Thomas Reis: We could have finished the match earlier

Trabzonspor beat Corendon Alanyaspor 2-0 away in Week 11 of the Trendyol Süper Lig. Head coach Thomas Reis said they performed well from start to finish and could have finished the match earlier.

Reis recalled that they had won six matches in a row and had also won this one without conceding a goal. Saying he was proud of the team, Reis noted that the players would get a little more rest during the international break. He said that once injured players return, the squad's quality will be much better, and this will show in their final passes, their goal scoring and their defending.

Emphasizing that he saw a group of players who fight on the pitch, Reis said that going out with the same mentality every time is the basic requirement. He noted that fatigue makes it harder to stay focused and that playing matches back to back is not easy.

Reis stressed that quality alone is not enough and that it must be combined with hard work and good fighting spirit. Saying they had collected 18 points from six matches and now sit second with 25 points, Reis stated that this total may be enough to stay in the league but will never be enough for the club's goals.

Also touching on fan support, Reis said he was happy they could give their supporters a 3-point gift in home matches. He added that the previous coaching staff had also taken some points and that a good start had been made.
