                Responding to the fan's comments, Samuel Eto'o said they will finish at the tenth position by the end of the season. Should this not happen, Eto'o promised to give the fan €100.000.
                Antalyaspor are presently tailing the Turkish after picking barely three points in seven outings this season. They meet giants Besiktas this weekend.
