The reason for Fenerbahçe falling out of the title race has been revealed!

Fenerbahçe, which is fighting for the championship in the Super Lig, drew 0-0 against Konyaspor in their away match. Following this result, Fenerbahçe sits 6 points behind Galatasaray with 3 weeks left in the league.

The real reason for Fenerbahçe falling behind in the title race, after starting the league with a 10-match winning streak but subsequently losing momentum, has been revealed.

Sports Digitale Editor-in-Chief Yağız Sabuncuoğlu addressed the relationship between head coach İsmail Kartal and the players on the team during a broadcast he joined after the Konyaspor-Fenerbahçe match. Sabuncuoğlu claimed that İsmail Kartal had issued an ultimatum to the players.

THE DAY HE ISSUED THE ULTIMATUM TO THE PLAYERS

Yağız Sabuncuoğlu stated: ''Up to a certain point, İsmail Kartal was asking for the opinions of Tadic, Fred, and Dzeko. Later, things turned into a conflict with the players. The day he issued an ultimatum to the players, Fenerbahçe lost the championship. The players severed all ties with the coach. Bonucci made a scene when he learned he was not in the squad.''

Former footballer and program commentator Serhat Akın claimed that Fenerbahçe defender Leonardo Bonucci kicked the doors during the ensuing argument.

WHAT DID İSMAİL KARTAL SAY?

Fenerbahçe head coach İsmail Kartal, in the press conference held after the 0-0 draw against Konyaspor, said: "Actually, we didn't start the match very well, but we still found 2-3 chances in the first half. We aimed to score in the second half and win the match. My players did everything they could from the beginning to the end of the match. The responsibility is mine. We entered 7-8 very clear positions. We didn't expect this. We are continuing the race. Our chances continue mathematically. I cannot say anything about hope; we did our best until the last match."
