In a post-match press conference, Beşiktaş Manager Tayfur Havutçu reflected on his team’s loss to Sivasspor.

“Coming into the game, we knew this was a must-win match for our relegation-threatened opponent. But instead of pulling back, we kept the play under control and fought hard for that go-ahead goal. Unfortunately, when Sivok got sent off, the things took a different course. I am satisfied with everyone’s performance because they gave everything they got out there. Now, we must forget this match and get ready for our upcoming cup tie.”
