Personally, this cup marks a significant milestone for Tekke, being his first as a head coach. "There are many cups in my career, thank God. Some of them are things that have not happened to anyone else. As a coach, this is the first," he shared. However, his focus is already on the future. "The goals at Trabzonspor are very big. Next year, we may experience some problems. The first year of the setup went very well." He concluded by reiterating his happiness but prioritizing the fans' joy: "I am very happy, but the most important thing is that the fans go home happy without sadness. It was a deserved journey, we completed the story."
