Fred Highlights Key Issue in Derby Draw: “Final Passes Were Lacking”
Fenerbahçe’s Brazilian midfielder Fred stated that their biggest shortcoming in the 0-0 derby draw against Galatasaray was their final passes.
In the 25th week of the Trendyol Süper Lig, Fenerbahçe faced Galatasaray away and ended the match in a goalless draw. After the game, Fred shared his thoughts on the match.
Here are Fred’s statements to beIN Sports:
“WE DIDN’T GIVE THE OPPONENT SPACE OR CHANCES”
“Of course, we are not happy because we came here to win. We played well, but there were areas we needed to improve. However, we didn’t give the opponent much space or opportunities. We really wanted to take three points. We are going home disappointed because we wanted to win. Important matches are ahead, and we must win them all. We need to lift our heads up.”
“OUR BIGGEST ISSUE WAS FINAL PASSES”
“Actually, as midfielders, we played well during the match. But I think our main issue today was problems with our final passes. We could have been much better in that aspect. We fought hard in midfield, but unfortunately, we couldn’t capitalize on the chances we created.”
