In the 34th week of Trendyol Super League, Adana Demirspor lost 3-0 to Galatasaray at home. Speaking at the post-match press conference, Adana Demirspor Coach Hikmet Karaman said, “We created very important positions in the first 45 minutes. Goalkeeper Muslera must be congratulated. It was 1-0 and 2-0 in the second half. My players fought well. We put forward a performance that deserves applause in terms of play and position, right up to the goal. Galatasaray took the upper hand in the last stages of the match. I also thank our fans. There was a very nice atmosphere before the match. “I wish Galatasaray success from now on,” he said.
“All our plans came true in the first 45 minutes”
Stating that Adana Demirspor is experiencing difficulties, Karaman said, “This team is a 12-week team. Adana Demirspor team has been playing with groups of players who have been trying to get to know each other for 12 weeks. The team of previous seasons is not available. All our plans came true in the first 45 minutes. After the goals we conceded, morale went down. You are playing against a team like Galatasaray and you have clear positions in the first half. In football, sometimes morale takes precedence over physical fitness. You saw how relieved he was after 2-0. Yusuf Sarı and Emre Akbaba are very important players but they were absent. We made the best planning possible with the players we had. A great match was watched. Football is a game, you will applaud. You will also support these players. From time to time, clubs may experience economic and management difficulties. We are checking this right now. Semih Güler’s injury also affected us. “We put forward a fight that should be applauded,” he said.
