Stoilov: Fenerbahçe will recover and rise again

Göztepe faced Fenerbahçe away in Week 10 of the Trendyol Süper Lig and left with a win. With this result, Göztepe earned their fourth consecutive league victory.

In the first half, Göztepe failed to make the most of their chances, while Fenerbahçe scored from the one opportunity they got. Stoilov said his side showed too much respect to their opponents in the first half. He said the game changed direction in the second half and that they took three valuable points as a result. The head coach said he considered it important that his young players' confidence had grown in particular.

Stoilov reminded that at the start of the season four or five defenders were injured, and that they could not set up the defensive line the way they wanted. He said the team's performance improved after the injured players returned. Stressing that scoring two or three goals in every match is important for a team, he said they had recently started conceding goals and needed to correct this.

The head coach also spoke about the great importance of set-piece work in today's football. He said he did not want to comment on Fenerbahçe. He stated that he respects the club and mentioned the great players he played alongside for a short time in Istanbul. Stoilov said he believes Fenerbahçe will recover and rise again.
