Samsunspor manager Thomas Reis expressed his satisfaction after his team secured a narrow 1-0 victory against Eyüpspor in the Trendyol Super League, acknowledging the team's fatigue but highlighting their resilience and the crucial support from both the bench and the fans. Speaking at the post-match press conference, Reis emphasized the team's hard work and dedication, particularly given their demanding schedule.

"I can say that we were

"I can say that we were tired as a team in the first half," Reis admitted, adding that the second half saw a significant improvement in performance. "Our pressure was intense, and then we found the goal. We deserved to score." He lauded his players for their commitment, especially considering the frequency of their matches, praising the impact of the substitutes who contributed significantly to the win.

Reis was particularly appreciative of the Samsunspor fans, noting their unwavering support throughout the game. "I hope everyone saw the support of the fans today," he said. "In the end, they showed great support to the team. When we said we were tired, they supported us. When we got the win, we celebrated with them."

Looking ahead, Reis provided an update on the team's injured players, offering a glimmer of hope for the return of Olivier Ntcham after the international break. He acknowledged that the return of other injured players would take more time.

Despite the victory, Reis remained critical

Despite the victory, Reis remained critical of the team's finishing, pointing out their inability to convert numerous opportunities into goals. "Even though it was just one goal, we still managed to win today," he stated. "Overall, we had plenty of opportunities, but we didn't capitalize on them. We'll be training and evaluating these shortcomings."

The international break offers a much-needed respite for the squad, allowing players to rest and recuperate before facing a challenging period. Reis revealed that the team faces a demanding schedule upon their return, with nine matches scheduled within a single month. This period will undoubtedly test the depth and resilience of the Samsunspor squad as they strive to build on this hard-fought victory and climb the Trendyol Super League table. The team's ability to convert chances and manage fatigue will be crucial factors in navigating this demanding stretch.
