October 1 News Early this morning, Galatasaray defeated Liverpool 1-0 in the Champions League. After the game, Galatasaray coach Okan Brooke talked about the decision to let Sane replace him.

Brook said: "Sane is a very important player, and we decided to let Gundogan start in the midfield."

"Why didn't Sane come on the court? Because we were in the lead, I replaced Sara and El Marley. They have strong defensive abilities. We are very happy to have Sane. He is a very important and strong player."

Galatasaray's former player and CanliTV commentator Mustafa Sap also talked about Sane's no chance to play after the game. He said: "In my opinion, Okan Brooke showed his authority today by not allowing Sane to play at all. In this team, anyone may become a substitute, and depending on the situation, sometimes it may not be able to play."
