MKE Ankaragücü hosted Çaykur Rizespor at home in the 15th week of the Süper Lig.
Chaos erupted as soon as the final whistle blew in the match, which ended 1-1. Ankaragücü President Faruk Koca entered the pitch and punched match referee Halil Umut Meler. After falling to the ground from the blow, Meler was also kicked while on the ground.
This attack on FIFA-licensed referee Halil Umut Meler also made headlines in the world press.
TFF President Mehmet Büyükekşi stated, "We have postponed all matches indefinitely. We will make a statement regarding the status of the leagues in the coming days. We will meet again."
On the other hand, a striking claim has been made regarding Halil Umut Meler.
According to a report by A Spor, it is alleged that referee Halil Umut Meler told those who came to visit him in the hospital, "That's enough for me."
