Palut: Our Position Is Clear, We Are Not in Good Shape

In Week 10 of the Trendyol Süper Lig, Konyaspor lost 4-0 to Galatasaray at the MEDAŞ Konya Metropolitan Stadium. Speaking after the match, head coach İlhan Palut stressed that the team must put this result behind them quickly and move on.

Palut said they had started the match evenly. He recalled that they conceded two goals from set pieces and said they had wanted the first half to end with at least two goals, believing this would both unsettle the opponent and help their own players gain confidence. However, he said they came out for the second half with substitutions, and within a short time the match had reached 4 goals.

Palut noted that the third goal came from a defensive error, and explained that after this goal Galatasaray settled into a comfortable tempo while his team could not find a solution. He said the opponent's players troubled his team with both their runs and their long-distance dribbling, and he congratulated Galatasaray, saying they are a quality side.

Palut said the team had very few lessons to take from this match and asked the players to forget it right away. "Our position is clear, we are not in good shape," said the head coach, emphasizing that the team must recover very quickly.
