Dzeko, Talisca, and Skriniar Speak After Fenerbahçe’s Dramatic 3-2 Victory Over Çaykur Rizespor!

Fenerbahçe secured a thrilling 3-2 victory over Çaykur Rizespor in the Trendyol Süper Lig. The Yellow Canaries‘ goals came from Edin Dzeko (2) and En-Nesyri. With this win, Fenerbahçe reached 51 points, reducing the gap with Galatasaray to three points, albeit having played one more match.

After the match, Dzeko, Talisca, and Skriniar shared their thoughts with beIN SPORTS.

Edin Dzeko:

“It was a crazy game with lots of ups and downs. Conceding two goals in the first 10 minutes is unacceptable, especially in our home stadium. We must correct our mistakes. Coming back from 2-0 is never easy. Age is just a number—it’s about how you feel mentally and how you take care of your body. Staying fit every day is crucial because we earn our living through football. At a certain age, you must be extra careful. I always stay positive and enjoy the game. As long as I’m on the pitch, I will give my best.”

Anderson Talisca:

“First of all, I’m really happy to be back in Turkey. It was an incredible return. The transfer process took a long time, and I was eager to wear the Fenerbahçe jersey as soon as possible. I feel good, but I need time to be at 100%. I played 30-40 minutes today, and I feel fine. We are happy with the win. I want to thank my teammates and everyone at the club—my adaptation has been very smooth.”

Milan Skriniar:

“It was a crazy match. Honestly, we didn’t start well, but later, we created plenty of chances. We were also unlucky—three or four of our shots hit the post. Winning in my first match was a great feeling. I returned to the pitch after two months, and it wasn’t easy. Now, we want to keep winning.”
