There is a clear penalty on Icardi. VAR reviewed it for 4 seconds and play continued. The VAR referee should be punished."

"No one will prevent Galatasaray's championship. Galatasaray is heading towards a clean championship it deserves. We want the VAR referee in this match to be punished. Our path is the championship. We will do whatever is necessary, both at the table and on the pitch, until the end. We will not let these ill-intentioned people take away Galatasaray's rights."
