Fenerbahçe has been drawn against Greece's Olympiacos in the UEFA Conference League quarter-finals. The first leg will be played in Athens on April 11, and the second leg will be played in Istanbul on April 18.
The yellow-navies will be deprived of their supporters in the away match due to a penalty previously imposed by the UEFA Disciplinary Committee. According to reports in the Greek press in recent days, upon the recommendation of UEFA, there will be no red-and-white supporters at the match in Istanbul for security reasons.
WE ARE NOT AT WAR WITH THE TURKS
Following this development, Olympiacos fans released a statement announcing that they are against the Fenerbahçe away match ban and that they want to go to Istanbul. In the statement made by the leading fan group of the Greek team, Gate 7, it was stated, 'We have no war with the Turks, and we have no fan rivalry with Fenerbahçe fans.'
GREECE AND TURKEY ARE NOT AT WAR
In the statement, which mentioned the meaninglessness of being banned from the football match in Istanbul after having traveled there for the Anadolu Efes game, it was stated, "Greece and Turkey are not at war like Russia and Ukraine; furthermore, friendly steps have been taken. It is impossible for Olympiacos fans not to be there for this historic and important challenge of our team."
