"I'm happy that we got three points. It was important for us to react. Although we didn't play perfectly, we are trying to play offensively. There are mistakes from time to time. It would be better if we scored more goals. We wanted to show the fans that we are fighting and improving," Rashica said after the match.

"I'm used to playing as a striker. In Turkey I played on the right wing. Earlier in my career I played on the left wing, but also as a center forward. Playing as a striker was better for me. I was able to make runs behind the defense. My teammates also tried to pass the ball to me in these positions. That's how we scored the goal. I will do my best for the team," Rashica emphasized.
"We are unbeaten in the last six games, but we have not been able to maintain the lead in the games in which we took the lead. We will start the break after the match with Fenerbahçe. We want to show the best face of Besiktas. We need to have a winning approach. We want to continue with victories."
Qazim Laçi was one of the best in Rizespor. Altin Zeqiri played from the 60th minute for this team.
