Amedspor head coach Besnik Hasi gave his verdict after the 3-0 win over Erzurumspor FK. Hasi said his side started somewhat tense and needed better execution in the first half, but raised their intensity after the break and found three goals.
He dedicated the win directly to the stands, calling the result a gift to the supporters and noting that the club's long climb had been crowned by the evening. Of Dia Saba, who scored twice, he said the forward had earned the reward for his work.
The coach was equally direct about the squad. Hasi said the board was working hard, but that gaps remained in some areas — a left-sided centre-back in particular — and that the team would improve further with the players still to arrive.
Asked where Amedspor might finish, he was deliberately measured: it is far too early to discuss the final table. That was exactly the composure you would expect from the manager of a side playing its first top-flight season. Amedspor left week one with three points and a controlled kind of confidence.
