I can’t be stopped with Icardi

Victor Osimhen expressed that they are a significant force alongside Argentine striker Mauro Icardi. Playing as a pair of strikers in the match against Elfsborg, Osimhen said they have good chemistry together. The Nigerian forward stated, “Playing with Icardi is exciting. He was almost assisting me. He’s a great player. Playing with him is extraordinary. I enjoy it. I believe no defense can withstand us when we play together.”

Regarding the match, Osimhen commented, “We knew it would be tough. The opponent was solid in defense. We’re happy to have won. We had some scary moments toward the end. I didn’t score, but the important thing is that the team won. I also congratulate the opponent; they fought well.”

“If I knew why we conceded so many goals, I would say”

Dries Mertens of Galatasaray, whose shot hit the post during the match, emphasized that they shouldn’t have conceded that many goals despite the victory. The Belgian player said, “I don’t know why we conceded so many goals; if I knew, I would tell you the reason.”

Speaking about the double striker system, Mertens noted, “This system was a choice in the coach’s mind. He wanted to try it out. We should ask him about the details, but I think we will adapt to it.”

“We need to analyze this match; the goals we conceded are disappointing”

Galatasaray defender Davinson Sanchez stated that the Elfsborg match needs a thorough analysis. The Colombian defender said, “I think we need to analyze some fundamental aspects. It was a match we needed to control better. There were things that didn’t go as we wanted. As a team and in defense, we need to pay attention and perform well at certain moments. It’s disappointing to concede goals in the final moments. On the other hand, we’re happy to have won. Every match is important for us. We aim for the lead in both the league and Europe. The match against Tottenham will be special, but we need to focus on Beşiktaş first.”

“We had a loss of concentration, but we showed our strength”

Galatasaray’s Brazilian midfielder Gabriel Sara, speaking after the Elfsborg match, stated, “It was a very good game. There was a loss of concentration at times, which shouldn’t have happened. We showed that we are a big team. Even though we conceded 3 goals, we didn’t fall out of the game. We will continue by looking at what we did well and what we didn’t.”
