Post match comments of our coach Fatih Terim and our players

After 1-1 draw against Club Brugge in Round 5 of UEFA Champions League Group A, our coach Fatih Terim and players gave their post-match comments.
Fatih Terim: "Especially in the second we could have scored the second goal. Chances came also in the second half. They also had narrow chances. We got this until the 92nd minute, we were playing defense with all of our players and seems to be holding the game. We were letting them play and closing our center well. Then I think it deflected from Mariano. This year we have this thing. This thing of conceding late in the games. Every lead that isn't 2-0 is dangerous for us. We played with ambition, desire, fight. My players fought really well, there was no problem in that aspect. We stopped four really quick and attacking wingers really well, since we did not have quick attacking players it was a plus on our side. We did not deserve this result. This could have been the start of something else. We will fight until the last game."
Jean Michel Seri: "It's how Champions League is. You can get ahead early and get caught late minutes. We scored a fast goal but we couldn't get on with it. We should have done that but we couldn't. In this level, what matters is the score. Now we have to get up concentrate for Sunday's game. Then we'll play against PSG in Paris. We must focus on these games."
Mario Lemina: "We lost three points today. This is what can be said. This was one of the most important matches for us. This was really important for us to go on our journey in Europe. We start the games well but we concede late goals usually. We could have done more."
Adem Büyük: "My emotions are complicated. I am happy and really sad. We shouldn't have finished a game we deserved to win like that, we are really sad. If we were a little bit better in final touches, we could have won with a margin. We conceded a late goal and lost a chance to win. We are sad but we will go on. I congratulate my teammates for their fight and thank the fans for their support. This is football, a momentary lapse in concentration costs a goal. From start to finish, we had high concentration. I think goal we conceded was bad luck. It deflects from Marcao. This is bad luck for us."
Ömer Bayram: "We started the game as we wanted. As I said in the pre-match press conference. We started out with fire, with ambition. I think we did that. When you look at the result, we are empty-handed. We are really sad. We deserved more. We deserved three points for our fans and for our confidence. It did not happen. There is bad luck with us in Champions League this season. Could we give more than that? We could. You should not concede a goal in the last minutes in such a game. Whatever the conditions, we must've finished this game. By biding our time, by holding the ball. In this level, you can't concede a goal in 92nd minute. Nothing to do. We have league and cup matches ahead. We will focus on them. We were also anxious. This was going to be a really important win for us to continue competing in Europe. We tried not to take risks in the end. But we shouldn't have conceded, I am really sad. Everyone in the team is really sad. We did not deserve this result. There is another game three days later. We will go on."
