite this, we struggled, unfortunately, it did not happen. We cannot avoid individual mistakes. You lose when there are so many individual mistakes at this level. I'm sorry of course I'm very sorry ” commented Etebo, 24, has been featured in four league games and two Europa League qualifying matches for Galatasaray since joining from English Championship side Stoke City in early September.
