Czech Republic match story
Speeches from the Crescent Stars team, who seemed to be having a lot of fun before the match against the Czech Republic, were also recorded on the day of the match.
“It’s our last game, I hope we win,” said Salih Ozkan, standing next to Kenan Yildiz on the bus. “I hope so,” the star player said, cheering on his teammate.
OKA’s comments on Calhanoclu’s goal
In an interview with Our Children, team captain Hakan Calhanoglu, who visited Hamburg before the match and inspected the stadium where the match would be played, talked about the legendary goal he scored against Dortmund while playing for Hamburg. Ok Yokuslu teased Calhanoglu by saying, “It wasn’t that far, but it looked better on TV.”
Hakan Calhanoglu said, “There was Nuri Sahin Archabey. It’s been 10 years now, right?” He continued his speech in his own words.
Akaydin: I hope we can become champions.
“I hope we win tomorrow – it’s the last match of the group anyway – and I want to do the best I can in this match to serve my country,” said Samet Akaidin, who was assessing the team along with teammates Yunus Akgün and Abdülkerim Bardakçi before the match against Czech Republic. “I think we will pass in the next round and I hope we will pass.” “No matter what anyone says, we will be champions,” he said. Yunus Akgün said, “I agree with everything that Samet Agabey said.” Kahn Ayhan echoed Yunus Akgün, saying, “I agree with Samet’s opinion.”
At that moment, center forward Bertug Yıldırım, who joined the team later, said: “I have just arrived. My brother Abdulkerim has already told me what is necessary.”
Arda Güler also spoke out as our team continues to tour the stadium. “We have always been beating the Czech Republic lately,” Güler said, adding, “I hope we can win again.” He concluded by saying, “It is very important for us to win this match. That’s why we will perform very well tomorrow, all together,” Barış Alper Yılmaz, who was named man of the match against the Czech Republic, said before the match. “I hope we win,” he said.
Arda also knew about the Czech Republic.
A conversation between Arda Güler and Ferdi Kadıoğlu as they walked together to the team bus drew attention. In response to Güler’s question, “Win or draw?”, Kadıoğlu replied, “What do you think?” He then asked a counter question. Arda Güler said, “I think we will win, but what do you think?” He then asked Ferdi Kadıoğlu again. The moment continued like this:
Ferdy Kaduol: How much?
Arda Güler: I think it’s 2-1, what do you think?
Ferdy Kadduor: I think it’s 3-1.
