However, after the match, the narrative is not a score, Juventus’s rising star Kenan Yildiz’s citizen and Real Madrid midfielder Arda Guler was a provocative statement. Yildiz’s “Arda Guler did not do anything in the squad, but still won,” the comment, especially two young talent is seen as the future of national football in Turkey launched a storm of discussion in Turkey.
The match itself was a tactical war and both teams exhibited their depths and quality. Under the guidance of coach Igor Tudor, Juventus made a bright start with Yildiz playing an important role in attack movements. At the beginning of the match, the 20 -year -old Turkish star, Real Madrid defender Randal Kolo Muani’ye passed a accurate pass, Muani wasted a golden opportunity by throwing the ball out of the pole. Yildiz, a curled shot out of the pole out of the pole approached to score goals. Dynamism and creativity were clearly seen, as it was effectively united with teammates such as Andrea Cambiaso and Nicolas Gonzalez and kept the Real Madrid defense tense.
Rulled by Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid relied on trademark fluency and control. Arda Güler, who served as a player in the midfield of three people, showed shine glows, but was forced to impose himself steadily. The most remarkable moment came when the Juventus goalkeeper Michele di Gregorio released a foamy volley, which was blocked by the extraordinary rescue. Despite the limited impact of Güler, Real Madrid’s general domination allowed them to evaluate their chances, especially in playing the ball, and Garcia’s goal made a difference.
The post -match statements of Yıldız, reported by many sources, shifted the focal point to the growing competition between the two Turkish geniuses from the game. The statement, which was perceived as a reference to Güler’s contribution, led to a significant tension in the Turkish football community. Both players are celebrated as generation skills, while Yildiz succeeds in Juventus, while Güler emerges as a key figure in Alonso’s new -looking Real Madrid.

However, others see this as a sharp criticism that can force their relations, especially considering the common responsibilities of managing Turkey in future international tournaments. Social media platforms are full of discussions, especially X, fans and analysts analyzing the consequences implied by Yıldız’s words. Posts in X stressed the “duel önemli between the two, and some argued that Yildiz’s disappointment was due to the defeat of Juventus, despite their early promises.
This is not Yildiz’s first speech about Güler. He praised his citizen before the match and said to him with a bright future, “an extraordinary football player.” This contrast between the admiration of the pre -match and the criticism of the post -match fueled speculation about the underlying tensions. Some reports argue that Yildiz’s interpretation may reflect the disappointment of Juventus’s inability to evaluate his luck, and that Güler’s team prevailed despite his calm performance.
The wider context of the match adds another layer to the story. After a strong Serie A campaign and clubs World Cup, Juventus, who followed a self -confident run, saw the opportunity to make a statement against the European champions reigning.
