Göztepe forgot the goal celebration!

Göztepe, which has won the appreciation of many football fans, both neutral and biased, with its performance in the Trendyol Super League this season, has almost started to decline by recording 3 defeats and 1 draw in recent weeks. Following these results, the Izmir team, which has also distanced itself from its European dream, has dropped to 6th place with 35 points.

The increase in injuries and the fact that attacking players Romulo, Juan and Emersonn were away from the field at the same time also had a negative impact on the red-yellow team in terms of scoring. Göztepe, who last scored a goal in the Fenerbahçe match played on January 26, could not score in the matches against Alanyaspor, Bodrum FK and Kayserispor after that match.

Technical Director Stanimir Stoilov also made the following statements regarding this issue after the Kayserispor match: "We have not been able to score goals in the last 2-3 matches. Of course, it would be easy to attribute this to the absence of our center forwards, but it is definitely not an excuse. Whoever plays in that area should do their best, create positions and score goals."

ATTACKERS ARE SLOWLY RETURNING While the injuries experienced in Göztepe caused great sadness in the yellow-red community, Kubilay Kanatsızkuş, who had been suffering from an injury problem for a long time, recovered and returned to the team. Following Kubilay, Juan was the first to return from the trio of Romulo, Juan and Emersonn, who were injured in the past weeks. The Brazilian, who also played in the Kayserispor match, is expected to be included in the starting 11 in the coming weeks. It was learned that Romulo and Emersonn, two other injured players, will be back in their uniforms in a short time.
