Fenerbahçe defeated Hatayspor 2-0 away in the Süper Lig. Following the match, Fenerbahçe executive Selahattin Baki made statements.
Selahattin Baki said, "It was an extremely emotional and challenging match for us. I congratulate our coach, our fans, and our team. We have an important match on Thursday as well. We played intelligently today and won the match. We have turned a difficult corner on the path to the championship. However, there are some things that need to be discussed even when winning. When the name Atilla Karaoğlan was announced, there was a reaction from the fans. We also had our doubts. Looking at today, it has become clear how justified our doubts were. Let's look at the generous yellow cards he showed to Fenerbahçe. When our opponent committed the same positions for which we were given yellow cards, no cards were issued. We were given 5 yellow cards, our opponent was given 1 yellow card. Putting everything else aside, the red card not given in the 85th minute cannot be explained in any way from a sporting perspective."
FOREIGN REFEREE FOR THE SUPER CUP
Selahattin Baki stated that a foreign referee should officiate the Super Cup match and added the following:
"The president of our arch-rival had said several times, 'This federation is our federation, we elected them, we are satisfied.' Last week, for some reason, they suddenly made a statement saying, 'This is the worst federation in football history, we want their resignation.' We want to conduct a sincerity test. We have already been concerned about referee performances for a long time. They reached this level last week. In that case, let both arch-rivals apply for a foreign referee for the Super Cup in Urfa. Let's see their sincerity as well."
