İrfan Can, who could not hold back his tears after the match, said, “I wouldn’t normally play in this match. Yesterday I went to Ankara with my wife. My wife said to me, ‘Play for our baby’. Today, three balls came back from the post. I think he protected the castle. I thank everyone who sent their good wishes. ” said.
“SEE YOU IN HEAVEN, MY GIRL”
The young goalkeeper, who made Turkey cry, said, “Life goes on, I hope we will get through this. I also want to thank our teacher. He told me not to come for 20 days, a month, but I wanted to be with my team and my wife wanted it too much. We couldn’t win for a long time and today “We won. I think it was because of my baby’s luck.”
Irfan Can, who also made emotional statements on his social media account, said, “First of all, my dear wife, who always supports me, I am so glad to have you and always be. We will get through this like all the things we have been through together. Then we will always thank our president, our managers, my teachers, our staff members, our teammates. And thank you very much to the glorious Göztepe supporters. Last and foremost, my dear daughter Defne, I felt that you were by my side so much that I will see you in heaven, my dear daughter.”
