Samsunspor Coach Fink: 'A Very Good Atmosphere Awaits Us' Against Galatasaray

Samsunspor's technical director, Thorsten Fink, shared his thoughts following the team's hard-fought 3-2 victory against Corendon Alanyaspor in the Trendyol Süper Lig. Fink highlighted the challenges of playing a league match so soon after a demanding 120-minute Ziraat Turkey Cup game, explaining the necessity of fielding a significantly rotated squad – nine changes were made from the previous lineup. Despite the fatigue and the warm weather, Fink praised his team's performance, emphasizing their effective play both with and without the ball. This win marks a significant achievement, being the first victory away at Alanyaspor in a long time, a fact that brought considerable happiness to the team. Fink pointed out that his team controlled the game and created opportunities, even managing to extend their lead to three goals. However, he also identified the last 3-4 minutes as a negative aspect, where the team conceded two goals, a point that will require discussion. Fink expressed satisfaction in giving playing time to players who haven't featured much recently, though he regretted not keeping a clean sheet. The focus now shifts entirely to the upcoming crucial match against Galatasaray. Fink anticipates a "very good atmosphere" with strong support from their fans and vows that the team will give their utmost effort in that game.
