Explaining that the red-white team is waiting for tough matches in the league and cup in the remaining weeks, the experienced coach said, “We will play back to back with Galatasaray in the league and with Fenerbahçe in the cup. We have matches against Kasımpaşaspor, Konyaspor and Kayserispor. We have tough matches and we are aware of that.‘ he said.

Rıza Çalımbay expressed his disappointment in the last week’s game in Spor Toto Super League, where they lost 4-1 to BirikimKredi Ümraniyespor, “We went to the game ready. Everyone’s head was there. Everyone knew that we would probably not have a problem when we got that match, but unfortunately we played a game beyond what we expected. Our friends did things they shouldn’t have done on the field.‘ he said.

Stating that Mustapha Yatabare’s receiving a red card changed the fate of the match, Çalimbay noted that they were sorry to lose due to the bad luck they had.

“EVERY YEAR 6-7 POINTS ARE GOING”

Çalimbay stated that he spent his 4th season in Sivasspor and that they were exposed to referee mistakes every season and continued as follows:

“Every year we lose 6-7 points from referee mistakes. This is the case this year. They didn’t even count our goal, they couldn’t find the reason for the cancellation. Our score passed and no one paid attention to it. First of all, the fans and the management must take care of the team. Because these always happen to us. It has been done before. They are ending the penalty of the player who has been suspended for 10 matches and he plays against us, scoring 2 goals. That’s why we have experienced such things here. Sivas is a good place for both away players and teams. The referee and our player friends are badly treated. He does not leave Sivas. It is easy for the referees as it is a good place. Even if they make a mistake, nothing happens. They say, ‘Sivas doesn’t make a sound anyway.’

Stating that the leader Galatasaray has the advantage in the championship race, Çalimbay said, “The most advantageous leader is Galatasaray. Beşiktaş has a very good exit. Last week’s loss of points in Fenerbahçe creates some trouble‘ he evaluated.
